update a short post while my sisters hog both toilets. i wanna bathe :(

celebrated my ah ma's birthday, father's side, over at her house with buffet. i didn't notice this until recently...maybe because my other ah ma at my mom's side just passed away...it just struck me that my father's side ah ma has been living by herself all this while. with one of my uncle&his wife thankfully. but she's so cheerful and her memory's so damn good that she keep speaking jap to me and i have to squeeze out the remaining few jap juices to comprehend what she's trying to say. hokkien don't understand, jap also don't understand. everytime can only 'orh...orh'.

what i'm trying to say is that i totally forgot about the fact that her other half has already moved on. if i am not wrong, my grandfather passed away exactly a few weeks before i was born. maybe he reincarnated into me? haha. no. just joking. there's no way i will know about that.

but luckily, we will celebrate her birthday every year. making sure everyone will gather up and sing her a birthday song. making sure that she knows that everyone's there for her. i guess this is what you call family.

the sad part...the younger generations don't seem to get it.

the way my cousin treat her father is almost like she's shouting to a dog. i don't see a slight tinge of respect in it. it just feels wrong. i'm sure nobody wants their child to be shouting at them. i'm sure you don't. so why not treat your own parents better if you don't want your child to do the same thing to you.

even if it's just blood ties. out of billions of people in this world, only two will be tied to you for life. only two will be there for you no matter what happens.

seriously people, treat your parents better before you regret that you never did.
