受験
シーズン真っ盛り
のんびりマイペースのうちの娘も、その受験を経験しています
「ケ・セラ セラ」(=なるようになる) がモットーの娘の受験は超、いやウルトラスーパーマイペース🤣
長くなるので中学受験は割愛しますが、大学受験もあいも変わらずの〜んびり
そもそも親からしてのんびりで、妻は塾の保護者向け説明会で「気分が悪くなる」ほど、お尻をガンガン叩く先生の話に
「そこまでしなければ受からないと言うのなら受験はうちには合わない」
と言って辞めてしまいました
とは言っても、娘には
「うちは浪人はさせない」
「どこも受からなければどこかに奉公に出す」
と時代遅れの脅し文句で妻なりに娘のお尻を叩いていました
でも当人はどこ吹く風🤪
よく「寝る時間を削って」勉強すると言いますが彼女の場合は、「勉強する時間を削って」寝ていました😪
されば神頼み
湯島天神⛩に家族で行ったところ本殿に行き着くには何時間？というほどの長蛇の列
すると娘は
「こんなところで並んで風邪ひいたら元も子もないから帰ろう」
「受かる人は受かる
」
と言い放って帰ってきてしまいました
門之助🤞
Entrance examination season.
Laid-back and does things at her own pace, my daughter has also experienced entrance examination in her life twice; junior high and university.
Considering her motto is “Lo que será, será”, it’s not surprising that her life as a student preparing for the exams were super, but it was more than that.
I mean, ULTRA super laid-back days.
I’m not going to talk about her life preparing for junior high entrance exam today because I’m afraid it’s going to be too long.
Let me just explain her days as a high school student.
In the first place, we as parents were rather laid-back.
My wife came home telling an inciting instructor at a parent teacher meeting saying “If insane passion for the exam is the only way to her success as you have just said, then I don’t think that’s her way to choose.”
But still, she kept telling my daughter to study hard otherwise we would not pay for another year, instead we would ask someone to have her as an apprentice, just like an old days.
Despite all those words, my daughter didn’t care much about her critical situation.
People often say they study hard by cutting sleeping hours but her case is opposite.
She cut her studying hours to sleep.
Then we went to Yushima Tenjin to pray as nd asked for help.
But when we reached there, there were hundreds of people lining up in front of the temple in chilly weather.
Then she said decisively, “it’s misplacing the priority if I catch a cold now” “those who can pass, will pass” and we came home.
