pressure

In Japan 9th graders needs to take an exam to get into High School. Out of 21 students, 14 went and sat the pre-test. They had to write a self-PR and go through an interview with a panel. They did this last Thursday.
Today they got their results back :) Out of the 14, ten passed with flying colours. The pressure is off them now. I feel like such a proud sister. I've watched these kids grow from tiny awkward 7th graders, to proud self-assured 9th graders. I'll miss them when they graduate in 21 days.
To those 4 who failed, there's always the second test and I'm sure they will certainly pass that;) Life's all about second chances.

The weather's been strange lately! It's suppose to be really cold, but it has turned oddly warm. It's like Spring's already in the air. Heading to Taiwan next Saturday to see my family (^_^) YAY!!!
