IT Competition

My daughter has an IT Competition today. It will be hold at 10am at school. Actually she is not so good at IT. She doesn't have enough confidence to take part in the Australia IT Test. She misses a lot of IT courses. She took part in the IT competition at her class few weeks ago. It is lucky that she won to become top 3. After that, she took second round test and become top 8 at school. I think it is quite hard for her to pass the IT competition today. We use Chinese version OS at home. The microsoft office and photoshop all are at Chinese. She has already adapted herself at these software. Now she needs to answer all questions in English. She knows how to translate, but it will take her time.

She took three competitions already this year. She won 2nd prize at Chinese Speech Competition and just got 5th prize at IQ competition. She failed at RI Mathematics Olympiad Competition. She also needs to take part in another two Mathematics Olympiad Competitions. They will be coming this weekend and next week.

To face to so many competitions, I worry about her stress. It is only way that I tell her that she doesn't need to give herself so much stress, They are not important in her life. They are some play games for those bores people. They take a lot of time to some subjects which they love. But it isn't necessary to us. We need to study a lot and balance every subjects. We hope that she will become top in PSLE, but not just at those competitions.

Hope my daughter to enjoy her IT competition today. She is ashamed to face all school pupils even if she may speak at stage, because she has confidence for the speech. For IT knowledge, she ask me and my wife. We cannot do anything for her. So she have to prepare the competition by herself.
