re <<wise beyond her years>>

thank you rose, i thought so as well and still believe so, however the coconut re-wrote the piece, because the humanities teacher is looking for cogent / concise reasoning and logic, as opposed to descriptive and prose

i do not know what the final essay looks like

today erita has time to prepare for her math test

no schools for the kids. we are at T3 receding typhoon w/o rain (no black or red rain), which normally would mean that every establishment and schools are open as usual (if storm approaching, then merely 'get ready to go home / stay indoors')

a few more bamboo poles fell into our yard (the connecting path / stairs between up and down stairs) and lots of debris in the community compound / garage area.

for our area today, am sure the road clearing will take at least this day, and doubtful that public transport would be in operation. but electricity, water, gas, internet, cellular all working, so the system should recover soon. supermarket should be open, and restocking should be okay by tomorrow morning.

outside of our area the hk scmp.com situation is worse but the power is on,

macau scmp.com situation seems more serious than hk w/ 20,000 w/o power. they seem to have gotten a lot more rain and waves

the toughest teacher in the coconut's school (been there 30 years), teaching humanities, and big on logic and reasoning, and avoided by many kids if they can help it (elective), graded the coconut for a presentation, and for another essay exam

coconut thought for sure she was not going to do well as she got a C for the practice exam

she got A's, and is only 2 out of several dozen, and the only one to score 100.

we actually make sure we do NOT praise her for the score, but encourage her on the process.

the credit goes to my wife, as far as process is concerned

i like to believe the credit goes to me to any extent dna may matter :0)
