the world according to…

The world according to… my 3.5 year old daughter:

- The kindergarten she’s attending is not called a kindergarten. It’s called a ‘school’ because she would never attend a kindergarten.

- The day she becomes a ‘grown up’ is the day she knows how to use the porcelain bowl at the toilet in the mall. She should be
about 10 years old then.

- If she ever misbehaves when she becomes a grown up, a hyena will materialize out of nowhere and eat her dress.

- When her father dies (that’s me), she’d have to inconveniently drive the black family car to the zoo herself. She should be about 10 years old by then.

- All animals have stinking backside. Ergo, if your backside stinks, you must be an animal.

- The singular for ‘horse’ is ‘whore’. (explanation here)

- Old people should keep short and curly hair, they shouldn’t ever grow long straight hair. Vice versa (young people shouldn’t keep curly hair)

- Every man should know how to sing Foreigner’s ‘Waiting for A Girl Like You’ because it is a VERY nice song.

- Coffee is for men. Children and women should not drink coffee.

- She’s not obliged to go for a bath if she is not sweating.

    Wow, 3.5 years ago, I was reading an entry about your wife giving birth. Now 3.5 years later, I am reading an entry on what your daughter thinks. Time flies!!!

    Happy new year, Mike :D
    Nice to see Regine inherited your snappy-punchline ability.

    Quinn / Silencers – Yeah, she’s like me. But that’s probably because I’ve been teaching her the unconventional stuff i.e. “A bear is a very dangerous animal. It will not hesitate to kill you. If you see a bear, run.”

    mott – True, except that her definition of ‘sweating’ might not be what you think… (only if visible, sweat under her shirt does not count)

    xes – Yeah, time passes by very fast indeed. I’d have to worry about enrolling her to a primary school next year…
