was down to Junction8 with my parents to watch my cousin perform cos he got into semifinals of a talentquest.i would call it 明星梦 las. but oh wells, 'dare to dream' i suppose. he didnt get into finals in the end..but at least its an experience gained, at least he dare to pursue his dream.

waited 4 long hrs for the results..so i went jalan jalan with mum n bro.
i realise mum has not been going to shopping centres for donkey months. she didnt know J8 has changed and it shld hav been years since the last time she step into orchard? i feel so bad. when sakae, crystal jade, ding tai fung, nydc, haagen das (yadah yadah) are so common to me, and these are so alien to her. it makes me want to earn lotsa money to let them enjoy life. being tie down by bro, she cant have the freedom to go anywhere she fancies. i feel guilty.. of the times i've often go shopping and hav the freedom to njoy life, of the times that i've took her for granted. i promise i will not lose my temper on her anymore n i want to bring her out often.. when i got the money to spare of cos.

when i was a child, mum n dad will bring sis me n bro to birdpark, zoo, beaches..i can still remember the regular sundays breakfast. until when their child became teenagers..n start having their own programmes.when at this point of time, it is not possible to even sit down to hav dinner tgt. dinners were all done in front of television. communication lessened and we are all preoccupied with our own stuffs. tsktsk. i often forget they're getting old too.

i realise that what parents offer are one-sided love that dont expect any in return.
very cliche but true.
