Currently listening to: Someday We’ll Know– New Radicals
Someday we’ll know
Why Sampson loved Delilah
One day I’ll go
Dancing on the moon
Someday you’ll know
That I was the one for you
Over Thanksgiving, we (my brother, cousins, and I) were laughing about a saying when we were younger.
Grades:
A is for acceptable
B is for bad
C is for can’t eat dinner
D is for don’t come home
F is for find a new family
It was funny but at the same time, it wasn’t. That’s the kind of scrutiny we were under growing up when it came to school. The high academic expectation was and still is real.
There was a lot of pressure to excel in everything since my parents risked it all to come to America so that I could have a better life (or so they say, because quite honestly, I think I would have been fine in the motherland regardless, although I have to admit that the opportunities here are endless). At least that’s what they told me 10921289234 million times.
