Kids

"I'm having dinner with my secondary school friends. Will be back before you finish bathing."

Message to Mum just a minute ago. I'm always making a joke out of her bath time simply because that lovely woman spends a quarter of the time she's at home and awake in the bathroom with the shower head on full blast. But I still love her. Ha.

Last Friday brought a whole lot of disorganisation into my life, because it was a mark of a new chapter of my life. I'm going to have a lot of decision-making to do in the next 2 to 3 weeks, as well as some engagements and busy weekends. Oh gosh, all I want to do is to spend more time at home with Mum and Dad, and to coach those 2 prats in their studies. I need to buy time!!!
Tears flowed freely for some on a very eventful Friday, while others rejoiced over their straight A's. No matter what the outcome is, we've got to embark on the path which we've either been directed to or found for ourselves. No use crying over spilt milk, no point wallowing in self-pity, and no excuse to bask in self-glory. That's so short-sighted. "You've got to row your own canoe, y'know," my Uncle once said.

I spent the most beautiful Friday night/Saturday morning at Fay's house, complete with yu sheng, YouTube, laughter, more laughter and even more laughter. Thanks for adding another page to our book of friendship, pals.

And I spent the most beautiful weekend evenings with 14-month-old Bryson and 11-month-old Karolyn. They're the little honey pots of my life, complete with those toothy smiles and silly antics. They'll probably be old enough to call me 'Ah Yi' in another year's time. The thought itself is enough to make me cry. Unbashfully, I love kids. My Mum and Dad must love kids as well, judging from their 3 lovely princesses. Haha. That's super shameless of me to say that.
