I have the sudden urge to blog about my parents. They are not perfect. They have issues but they are both amazing individuals to me. Im not trying to brag about them or whatever but i just want to blog about the really special things that i remember. There are no right ways with regards to parenting. I dont often give them credits that they deserve.
Once, I was feeling rather hopeless about my old laptop. It broke down at a time when i needed it the most. With exams looming and all, i broke down as well. Very very stressful. It was a small matter which was over exaggerated. Dad, seeing how upset i was, came into my room and said " Dont cry. Let me know how i can help you,". At that moment, i was liberated from whatever i felt stressed over.
Good ole mom. Opps sorry mommy. Good young mom.
Me: Mommy, i want to tell you about my results. I passed leh! I passed the subjects!
Mom: Really wow! Thats great!
Me: But hor, i failed econs leh.
Mom: Huh? Failed again?! Aiyoh.. very.. erm. "surprising". * she knows i suck at Econs.* Then how?
Me: *proceeded to tell her my options.*Oh, im have to work on Sunday.
Mom: Huh? Sunday? I thought we could go celebrate you passing the subjects.
Seriously, what kind of mother would spend all that money, watched you flunk econs AGAIN, passed 2 subjects and still wanna take you out for a celebration?!
They have their issues. Yes. They are humans. Yes.
I am really lucky. Yes, i really am.
