hahah!
Lunar Chinese new year,
when everyone was busy cleaning up,
guess what was i doing?












heheheh. =)

sitting on my sofa sipping BEN AND JERRY'S.

oh kayy,
im not exactly THAT fat,
just sleeping through these three days that i had at home.

knw somethg? i havent rlly had a good sleep ever since A's ended,
i've been slogging my guts out working HOKAYY.

im finally tasting the enjoyment of sleepness =D

awwww.
and im all ready t be a prettaye behbay on New Year's Day ! =))

i had a hard time bargaining w dad about my issue of visiting yanting and yuri,
he INSISTED i had t take e plane w another friend,
but the fact is, I HAVENT GOT ONE!

like, who else is fit t fit into our clique of Yuri, MY and YanTing??
well, even if there is,
do you think everyone else's dad is willing t let their daughter fly t London w friends?

basically it was a tough fight,
until he suggested asking my aunt t be the judge.
MUAHAHHA.
being the mother of two,
having a son who loves travelling and a daughter who graduated from Australia,
who do you think emerges the winner?

ME OF COS.

but strangely and infuriatingly,
dad agreed the moment my aunt said " let her go lor!"

damnit.

if only he listens t his daughter this much.

then he went on t complain "she asked for 5000 for the trip eh!"
then my aunt said " aiyoo.. its London we are talking about, very expensive one! the other time (her son) went t (some country which ive forgotten) and spent 7 - 8 k uh! what's more, this is London!"

then my dad agreed. AGAIN.

i had sucha hard time persuading and all it takes is a nod from her.

OH WELL.
=DD

but after that,
i begun t feel guilty.
dad has been the breadwinner, providing for a wife who spends MORE THAN what his eldest daughter is capable of,
and has a eldest daughter who takes after her mom,
followed by the second daughter who is claiming much more pocket money than the eldest when she was her age,
and finally a 12yr old daughter, yet t be of age t start spending.

ive been getting almost everythg i wanted,
judging from the way i treat money,
i understd how hard dad has t work.
-not only t provide for me, but a family of five,
w two houses, two cars.

he told me "times have changed, what im earning now is merely enough t cover our expenses, any additional expenses will have t be sought from my past savings. now, im giving you 5k, not from what ive earned, but from my savings."

do you knw how bad i felt at that instant??

i begun t take back my dream of going,
but,

yet i couldnt bear to.
unfilial, i knw, i knw.

that's just me, its innate!
cos im brought up the way it is,
ive never had the experience of not getting things i want.

for this, all i can hope for is t continue working,
lessen dad's burden.
BUT, do you think it's ever possible for me t say " oh! dad! ive earned this amount, you can cut down on your sponcership for me now!"

nahhh..
not in my nature.

BLIMY.

okokay,
anyhow,
what makes me so sure im getting into the university?

let's hope that i dont, so dad wont have t pluck out 5k?

lolol.

parents are the noblest.
im realising it as i get older.

IM GG T CATCH A NAP NOW AND 'SHOU SHUI' FOR MY PARENTS TONIGHT!!
