Confession

I know I am not an expressive person but since I can't put it across verbally I shall just put it in words.

To my mum:

You've been a great mother. I know I'm not an expressive person. I don't say "I love you". I don't kiss or hug you. I shun away from body contacts. I don't hold your hands in public. But I still love you deep in my heart. 

I have a bad temper. I throw tantrums easily. I get angst easily and dao your questions. I am a very kaopei self and am very crude at times. But you relentlessly comforted me when I'm down, cheered me up with chocolates, asked me if I'm coping well, ensured that everything is in order for me, brought me out for good food and paid for all my shopping stuffs when I'm feeling stressed or down. You texted me that no matter what happens or what grades I get I will still be your beloved daughter. You showed support for my cafe entrepreneurial idea despite it being so farfetched and ridiculous. Despite me putting in so little appreciation, you patiently selflessly gave in all your care and concern and love for me. I really feel guilty for this. People keep saying I'm a filial daughter who's sweet etc. But it's not enough. Nothing is ever enough to repay all the welfare and love you've given me. It's more than anything on the world. When I asked what present you want you said you just want me to be happy. I'm more than happy. I'm happy. I'm blessed. I'm loved. I'm grateful. I'm guilty. 

Thank you mum for your everlasting support and love:) It really means alot to have someone always there for me, supporting me, listening to me, going out with me. I love you mum <3

Mother is a child's best friend (father also:P)

Happy Mother's Day

11 May 2014 Sunday: Mothers' Day

As promised, I woke at 8am to specially prepare brekkie for mum on this special day:) Went to buy groceries early in the morning. It really feels refreshing going to an empty supermarket on a cheery Sunday morning  knowing that you're doing something special for special people in your life:) The blissful feeling is great, having only to worry if the menu will suit the tastebuds of my parents and if I can finish the preparation before lunchtime. 


Successful final product: Foolproof American Breakfast :D Decided that preparing breakfast for my parents will be a much better choice than material products because I really can't think of anything which they need. When I asked them what they wanted, they only replied "We want you to be happy". Touched. Blessed. Guilty. Overwhelmed. 








Dinner treat at Marche:) Simple it may be, but it's really great catching up with family and talking crap. I really love those moments when we just talk about random stuffs, rake up events from the past or just suanning each other. This beats the antisocial ambience where everyone just take out their smartphone and start playing candycrush. Really glad that exams period is over so that I can enjoy quality time with my family:)
Love while you can. Don't make excuses. Start loving and showing your love to those around you. There is no better time to love.
