Another new month has begin or should i say 7 mths of 2007 has gone? Time really flies. Since started working, 3 yrs just gone by without me noticing it. I still remember that when i was in primary school, the school holidays was so long that i hope that semester will start soon. But as i grow up, school holidays seems to become shorter as if yesterday is the last day of school n tomorrow school is starting again. Well, in poly, i was working temp for all the 6 school vacation except 1. For that 1 vacation which i couldn't find any temp job, i was just rotting @ home. How i wish to rot @ home now... Seems like i didn't really enjoy my poly vacation cos i was just working n working. At that time, i just wanna work to earn $$. How i wish the clock could turn back n i think i would rot @ home on all the vacation cos now i dun have a chance to rot @ home anymore. Mayb when i become jobless bah... Otherwise where got this luxury? Sometimes the word "retirement" pop up in my mind cos i'm tired.... Told one of friend this n was immediately shot back by him. Anyway he's older than me by 2 yrs. He claim tt if i'm thinking of retirement now then wat should he be thinking now? Mayb should be in the process of enjoying retirement.
Mom was sick when i reach home today cos she was resting on the bed. Everyday when i reach home, there would be home cooked food on the dining table. Sometime i would comment "Huh, how come today dishes r all these ah" I think i'm really 生在福中不知福。。。Cos i think some parents would not be cooking everyday but my mom would be 365 days preparing meals for us. Today i suddenly feel quite guilty... cos although mom was sick, she still prepare meals for us. Every morning, it's my mom who will wake me up, not alarm clock n there would be breakfast prepared on the table. Usually my breakfast would be either soft-boiled egg, scrambled egg, sunny side up, luncheon meat, sardine. Once in a while, my mom would cook my favourite 乳肉 the previous nite so that i can have it for breakfast. Sometimes she may cook chicken n mix with potato so that we can spread it on the bread. If my mom went to the market early, she would buy back noodles n soya bean milk for me. V 丰富 rite? Well, i seldom eat bread with butter, think i'm too pampered.
At night when i came home, there would always be dinner ready for me. Sometimes i reach home quite late, around 8plus n my mom would heat the dishes for me. My mom is so good to me....N previously we eat rice @ nite, but i think after i start working, we eat porridge at nite cos @ the beginning i work until quite late so eating porridge is easier for digestion.
I still remember vividly tt when i just start work n was oso studying, i really complained a lot to my mom tt it's so tough, i dunno whether i can survive until i complete my studies. On the days when i was attending classes, she would wake up when i reach home. We would drink milk or milo cos usually by the time i reach home, my stomach would be growling. We would chit chat for a while cos i can't bath once i reach home (my mom say not good to bath immediately after meals or just return from outside cos maybe perspiring). Probably when i just started work, somethings happen tt time n i was working so late every day n have to attend classes 2 days a wk. I think mom feels tt through these actions, she could give me the encouragement n support to accompany me to overcome my difficulties n hurdles. Just by accompanying me n listening to me.... But now, she no longer wake up to chat wif me when i reach home on day tt i'm attending classes . It's must be quite tiring for her... The other thing tt i remember fondly is when i was in primary school, my mom would took bus with me n my sis to the school during raining days. We would be wearing slippers to school n mom would be carrying our white shoes in a plastic bag. We would then change it in the school canteen so that our shoes would not get wet.
Mom is so good to me... Hope mom get well soon.
