Apart from sending JS to and fro from school daily (mon-fri), I’m on the road more since last month. Monday afternoon and Tuesday night for Chinese class, Thursday night for music Friday night for maths. Sometimes it’s like I haven’t even heated up the cushion at home and I’m out from the house again. Schedule got a little disrupted and minus of those marketing/shopping time, it’s like I barely have enough time to finish off a task without interruption. With a little time here and there left in between on the road, I actually cant acomplish much I wanted to do at home.
I’m one that hate commuting and driving around places… I rather sit at home..but now, look what I’m getting myself into. So often than not this happen in my mind, one side of me say “Sit home la…skip class, lazy to drive out” but another side of me will “get your lazy butt up….do it for your girl, it’s for her good“In the name of JS’s benefit. The KIASU MUM syndrome.
How long can this last, I dont know….maybe one day I’m tired of driving in and out I will totally give up on sending her to these enrichment classes. I had promised myself before not to send her to too many of these classes (so that I dont have to drive out so often, so that she can have much relaxing time at home) ….but I’m eating my own words.
I really dont know how these mum in the big city does it..sending their kids from one class to another almost daily. Dont they feel tire driving in and out and getting caught in the jam? Secretly making a vow again that when we go back to the city, when JS started formal schooling…I dont want to send her to too many extra classes…. I just hate driving around.
