Went out shopping today with my parents.
Headed to chinatown to get buttons for my dress.
Dad got his Preserved lemon. We got it from a stall, beside the escalator, on the 2nd floor in People's Park Complex. The Preseved Lemon there taste better than the ones they got from bugis, so we went back there to buy.
Oh, and I like their Lychee Plum.
Then we went OG. Spent quite an bit to get a set of sylvianian families.
It's on promotion but still it is not cheap.
I initially wanted to get this. It's on sale for $39.90 which I saw from the OG booklet that was sent to my house.


But I ended up getting the city house with lights which is much bigger than that.
Haha, and the cashier got so excited helping me to open up the box to check with the content.
There's a little girl living within us.
It's something I ever wanted since young (besides barbie dolls).
I wanted a doll house.
And I bought it today.
But I can only get my hands on it next week as we requested for delivery.
Can't wait for it to be home!

My parents are not rich.
But I did have toys to play with.
I also did have great company to play with even though we fight and quarrel all the time.
They can't afford to get expensive toys for us.
I used to envy that my cousins have a room or a whole wardrobe filled with toys.
It's not that I had never wanted news toys, I did have a wishlist and I had secretly wished that Santa would send me during Christmas. Getting the toys on my wishlist never really matter to me. It'd be good if I received it but I wouldn't roll on the ground and make a fuss to get them.

I had great a childhood.
I spent my mornings watching cartoons.
I didn't have any pressure to get good grade in school.
I have more company at home.
I was well fed and clothed.
Now I wish that I lived at that period of time forever.

I hardly ever get to see my elder brother except during special occasions like Chinese New Year and birthday.
I know my parents are always waiting for his calls.
He always said he is busy.
Everyone is, everyone have to work.
We knows that he goes out to sea.
But there will be times where he'll be in Singapore.
So what does he do when he is back?
What I see on social media is friends gatherings and him going out with his wife and her parents.

I honestly doesn't like his wife's mum. She's super rude and pretentious.
She doesn't give people respect so neither do I have to. But I'll still at least give a a fake smile and address her auntie when I see her. My parents taught me manners.
Her mum was smiling when they came over to discuss about their marriage. But the day after they got married she came to my house without greeting the owner of the house and demanded to get things for my brother and argued with my parents. I'm like what the?!?!
Another thing I hate about her is that she tried to brain wash me (when I had stayover at their house) saying that we women should be "controlling" man.
We are in Singapore and now is not the era where men are dominant but neither are women. We should be treating our partners with respect instead of pinching them and throwing a tantrum at them when we are upset and making ridiculous demands. I have never gotten into a real relationship but my mummy have always tell me to treat my partner and his family with respect.

I knew my mum doesn't like his wife and neither his wife like my mum.
But they never fought. I saw her scolding my mum on facebook, but that was before they got married.
The last time I saw his wife(election day) I think she had a quarrel with my brother of something, and she was in a bad mood. She didn't speak to any of us and was on her iPad all the way until I started speaking to her.

I never knew that we will grew further as we grew older.
It was really a bliss back then.
The 5 of us going out together as a family.
The 5 of us watching tv together.
The 5 of us having meals together.
Anything that we did together as one family.

Life is never perfect.
There's no such thing as happily ever after.
If only I can write my own life story...

Last Sunday, met up with Jia Min and Eliz. Had dinner at Tamp mall pizza hut. Received a pack of "hello kitty goodie bag" from Jiamin, Eliz and Dan as my belated birthday gift. All my favourite! Thank You!




We didn't have much time to meet up as we have to work and JM have projects and exams too. 
A short meet up to catch up is really good.
Life gets busy, but we still remember one another and make time for each other despite our busy schedules.
