Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

can you ask your friends not to joke around w/ your mom due to her nature of taking everything seriously.

:(

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

OK, I love you Munni, so am gonna give you some hard lovin'.

Boys are not ALL evil. Girls are mostly kameenis, Mothers should be left in the nursury - Fathers have egos and eventually we all need to experience the hungry vicious wolf that is that big bad world.

Retain your independence. This is the only way you are gonna grow as a person. I agree with what poeple have said above about the selective showing. It is not mandatory to infuse your parents into every area of your life.

hugs

Are you seriously in GRAD school?

Professors wanting to talk to your Ammi about your academic progress! Not sure which University you attend but this is a first for GRAD school!

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

not sure if someone already asked you this. but you must have done something really naughty for your mom to want to do this. give it up sista.

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

Seriously.. grad school? That's just really sad and really stupid.

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

Munni, to be honest with you, while i do think it's a bit different and i'd probably flip out if my Mom wanted to do that, i can't help but think at least your mommy cares enough. My mom doesn't even know my undergrad major because it was not in biology or chemistry. . . so yes while going to grad school with you is stretching it, it seems she's got her heart in the right place (unless she's doing it to check up on you and control you, in which case, i think you should not indulge her at all).

In any case, at some point you're going to have to make her realize that you are independent. I just dunno how you would do that without hurting her feelings. Maybe you can tell her that the university does not allow anyone not enrolled to come to class and just have her meet with your professors? maybe you could talk to them ahead of time to explain. I'm sure they'll understand. Or maybe you could just have a heart to heart with her and explain your perspective to her.

I think the heart of this is a culture issue. Your mom was probably raised in an environment where parents were involved in every aspect of a child's life even if the "child" was actually an adult. Things are different now and i'm guessing she doesn't completely realize that you're raised differently and going to college with you is her far too involved and may create an awkward situation for you.

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

Ammie’s parents visited her in uni and spoke with her professors and friends. Therefore I think Ammie sees no issue with it, especially since I am not doing well as of right now.

My two professors wanna speak to her cause they feel I am immature and need to study a lot more often and focus. Unfortunately whenever they see me, I am walking around instead of studying. They know I am someone who cares a lot what Ammie says and therefore I guess they wanna speak to her about it. They told me they see me as someone with a lot of potential, mash’Allah. Its nice to know that atleast they care.

No, I am not doing anything nawty. Uffho. I am literally always in the library, but I am not always studying when I am there. I get distracted very easily. afsoos

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

munii ......thats the same situation lik meee....u munni

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

no offense, but in my eyes I see no difference between munnis predicament and a ridiculous curfew.

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

Eh.. yeah.. :(

...hiccup throws a left hook and Sara like a defeated fighter lowers both her hands, the world is glued to their monitor screens to see if hiccup has it in her to finish this off with her next punch

asthray waits for the climax

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

shurrup uncle.

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

I wasn’t even fighting, so u cant say im a defeated fighter :snooty:

It takes too much himmat to fight :hug: for hiccup

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

and ladies and gentlemen, sara has thrown in the towel. The unkil lifts hiccup on his shoulders and circles around the ring chanting meri cheeti, meri cheeti.

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

Munni, which university did Ammi attend and which one do you attend? Just curious, because I NEVER heard of grad school professors or EVEN GRAD ADVISORS wanting to talk to parents about an Adult's academic progress.

How old are you anyway? If you are working towards a Masters degree I assume you must be atleast 21 and a functioning adult being. Honey, then it is upto you to figure out if being "distracted" in the library is worth it and GET A GRIP. The price of a college education being what it is, maybe you are not ready to take on the responsibility of even attending college.

Re: Ammie wants to visit me at school/uni

I asked my professors if they told any other student about calling their parents, they said no, just me. They said they feel that I am someone who would do a better job if I had Ammie on my back. afsoos

I dont believe in giving up just cause I never had good study habits to begin with.

Ammie wants to come and I am okay with her coming as long as she doesnt do everything I listed. I am going to talk to her insha'Allah, or maybe get an aunty to talk to her. Will see how it goes. I have time yet. hehe. The good thing about Ammie coming though is that I know for a fact she wont let me waste any time, which is kinda cool. smile
