When I was around 4 years of age, mom wanted to send me to the
upper class of kindergarten school of her choice which was not far from our
house.
Mom didn’t want to send me to the lower class of
kindergarten as she thought it would be waste of time and money. The upper
class subjects were only singing, playing, physical exercises, learning to read
and write the alphabet.
When the new student registrations were opened, she went to
register me there. But, the registration committee didn’t allow her to register
me as I was not 5 years of age yet. Then, she went home with disappointed and
annoyance.
After dad was back from work, she told what was going on and
he said, “Let me do it”. The next day, he went to the school and bumped his old
friend as it turned out, he was the Head of the New Student Registration Committee.
Then, dad told him about my rejected registration and his
old friend said, “如果你太太说她是。。。太太，我就让你孩子进我们学校 (if your wife said that she is
... (dad’s
name)'s wife, then I will let your child enter our school”.
THANKS A LOT, ABBA JESUS! I was directly accepted.
Personally, I think school entry should be based on students’
ability, not age as ABBA JESUS created us as a unique person with difference
intelligence, ability, and talent. Let alone, I was only several months
less than the requirement age.
During my school life, many friends were younger than me, not just a few months apart but also almost a year
apart and the youngest
friend was a lazy but a genius one.
For me, when I had problems in my study, I just prayed to
ABBA JESUS and HE always helped me (Saved from the Failed Preparation Phase, Semester/National Exams, and Thesis).
