so the apparent fact is that i stay in sg to 'face the reality' instead of 'running away'.
surprisingly, my results were OK.

but they will never be satisfied.
no matter how well i do,
they'll only pick up those subjects that i did badly and give their long black faces.
sometimes i really get tired of explaining or promising them i will do better next time.

mom and dad, i want to score well myself.
i've tried very hard to live up to your expectations.
can't you see my efforts and struggles?
mom and dad, sometimes praises work better than scoldings.
mom and dad, i love you still.
and forgive me for those harsh words and cold stares.
