Madness

Mood: Proud
Listening to: chitchat

Dana's recognition got moved to the 31st. My daughter as expected was bummed about it. She was anticipating that moment of receiving her honors. Well...just a few days of waiting time won't hurt. Told her I would just be treating her out....she wants the works.  Like men, if you give an inch they'd want the whole 9 yards...lol.

Leila's recognition in any case went well. Aside from the speaker who I might say is a stupid bloke. The speaker is an alumni holding a high position in the John Hay Corporation. He was comparing the prices of tuitions of my kids school to other schools in our city. One of his sentences goes: "YMCA is a school that harbors good competition with regards to prices because it gives out quality education at a less costly cost."  Hungggh!! That physically hurt my ears not only my intellect.

The hubby and I were laughing our asses off when he tried to compare teachers to talent managers. Not satisfied with that he compared them to turtles and frog too.  Not a good analogy....even with kindergartens as his audience. Are we so hard up with intelligent speakers that we have to just bear with the ignorance and stupidity of our said leaders?

My mom would have a heart attack if she finds out her beloved granddaughter is studying in that school.

My daughter got her just reward for being good. She got honors and a best in math ribbon. I went up for the first...pinned the ribbon on her and smiled with eyes abnormally squinting (I just got from a graveyard shift again). My daughter signalled to me that she wants her "tatay"  to come up for her next ribbon which was surprisingly on the math thingy. Onell went up posed like a hunkie on the ramp and proudly pinned that ribbon on our daughter.

Both of us seemed dazed. Me with lack of sleep and him with his daughter getting an award for Math.

Looking forward to my eldests' recognition rites.
