Being Compared, Getting Compared
Asian parents LOVE comparing their kids to other kids. THAT is a fact of asian life. So are maths and money; just ask the Asian kid sitting beside you. "Why can't you be like your sister? Why can't you beat your cousin?!" It pisses me off. It really does. I don't understand how my parent's can't understand the fact that I suck at maths or my fingers aren't long enough to reach an octave on the piano. Maybe that's why. But no. They don't take that into consideration. It's just a straightforward "YOU SUCK IN EVERY WAY". What pisses me off even more is the fact that they ignore your better days and make it the worst. In a really stupid way. "Hey Mum! I scored full marks in my maths test!" "NOT GOOD ENOUGH!! Well your brother/sister scored 200%!! Why can't you do that?!" Cue the onslaught of WTF's. You see? Even full marks isn't good enough. You think I've finished. Better wait, I'm not done yet. You see, my parents have a very close group of friends, each and everyone of them dedicated to degrading their poor child. And every time they have dinner together, they spend that time degrading their kid as much as possible, IN FRONT of the victim. Yes, harsh I know. Want more? Here's a little; they exaggerate beyond the recognition of truth. "...*blahblahblah* my daughter's music theory exam". "Really? How'd she go?" "OMYGEE so screwed it up so badly. She got like...90/100. See? My daughter can't study for crap etc etc" I understand that many of them come from harsh pasts, I'll give them that. But does it make it necessary to make the child's life absolute hell? Telling them that everyone gets decent scores except you? Really. And when it comes to a maths test, they are on your heels more than anything else. Me, yes. You, likely :] Sighs...now that I come to think of it...I really do suck at studying for tests. I get to involved in doing stuff like Facebooking and updating this blog. Man, I suck. Oh well. Huh? You telling me to study instead of updating this? Heh heh. NO WAY >D Laters, ♥Kookiemonstah.xx
