kids in 2005

did u guys read todays papers? UPSR results are out and yes the kids did well this year but what i'm stressing here is that the things or shall i saw "rewards" they get when they scored well......

OMG!!!!!!!

my time.... i bearly had anything for my UPSR....

but this girl... she got a RM2000 handphone, a trip to HONG KONG (most probably to Disneyland) and that's not enough! ANG POW!!!! i'm speechless... i feel it's too much for a kid! u're like starting her off to be materialistic! she gets used to expensive things and trips... she'll be expecting more and more every year..... mind u, this is ONLY for her UPSR results... what happens when she finishes her PMR? a car? .... and what more her SPM? a house? a trip round the world? tsk tsk tsk... *shakes head in disbelief*....

fine.. she scored 7 As and if the parents can afford all that.. by all means.. go ahead.... but then.. dun la put in the papers.... tak malu meh? unless they like to be in the middle of attention la... if i were the girl.. i WOULD be estatic but i WOULD'T want the whole of Malaysia to know and read about my RM2000 hp-gift, HONG KONG trip and more ang pow!!....

i know some of u might think i'm jealous.. but just think about it... she's 12!!!!!! if this happens for her SPM... fine.. it wouldn't be THAT bad.... but she's ONLY 12!!!

kids nowadays just have all the luck.... sigh....
