Excited S1, Angry S2

With S1's impending school trip to Bali in less than two weeks, naturally, the fella is REALLY EXCITED. In addition to frolicking in the hotel pool, lazing on the beaches, and enjoying the customary Balinese performances, he will be going high-rope walking and white-water rafting too! Mind you...these 10/11 year olds will NOT be roughing it out. They will be staying in a FIVE. Yes.... FIVE Star Hotel that's located RIGHT ON the beach.









Envious?


S2 DEFINITELY IS!

He had been droning out "NOT FAIR" repetitively....that it really got on my nerves. So much so that I just want to slap him. What else did he say? "NOT FAIR. Kor-Kor always have fun. Now he is going to have sooooooo much fun. Five days of fun fun fun, and NO work! NOT FAIR. Mom....when Kor-Kor comes back, you MUST give him lots and lots of Maths to do!! Blah blah blah.."

Plus, he has been EXTRA unreasonable and nasty to S1. What can I do other than scream at him????

Poor S2.

1. True, it's not fair.
2. True it is not like you are being unfair to S2.
3. True it is something that S1 didn't ask for this trip but obviously organised by the school.

But S2 just needs to express his feelings I suppose.

Life is never fair, so we must all learn to get used to it and count our blessings.

I am sure S2's school trip will come when he gets to kor kor's age! :)

Judy - I did try to tell him that when he is in Year 6, he'll get to go to Bali. His remark was "we may not be here then!"...which is of course TRUE!!

Ling - Hi! Actually, he's right..don't think we'll still be in this country in 3 years time. My H do not want to stay too long. :-)

EastCoastLife - Where you think I am?? Not as bad as people think lah!!

MommyOf2Angels - You pretend to be a 10 year old girl lah.. You small size enough what. Hahahah...

WMD - Aiya..these kids very spoilt one lah. Don't think they can rough it out! S2 gets to go on a school trip next term..but only one night lah. If more than that, think the teachers will GO GILA!!!
