Ericmaxman, I can tell you are one of the good kids, smart, has skills, many interests....I do not know much about Malaysia, but you seem to have a good hold on what you want to do in your life. The computer aspect tells me that you have mechanical and mathematical skills. This will serve you well in the future. I've seen the models you posted and I like the look of them, very well done. I like the flat black sedan you did, kind of like an Asian version of the Robocop car, that shows imagination and the ability to carry it out, plus you are not afraid of trying out of the ordinary colors. About your Mom, i can't help you on that one (my dad was the same way), but maybe it could be a medical issue that needs to be addressed by her doctor. My elderly Mother has mood swings, too. But if she takes her medicines, she's OK.
