I've deleted my previous post because it was too whiny.
My previous post was too sad to fit into my happy blog. Anyway, it is not that my problem has been solved (it hasn't! i think i shouldn't procrastinate any further...), it's just that my blog is a happy public sphere and personal problems should not be brought here. Well, you may beg to differ but it's my own conviction.

CNY Reunion is over!
It's over, as in over and done with. Not cancelled!
I had mine with my dad's side just this tues. Dinner at this cantonese restaurant in chinatown was great. Much as i want to be environmentally-friendly in the meal, i can't! I had to consume a big bowl of shark fins' soup (cos' that restaurant specialises in that. poor sharks...) so that my nainai will be appeased. No objections allowed. Every dish i had was of top-notched quality! However, the company was quite awkward as i didnt see my uncle and aunty helen for... a year? Don't know what to say with them. I prefer hanging out with my cousins at my mom's side of the family! They are a fun bunch!
"Congratulations on the Birth of Your New Baby Girl!"
I was rumaging through my dad's cupboards and found a little bag that mom used to keep letters and wedding invitations. So i browsed through the letters. Heh heh. Let's reveal some scandals! Thought i found some juicy letters, but turned out that they were letters from my missionary uncle to mom. aiya! Not that they are not interesting but I want jucier contents! Haha! You know, discover some secrets or the sorts.
Then, i found this adorable pink card with the front: "Congratulations on the Birth of Your New Baby Girl!" to my mom.
Oh wow! Who's the baby girl?
I realised it was me! I was THE BABY!
ANYWAYS, the content of the card is very meaningful. Let me share it with you.
"A precious gift a baby brings,
A taste of heav'n above;
And as she grows,
from you she'll learn
the story of God's love.
So tenderly and with much prayer,
teach her the way to go,
And when she's grown,
she'll honor you (and),
the ones who loved her so!
Congratulations on the New Addition to the Family!
Dated: 21/9/87"
So moving! *wipes tear*
Look, i'm all grown up!
What to expect from here
