SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 22

I always feel like Sundays are the worst. Okay, maybe it was just today or it always is.

Sundays tend to be a reminder of upcoming danger and by upcoming danger I mean SCHOOL.

The minute I realise it is a Sunday my heart gets saddened . Just knowing that in a few hours I will be at school, makes Sundays one of the worst days for me.

I think another reason why Sundays are the worst could be because of having an annoying guardian at home.

Don't get me wrong, I love having my aunt at home but sometimes it can get really annoying. Especially when I get scolded for failing at one or two things.

This time I deserved it ,but I don't think I deserved the amount of scolding she gave me.

To be as humble as I can be, I am quite a good cook. Well, good is an understatement I was born to cook.

With all my humility , I recognise that what happened today was nothing but a mistake.

I may have overcooked the meat . Okay, honestly speaking, I burnt it to the point were it became black but can't it still be eaten?

It's not like I will always be the great cook I am every other day. I should have given maximum attention like I normally do but I didn't and for that: I acknowledge that I was wrong .

Well, it's not like I do that all the time. I don't understand why my aunt had to make a huge fuss about it.

"Terra, you are so incompetent ..."

"Terra, is there anything you can do right?"

"Can you even cook water without scorching it?"

Bla, bla, bla...

I sometimes feel like she just doesn't appreciate . I never do anything wrong. I try to be the best niece I can be, but looks like my efforts are absolute crap.

Why do I always feel like it can never be easy to be the child if you have such judgemental guardians.

She acts like she is so perfect. How many times does she forget to do her own laundry?

A grown woman who leaves her underwear for me to wash, isn't that imperfection at its highest level?

I just don't want to embarrass her so much because I actually respect her, but if I was to list the things she has done wrong , it would probably fill turn thousand pages and I am talking about the letters having small spacing.

I understand she works hard to get every dime but I didn't really mean to waste the meat like that.

A good and understanding parent would respond this way:

"Sweety, you always cook amazing dishes and I understand that you have a lot on your mind ,but next time, don't allow your worries to keep you from focusing on what you're good at. Now, allow me to order some pizza but next time don't make this mistake again."

Now that's how a sensible parent should sound like. But which parent can ever be that understanding ?

Anyways, as an understanding child. I will understand that she is right and try to pay more attention.

But that does not mean I am not upset with her... I am very upset. Actually, I am trying to contain all my anger.

That woman needs to go to the school of appreciation , so that she can learn one or two things about appreciation .
