We met Nicole's class teacher Theresa this morning in what is a typical end-of-semester tete-a-tete. Overall she said Nic is intelligent but very playful. Her grades are better than the previous year's but Mandarin (75/100) is still her weakest subject. She was thrilled to score 100 for her English - we're glad too.
I can smell a kid whether intelligent or not and the most daring and play a fool ones,are the best!!!!Like Einstein said,they only use 10% of their brains and still can survive a lot of hurdles.The 21st century will be in the hands of the chinese and the language too.
ReplyDeleteHey! Johnny Logan is supergeil!He is the only person who had won the Eurovision singing contest twice.With such romantic songs,you will only find me at the parties,in very dark corners!That was my very bad habit.
At the moment,I'm watching this contest and the semi-finals.Since the iron curtain was torn apart,there are too many countries taking part,39 of them ,I think.Finals on Saturday.Are you ready for the World Cup or you have to do babysitting?
Go Brazil! As a kid I backed Holland in the 1974 and 1978 WC Finals but they lost both times to the host nation (Germany & Argentina). The Dutch attacking play was second to none.
ReplyDeleteBut as a footballer I always emulated the Germans as I am not very talented but had to compensate with discipline.
Susan complains that I scold all my teammates - only the ones who muck around. I was quite competitive back then.
