I should be better at being responsible for my own learning because nobody's really cared much for it ever since primary school, but.

I need to mug, or my reputation as a model student will go down the drain.

"Both you and your husband work full time, but your daughter can still top her standard! Not bad huh? She must be a really motivated, hardworking person."

MUGMUGMUG MUST NOT LOSE FACE MUGMUGMUG.
