Day off school, no need to go to school but chinese class, woke up late but I had to get my chinese hwk finished so I was pratically rushing it but thanx goodness the teacher was a nice one! LOL! The teacher told me I have improved with my mandarin and reading skills! I was soooooo happy! What a lovely thing to know! At least I didn't waste my parent's money and I'm glad I didn't! I think I still have a lot of things to improve in mandarin and chinese and I am happy and willing to improve them because I know it is good for me and I need it, I'm sure I won't regret it too!Dad told me a lot of stuff about the WW2 history today. I was asking him about the Pearl Harbour and Japan stuff and everything. He was willing to tell me about them and I think it is quite suitable for him to become a History teacher! LOL! He does seem to love talking about history and telling people about the past! Wah wah wah! Today was a big day! Not because I had to go to chinese school but what happened at home Sadly, there was a huge arugument over a tiny weeny stuff and my mum and brother started yelling at each other! It was really tough and annoying but we got through it. My dad got angry at mummy too because of her big reaction towards that tiny thing, they started yelling at each other too. For some reason, at that momment, I was really calm. I didn't start shouting at them or yell with them. I was the only one that was still me, the one that knew what I was doing. I told my brother to stop and my mum to stop and my dad to stop, I even told my brother to go to his room and calm down! The biggest thing was, my brother listened to me...he did what I told him. He went to his room however my mum and dad was pissed at eachother. My mum still didn't calm down so I pulled her to a room and talked to her calmly, I started persuading her and tell her some reasons why they reacted that way and what she did wrong. I talked to her calmly while my mum just listened. I'm not sure if she understood but at the end, she stopped her nonsense, she stopped her blabbering and angry tone. She said, " sorry" to me. I told her she didn't have to say story to me because I understood how she felt at that momment. Each person had different personalities and that is the thing that makes us all react differently and how we see each thing's importance. When I finished talking to mum, I went to talk to my dad. He was the tough one. I asked him if he was angry at mum, he said no. I didn't believe him, but he said he wasn't. I started talking to him and asking him did he think his reaction towards mum was wrong? He answered my questions and we talked through them. After all the talking I did, I felt exhausted! But I was proud of myself. I was proud that I had the guts the go up there and sort things out between everyone. After this incident, I believe I did grow older and maturer. I knew how to accept and react to different situations and I am glad I have a calm personality. One where I could listen and one where I could fight back. Although this was a devasting problem in the family, I think it was a challenge to me. I believe it was something to make me grow older and a test to see what I can do. Maybe a test made by God. To see which one of us can take care of situations. I'm the youngest but that doesn't mean I am the weakest!
