I'm sooooo tired

It's been such a stressful and tiring week. Ya, you guess it, exams again! Just so tired of nagging and nagging at the kids. Dunno what to do with them. Dunno how to get them to be more serious about their studies and exams. Think I'll hv to re-strategise and come up with other methods to 'push' them and get them to be more anxious about their work. Getting so breathless thinking about all these. sigh...

And then, my dad has been giving me another set of headaches. I dun think he did it on purpose, but he's been watching so much of those Chinese 'dong dong chiang' wayang this whole week!!?? and of all times, he must watch in the afternoon when I'm doing revision and practices with the kids! Dun he realise it's exam week? I just dun understand. After so many years, they never change. During those days when I was schooling, it was the same thing. TV was forever on. They didnt care whether exam or not exam. They continued to blast the TV and totally not concerned whether I could focus or not. And now they're doing it again, albeit at a lower volume. It really gives me migraine you know?

If it had been 10yrs ago, I would hv showed my frustration and made him switch it off already! But I've mellowed so much, probably bcos of aging also la. I've learned to be more tolerating and patience, esp towards my folks. Afterall, they're getting old and after being stubborn for 70+yrs, how to expect any changes? Just hv to look at the brighter side lor and think of the happy moments with them.

Seriously, I dun dislike my folks. I love them very very dearly and I cant imagine how I will feel losing them one day. And I know they love me and my siblings too. It's just their habits that I cant tahan at times. I realise I've become really really naggy after they moved in with me. And I'm not liking it at all. It can really be very tiring having to deal with 2 old folks and 3 kids in a household. Sometimes I dun even hv anytime to myself in a day!! Can u imagine, I dun even hv the freedom to not talk for a day! Where's my life?? haiz...
