Hah, Namu looking 'academically inept'. Righteo. :mad1:

Back on topic: I just found some motivation to do well at school.
It's not really a bribe but.. Well, I get more freedom if I do well :rofl:
My mum found out I truanted nearly two weeks towards exam period and she didn't care 'cause I had decent marks

Yay for freedom

Not bribes as much as threats.
I thought that my dad physically couldn't approve of results until my sister got her UAI (98.9), which he seemed happy with. Well, at least he didn't say something like
"So, where did the other 1.1 points go?"

I get bribed with food, a place to live...and staying at a snotty nosed private school.

 

[paperplanes]

my motivationis that i want the UAI that i want so that i can live out my dream and not let myself down and going " i wonder what would have happened if I..."

This.

I don't get bribed. My parents are the tight ass type of asian parents

*puts on asian accent* 'Ohh no - you study hard for good future, benefit you not me'. *takes off asian accent*

I agree with them though.

 

[georgefren]

LOL i need more hard drives. Just a 250gb and a 320gb external now... my anime goes on DVDs when there's no space left . Suspension is an option, but you could always get a larger case ^^

Yeah i sort of get the whole "wow you know a lot about computers, you like games, anime, are practical and you don't like wearing make up oO" a lot but eh i'm used to it and people love me for it

oh man thats exactly how my parents sound lol

That's how mine are except it's much, much more subtle. They know if they pressure me too much i'll completely do the opposite (or so they fear).

I have never been bribed when it comes to education. My parents have taught me that it is a priveledge, not a right. I have seen the effects of what not having an education can do. Thats motivation enough for me
