An ugly duckling into a swan
It’s another birthday in the family, and tonight we celebrate Andrea, my 2nd girl’s 17th birthday. Has to be tonight as she is busy at school till 7pm.
Funny how birthdays bring back lots of flashbacks from 17 years past. And looking back, I think its wonderful to still keep happy memories of the past.
I’m truly proud of her and her achievements. She’s been 1st in class, had 7As in her UPSR, had 16As during her PMR exams, has been the organising chairman of many school activities, represents her school in a Bahasa Malaysia Forum, and is the Scout Troop Chairman. A true accomplishment considering she is a non chinese in a chinese private school.
I’ve been asking her to write an ebook giving tips to other students how she balances her time to achieve so much, yet still finds the time to prepare for her Grade 7 piano exams, and volunteers at an orphanage.
Would any parent buy this $7 ebook to inspire their children? I certainly would. If you would like to get it when it’s completed, please tell me and I will keep you updated.
