Last Saturday evening was my last tuition lesson with my girl because today is her English paper. As we were chatting, she told me she has to make it to Sec 3 exp next year because of the carrots dangling in front of her.

According to her, her mum promises anything she wants when she makes it. Her aunt promises any item from LV while her dad, a driving license and a CAR!

She told me 17 is the legal age to drive in Indonesia. So imagine getting a car at 17.

I wondered... If she is going to get all that just for getting into the express stream, what will happen when she does well for her O levels, and get into Uni etc, etc.. Will her dad buy her the whole of Manado (her hometown)?
