time flies so quickly, before i know it, i am already on the second week of the month-long June holidays and it will soon come to an end. it does not bother me, for i have little to look forward, but i wonder, what should i do for the remainder of the holidays
now, i have a rather monotonous schedule: i wake up, then watch television. shortly after, i will be forced to start labouring till lunch. after the hour long lunch, i will start to work again, so that i will be rewarded with computer time. just to summarise, life during holidays revolve around work and play.
i always hope for a single spark of excitement in my holiday life, perhaps an excursion to brighten up the mundane holidays this June. alas, all these hopes are dashed by the single fact that my brother is Primary 6 this year and has to study for the dreaded PSLE.
no one escapes PSLE, i think to myself as memories of that laborious year flood into my mind, now i understand how my brother felt last year when he urged my mother time and again for an outing, but was turned face down. i remember how disappointed he must have been for sharing the same cruel fate as me, though he did not have to sit for the test.
i realise how selfish i had been with the mindset of 'i can't have any fun, why can he'. this has led to much quarrels between us.now, my wish is to let time fly more quickly so that i can play again, i know this is a rather selfish resolution to have, because my brother's studying time will be drastically reduced, but i cant help it, this holiday will be a boring one i bet!
