My Dear,
You lie there everyday, motionless,
Waiting for me, without complains.
I treat you badly;
I hit you whenever i pick you up,
Hitting all those dirty yellow things away.
No complains.
Sometimes i break your heart,
and that's when i change.
Racket racket, dearest racket.

Cont'd from yesterday: Cynical.
Fact: Everyone is cynical. From book 'Sway: The Irresistible Pull of Irrational Behaviour" by Ori and Rom Brafman, everybody always considers losing something, = pessimistic view = cynical.

Fresh start? Tuesday, July 07, 2009
3 changes of teachers: Econs, Maths and GP results in a terrible start to term 3. Add to that an incredibly annoying bus trip home, and you get fatigued.
It wasn't until a damn fed up woman shouted at the two kids to shut up, who were amazingly and extraordinarily noisy (add to that their mother didn't care) which made everything ever so much better. How i wanted to thank that woman!
Moving on to the role of parenting and its efficiency in today's age of new parents (Not applicable to our parents)
Parenting efficiency only occurs when there is allocative and productive efficiency.
Productive efficiency occurs when there the children are controlled at the most energy saving method. This is almost always never achieved nowadays as parents simply do not care about their freak noisy children.
Allocative efficiency occurs only when the right amount of parents are provided for the right amount of kids. Assuming that there can only be two parents, any which exceed the given 2 results in inefficiency. However, there are certain cases in which this is feasible, and as such this theory may not apply to all parents with >2 kids, ceteris paribus.
__________________________________
The presence of externalities also gives rise to parenting failure. Externalities are praising/scolding inflicted by other people (other than the parents) on the children, for which no compensation is given.

How wonderful.
A day off. And yet, it has to be wasted on going for a haircut due to hair check on Tuesday.
How wonderful.
