Yesterday I received the IELTs result. I ended up getting quite good results. For listening which I was really confident, I only had 7.5 pts. I was saying the reading test was difficult in my previous blog and I probably did not do well but ended up I scored 8.5/9. As for the writing test, I was really not confident after the reading test, I did not think I write legibly for writing test but I had 7 pts. The oral test i scored 7 pts even though I thought I was not speaking to question asked. I was already so tired that I just wanna get over it. The Average scores for the students for Academic testing was 5-6 pts and I actually could pull through with a 7.5 pts. No bad since i was really dog tired after the test and really not look forward for another test. Joe was most delighted as he can now proceed to apply for my PR. Now that I have endured the cold winter and weather has turned warm again, I am actually quite happy to be in this country. Now I bring Channery to the park every morning and we always have good fun chasing after the birdies. Today we even lie down on the grass and check the passing clouds. Maybe I am feeling very happy so thinks the whole world is smiling with me.
Yesterday night the boys were not very happy as they were under pressured to finish their homework. We have been telling them to do their homework since Monday but they kept putting them off. Charlynn finished hers on Monday and she was relaxed and happy. Chantz ended up hving tension headache and had to go to sleep early and Charles had a nervous breakdown and got into tantrum throwing. Joe kept harping they had only themselves to blame and they ought to bear the consequences. Chantz woke up early today to finish his Chinese homework due today but could not finish. I helped him by holding his hand and completed the work on time. Told him he had to pay back by writing the words again this weekend. As parents we should guide them and sometimes being hardhearted is essential. Now I put channery to bed by scratching her tummy 20 times only and kiss her goodnite. No more staying in bed with her and getting angry. So far it works for me and she had been cooperative. She woke up in the middle of nite two nites ago and I came over and just do the same. She did not act up and jsut go back to sleep. Well! I am glad things are going better now for me.
This Sunday is Australia's Father's day and wondered how we are going to celebrate with Joe. Children have not mentioned anything and we will wait and see.
