they went to their own rooms the girl couldn't sleep after her last thought and started writing again until she passed out on her table, she woke up on the sun hitting the side of her face and startled her when she got up, there was a blanket covering her and the notebook is nowhere to be seen, and the lights of her room are off. she understood what happened, got up, stretched, looked at the time it was around 6am and went to the bathroom. after a while she got downstairs to find her uncle reading through the notebook with a glass of water in front of him and the items that he will cock the breakfast with he glanced at her and said "Morning princess" and went back to look through the notebook, she sat got herself a glass of water and sat next to him and started looking for what kind of expressions he would make while reading the notebook, but his face didn't change much while reading it for a while until he seems to have reached the last few notes he made a quick eyebrow raise and continued to read then when he finished he closed it and gave it to her and said "You still have a little bit over and hour if there is anything you want to add or write. at this point she is bored without her phone, so she wanted to just be done with it and said "No, I think I have wrote all of what I can right now"
He laughed and said "keep your eyes and ears open you still have a little bit of time let's eat first" then he stood up to start making their breakfast, but she stopped him and said "No, I will make it today" and she started making scrambled eggs while chatting about how things are going in school and he is nodding his head and making small remarks here and there when she finished cooking they started eating.
After they finished their breakfast it was around 7:40 and he said "Don't you like cooking?" she said "Not really, I only enjoy doing it at home so we can eat together"
he smiled and said "Fair enough, are you sure you don't want to look into anything before the time is up?"
"Absolutory no, I'm bored without my phone or tablet and I think I can look up more things using them" she replied quickly
he shrugged and said "You can indeed look up more stuff, but the experience to reach the idea is more important than just looking up for things to do rather than meeting and seeing people doing it and you having the ideas, then looking them up to increase your well of knowledge regarding the subject"
she ponders over it for a second then says "But wouldn't having more things to search for be better than the things only available around me or that I can search for physically?"
he says "Most of the time it won't be good since you will be missing a lot of the experience of knowledge transfer from a person who know it explaining it to you or you just reading 30 activities you can do in your free time , and with more choices it becomes hard to choose one because if you end up not liking it you will think that you have picked the worst one of the 30, then you might try another one and get stuck and guess what you have chosen the second worst one .. and the cycle will continue for a long time if there isn't a person that tells you what is going on"
she says "That makes sense to a degree, but I still think with the current amount of information on each subject online it could replicate that experience"
he looked at his phone for a second then said
"Well done princess you have passed this trial successfully it is now 8:23 am, how about we talk about what you wrote"
she jumped from her seat and stood before him holding her hands out and said "My phone first"
he took her phone out and gave it to her then she quickly went upstairs saying "I will be back in a bit"
he cleaned up the table, washed the dishes and sat on the living room floor reading a comic on his phone a few minutes later the girl came back and says "Okay uncle let's start"
he closed his phone, pointed at the notebook on the table and she gave it to him
"Sit down and lets go point by point and bit by bit"
"So to start out you thought about being a tailor? okay,
let's start with the positives what do you think will be good if you learn to be a good tailor?"
she ponders over it for a bit then writes and says "first I will be able to make my own clothes and customize the things I buy if I need too. If I can learn how to design I can then start selling clothes under that maybe?"
he nodes and says "looks like a good track so far, now what about things that seem negative to you if you went down that track"
she says" First that comes to mind is how demanding it would be on specific body parts, so if I injure my hand I will be out of it until then, and if I think about going into the market there are a lot of people doing it"
he puts a question mark on tailor and says "both points will be true for a lot of activates young lady, lets leave it at that and move on to the next one, you wrote a carpenter? what would be the advantages of that?"
she thought for a second and said "I think pretty much the same as being a tailor? instead of clothes it will be woodwork, I will be able to make my own cabin, bed and more, but I think in terms of the negative side the market won't matter as much as clothing since woodwork isn't affected by the global market as much as clothes has?"
