What Homemaker?

Holiday,holiday,holiday..
I'm almost restless now.A month passed by just like a gust of wind which blows in these torrid days:empty,humid,miserable and definitely ennui.Nothing significant.I have too much free time.Yup,and when that happens my brain begins to put on it's own thinking cap instead of what I demanded.A lot of things comes to mind,all at once and you will start wondering further and further which one comes first and which are next.

I do not look for a job as I'm planning to go through journals,researches and books to figure out my thesis topic for my final year.I'm considering psycholinguistic as one of the area I would go beside considering sociolinguistic as well.(Sigh,I know someone will give me a nerd look for this)
I'm supposed to learn italian and french too..to the extend where I can at least read the children story books.My progress?Nothing much really.. I seem to have wasted my holiday trying to figure out new recipes (they taste awful!) and coping with the piano lessons.It feels better hitting the remote control than the keys at times but overall,it's satisfying.And the piano?It's a different story already.I never thought I'd ever get the chance to play and now I do!It's like a dream come true.Our house now is polluted with noises caused by my sister,me and even my mum sometimes.
Apart from the mundane routine and the fascinating piano,the one thing that I'm obliged to do is dealing with house chores and look after my sister.So,except for paying bills and handling the rubbish bin,and teaching her add math,I'm the woman :P
At first things seem okay and perfect:everything is spic and span,in order and going according to plan.But,when my taller-than-me and rebellious sister starting to get on my nerves,I'm afraid I might have wrinkles already.Now I think I get it why some said that raising a child is the toughest job in the world.We can't simply be selfish.See,toddlers and babies are adorable,children can be noisy but truly charming,and bigger than that are nuisance!But thanks to her,I learned what PATIENCE means.It takes all of me to cope with her temperamental change of mood.I started to wonder if I was like that when I was in her age and I did.*Grin*

Again,I never thought we would be able to sit down together and talk like a BFF when I finally decided to give myself in and listen to the stuff she does in school which I previously brush aside by telling her,"been there,done that.." Aiks,I found out that she's quite secretive and I'm determined to change that..hopefully.So,in spite of this hebetudinous days I do pick up something useful that might come in handy if I were to have kids of my own in the future.What amused me recently is that I can't believe I'm watching the "Nanny 911" show..I thought it would be jejune and banal but it's not.
