Go Through Mum to Get Around Dad!

Mothers are wonderful, aren't they? Fathers (also wonderful -- in a different sort of way!) always want what is best for their children, especially their sons. They impose manly expectations on their sons, often subsuming their feelings and real interests for the greater good of "what is best for a man"! But, moms? They hear how their children's hearts are beating, don't they, Brian?

Looks like mum helped you work things out! That's a good strategy: go through mum! I have a suggestion but I don't know if it will help you, but it is worth thinking about. If there are electives in your degree programme, why not take those that are related to psychology and excel in them? You will be proving to your father that your interest is backed by good performance as well. And, he may realise that you have the determination to carve a future in that field! What do you think?

Tell Kai Fu the same thing. Switching to Business Administration is fine but if you don't have an area of specialization, once you graduate, you may have to start as a salesman first. Is he prepared to do that? If he has a specialization, like finance or economics (I think he will be good in either if he can get interested in them!), he could get a good position in the banking/finance system and through it -- with experience -- move anywhere in the world! I think he would fit into a life like that.

And, please tell him to stop skipping classes; he is ruining his reputation, after a 4GPA!

By the way, what did you mean by "If I fail 1/2" and "XD"? The jargon is beyond me!

" If i fail 1/2 " = if i fail half

" XD " is an expression...it's equal to a " :D " (smiley face)

its rather the other way around...kai fu's becoming more popular with the lecturers...with his crazy jokes...and crazy humour
