Enchantment

Thank God for long hair. Dug out my long forsaken VS curler and started having fun with curls again.

I just wanna be alone.

I feel all topsy-turvy inside for all the wrong reasons. I feel PMS-sey and gawd that sucks a hell lot. Why won't my period just come?! This hey-i'm-coming-hey-i-don't-think-i'm-coming-yet feeling is making me hit the roof!

Gah.

To my dearest mom and dad whom I love so dearly

To this marvellous couple who had lavished me with all the love and care they possibly could since the very day I was brought into this world,

To mummy and papa,

as much as I love and care for you, sometimes the both of you can just make me shrivel up in anger. Many a times, I feel wrongly misunderstood.

Dad, you seem to always think that I don't give it my best shot. And that I don't put in enough effort in my studies. When you come back home at night after work, you'll ask me why aren't I studying and wasting my time on worthless activities instead (playing the com). You'll remark that you seldom see me spending time on the expensive education that you had worked so hard to put me through.

But dad, ask yourself this question. What time do you and mom come home at night? Most of the time it's midnight or past midnight.

What time do you go to work in the mornings? Earlier than I wake up.

So while you're working in the office, sometimes I'll be at home doing my revision and tutorials. I admit I don't revise every single day like some fucked up nerd, but I do spend time studying.

I don't understand why you won't believe me when I say I really do put in the effort. Of course you won't be able to see me studying at such an unearthly hr at the time you reach home. I'm not a machine who mugs 24/7!!

When I get a B for my test, you think it's because I did not prepare for it and jumped to one horrid conclusion: All play and no work makes Grace a daughter to be disappointed in.

?!?!?!

So what about being top in class? Scoring 7 points for Os? Scoring As in poly? Don't all that mean anything to you, or is that still not good enough for you?

If you're hoping for a genius of a daughter, sorry, but I'm no genius. I'm just an ordinary girl who has to work for her grades.

I've decided. I'm not gonna argue with you the next time you disbelieve in me again.

I've so much to say, but at times like now, I believe it's wiser to just keep mum. Well, actually it's cos I know once I start pouring out my feelings, it'll be hard for me to stop. So I shall put a stop here :p.

The best way to avoid a quarrel is keep quiet and imagine that you're softly blending into the background when their naggings threaten to shatter the windowpanes anytime.
