Toddler Steps #893 'The Summer of an Examinee'

As summer vacation was coming to an end

On the table
Textbooks, problem sets, and notebooks
My son was spreading them out grandly and focusing

I took a peek at his hands as he concentrated
What was written in that notebook was
Some kind of spell? Some kind of code?
Mysterious numbers and symbols that looked like that

The moment he chose the science track
I had realized it a long time ago, but
Once again, I realized that with my own knowledge and abilities
I could never understand
The things he is learning...

Among the many things
Overflowing on the table
I discovered something interesting!

'Entrance Examination Guidelines'

I asked my son if I could take a look, but
The contents were packed with complicated things!
It didn't sink in after reading it just once
I hate these kinds of documents

When I was taking my own exams
Did I have a booklet like this??

The summer of senior year, the summer of exams

No matter what people around him say
In the end, it is his own life

Back then, I
Found the voices from the sidelines noisy
And above all, annoying

That is why, now that I am a parent
Regarding what my children do
I will not interfere

I just hope he spends his time
Without any regrets

Even so...
The feeling that it is finally time
Has inevitably started to drift in

I'm rooting for you!

Have a great day today too✨
