Chatting with one of my adoptive mothers.

She's always got the right things to say.
I cried.

She told me to try and exert everything on the final stretch instead of just 'dying' at the back as the others sprint forward.
Think of it as a race, she says.

She's just telling me to do better. I don't have to ace the exams, but she knows I can.

"You've got the legs, girl, go use them! I can imagine you, too... with the right background music. Slow-mo effect pa after you hit the finish line! xD"

Thanks Tita Meg.

[I just hope I don't let everyone down again.]
