Well, yesterday night was certainly one I wanted to forget, simply horrible. Same goes for this morning, verbal assaults from different commanders. Argh. Well, the good thing from this incident could well be the fact that I've finally grown out of my teenage years, and the parents are finally resigning to the fate that they can no longer subject their kids to the treatment of rattan/cane/ruler - whipping/caning/beating.
Ok lah, my mum's anger subsided as quickly as it was built up, by afternoon we went shopping for my new wallet, and a new pair of shorts she insisted that I shall wear to put whatever valuables inside. She also slotted in 60 bucks into my new empty wallet before making me keep it properly. Seriously, this shopping trip will be remembered as one of my most pathetic ones. I was really quite 'lang bei' when she passed me my new wallet, but at the same time, I felt this warmth, that's simply beyond what words can explain. Naggy she maybe, but she is really just being the lovable mum that only her son can comprehend. A mum's love is irreplaceable, no doubt ar.
Hmm, a good afternoon cooking at her stall, now she cooks from 2 stoves, so I'm learning how to multi-task as well. Bittergourd and cucumber at the same time, haha, talk about challenge. Not to mention the heat from the 2 burners too. I got quite a good steaming on the face, comparable to a good sauna or a tan by the oven. Not bad lah, at least I felt I was being useful easing the mum's burden, so she had more time for breaks, and eat her food properly, when most of the time she actually rushes to tend to customers, leaving her to juggle cooking/eating/serving simutaneously.
