Valley Girl?
omg. i did so good. i am a beast for english. 
This is the text message I received from Cici after her final exam in English yesterday morning. Later when I teased her about the message she said that she thinks she made a 100 on the exam, and added that she is a beast in calculus and Spanish as well. And so modest, just like me, I replied, and we shared a laugh.
Ping learned the word "brag" in her ESL classes so now she uses it against Cici and me when we are bragging about something. You are just like Papa, she told Cici. You are bragging. Well, when you learn a new word it helps to use it a lot so you can remember it, so I guess Cici and I are doing Ping a favor with all our bragging.
Cici settled in for a long night of studying last night, with finals in AP physics and AP calculus today. When I said good night to her she called me back to her room. Papa, she said, I forgot to tell you that you look amazing in your new glasses.
I was taken by surprise because when I bought the new glasses, I went for comfort and not looks. In fact, I tried on frames until I found a pair that was comfortable and told the lady helping me that I would purchase them. What? She said. You haven't even looked in the mirror! I'll take a chance on them anyway, I replied to her disbelief. I guess that worked out just fine.
