Golden sentences.
I wonder why parents always like to compare us with others but when we compare ourselves with others, they would be like “Don't compare with others, compare with yourself! There's no point winning others, just win yourself!”.
For example, we took back our report book, results quite good and got improvement, and so we happy happy show parents expecting some kind of reward.
Parents: *looks at result* “Not too good la! Your this uncle's son got so-and-so results ah, your that aunt's daughter got lalala result ah and my friend's don't know is son or daughter got blah blah blah result ah, etc..........”.
We can't possible keep quiet with all those comparisons, so we will some kind of talk back la. (Maybe to me not to you.)
Child: “My this friend's result is blah blah blah la! That uncle's son got so-and-so result ah! This
Aunt's daughter even worst, gottttt.........(Parents cut in.)
Parents: (That golden sentences.) “Don't compare with others, compare with yourself! There's no point winning others, just win yourself!”.
Child: “I thought you're the one comparing me to this uncle's son, that aunt's daughter first! Why you always like to compare me to others but when I compare myself to others, you'll shoot that golden sentence?!?”
Parents: *Speechless...*

Why I suddenly thought of blogging this? It's because my mother's comparing me to this uncle's son, that aunt's daughter again just now! LOL!
So I shoot my golden sentences to her and she went speechless. HAHA! XD
Eh, I did not talk back with some rude tone hor! I talk back with joking tone, so don't say I anyhow scold my mother or what hor!
