jc life

ystdy, while driving the girls for the dance classes, joy was just sharing with me that, in her view, her easy-going character appears more suited for poly life rather than jc life.

she cited some examples how competitive the mates are in the college when it comes to retaining information (ie. not wanting to share them).

as a mom, all i told her was,"the real life is such. every one has an inner selfish desire. so, this is a prep platform to the real world in reality, when she starts to work!"

maybe, it's hard for her to comprehend. simply becoz' her sec sch friends are all very nice like her, willing to teach and impart knowledge.

of coz, with joy's maturity, it's not a regret choice for jc route. i guess, in life, our kids will encounter many situations that might take them backwards a little, but having someone to share at home (like ourselves), will certainly make her feel like being able to find an outlet for her emotions.

like what i said,"u should look beyond the less than 2-yr time frame...always believe in hard learning, then blissful enjoyment!"

truly, how many kids enjoy such sweetness of cozy life, that the moment they are thrown into the oceanic sea, the current would cause them to free-fall all the ways.

i was reading an article from reader's digest. a quote from bill clinton that the difference btwn people of today and past days is, the current ones have a choice and that's such a great privilege. so, he advocates that we should find sth we care about where we can make a difference with whatever time or money we have.

the way i interpret it is, find sth where ur passion can last.....
