Profile ![]() I'm constantly broke and struggling to save enough money to fly to Korea to marry my future husband (see below). This derp is my one true love. But I also love dramas, TV, music, movies, kpop and cooing over my beloved OTPs. One day I will travel the world and do great things. In the meantime, don't forget to send the naked band boys on 30 December. I accept all nationalities. Thank you. Xiexie. Kamsamhamnida. |

"At least, even though we only focus on the bad, we still talk it through like mature adults." Those are their exact words, I swear. You're talking about how bad my Chinese results are, and you want me to act like a mature adult? And then my dad gave me some stupid metaphor ("You think your enemies will tell you how good you are? They obviously want to deprove you." Well, gee, doesn't that make you the enemy?), which I take for a half-assed attempt at excusing their lack of focusing on anything remotely good. I guess what he means (and I'm making a reeeeeeally rough guess here) is that the reason they're focusing so much on the bad is so that I'll be encouraged to improve. Well someone obviously needs to take some parenting courses. You don't tell your child that they suck, and expect them to be motivated to improve! The more they talk about how bad my results are, the more I care less about them. Parents should really learn to get off their children's cases more, seriously. My Grades Bio: A1 CS: A1 EM: A1 AM: A2 Eng: B3 CH: C5 Chi: D7 Now aren't these the worst grades in the world? The way my parents talk about them, it must as well be. 7:17 PM
