*Friday*
Actually, not... I skipped a class and went to sit in for SunZi Bin Fa Lecture. After the lesson, I sort of learnt something.
If someone ever asks me;
Q: When a person loves to talk when no one is listening, who do you call him?
My Ans: A Lecturer.
Den after that, I was with Tang Miao at Lot 1 for her grocery shopping when I saw my mum's msg. She said my dad could fetch me at 3.05 which is about 15mins' time. So I called her and she said they just just reached the stadium (they booked badminton). Anyway alot of confusion followed... The thing was I din have my hse keys bcoz I changed my bag, and den my dad was still in the office...
Actually, I misread to msg, as it said Dad can fetch U at poly taxistand...
So I gave up talking to my mum and dad on the phone and walked around with Miao. She reached the snacks section and asked me if I had any recommendation?
Of course I had! Den i pointed to Jack and Jill Potato chips. She said "Except that." I pointed to Cheeso's. "Except that." And I pointed to Twisties BBQ, Cheese, Sour cream. "Except that."
Farni riiiiiight, Tang Miao.
The best thing was she wanted to buy PRINGLES in the end, and den asked me "Is it fattening?" I said yes immdiately. HAHAHAHA
Finally, my dad called and said he can fetch me at lot 1!!! I grabbed a Wang Zai Xiao Man Tou and we paid up soon.
We were walking past the four leaves bakery when suddenly a small hyperactive boy fell down "SPLAT!" in front of me! XIA SI WO LEH! Then the most morbid thing happened. The adult behind him went "OR BI GOOD! OR BI GOOOD!" and the boy got up and grinned at her.
0.o Siao wan leh... I got the shock of the day and this woman go and Or Bi Gd the child... But I still managed to walk away with Tang Miao. After we passed to Yumi Yogurt, Tang Miao said, "So nice hor, the moment we come out, someone kowtow to us."
And I gave very-long-never-used Loud and Cackling Lightning-Bolt laughter! While Tang Miao "Wah! ur voice hor..." and rubbed her ear, I felt I could get used to it!
Hehehe
So my Dad and I went to the stadium. We played abita badminton and abita table tennis*
And Today while I was cleaning the floor, I went SHIT! Tang Miao B'dae was 5 days ago!!!... now's at night and I haven bought her present yet.. I'll probably write her a note first.

What kind of a father...
"Nothing's wrong with my phone. I just didn't want to pick it up."
I was appalled; I snapped off the TV, slammed shut my laptop, went into my room adn locked the door behind me. I took what he said very personally. I waited for him in the living room, called him using practically everyone's hp at home. And this is the B.S. I get from him. I thought he got kidnapped or fell into a ditch OK!
I felt SO ANGRY that he's so non-chalant about MY feelings, I sat on my floor and cried. He just ruined my entire weekend altho it was only friday. Then after a while I thought, he doesn't even give a shit about us/ me, why should I cry? So I decided to listen to music to relax myself. But when I was looking for a CD, he knocked on my door, saying he wants to talk to me.
Then he told me his "reason". He said my mum said something that made him so mad, he SWORE NOT to use the phone the whole day. He just told me not to worry, not to worry and left me to cry again. I cried not because they quarrelled, but because of his attitude.
How can a person stay angry with his entire family for a fucking whole day? His mind is really twisted. And what's this ? A bloody apology arh?
The moment he mentioned "mummy sid something" I knew immediately what the issue was about. NOTHING ELSE could make the both of them "angry" like so. It was the Siao Char Bo who's always calling him. For sure.
He's fully aware that my mum really dislike the way he talks to her, and yet he continues to answer her calls.
This is not about Cheating (YET). This is about FLIRTING, you shallow-minded asshole!
Again, how the fucking hell can you get so angry with ur wife when U are in the FUCKING wrong????? MEN!!!
For the whole day, my mum didn't complain to me about you or show any signs of distress. I really had no idea. She didn't want to bother me with any more problems, and yet you managed to quadriple my stress level in a mere few hours. Idiot.
The next day, which is Saturday, I didn't tell my mum I cried, and I didn't want to give him a piece of my mind. When he said he wants to take us out (like nothing happened), my mum didn't want to go out with him. So my bro and I spent half a day with him. We went to Changi Village for lunch and then to the boardwalk. ALL the time, I wanted SO MUCH to tell him off on his irresponsible behaviour!But I didn't dare. It's always the case.
But then on the way home, while driving along PIE, he suddenly told my brother "Your'er a slow developer." MY GOD. Then he proceeded to critisize his results, learning attitude etc... So I tried to defend my brother sometimes with an equally rude tone, even tho my bro could hardly give a damn about his nagging. Soon, I WAS REALLY ON THE VERGE of telling him;
"Stop picking on HIM! Your're not any better yourself!"
I even wanted to reason with him my mum's reaction yesterday morning. Among my many other thoughts, one went like this;
"How can you blame her for saying such things that you deem stupid?! You imagine la! If she's always on the phone with someone you know in the office, eg. Uncle R, and she as YOUR wife, giggles and whispers and talks in a corner with a smile, HOW WUD YOU FEEL?! And worse still, the more you tell her to stop it, the more she does it. You think about it LA!"
So simple a theory, he can't get it in his head. Really, I can't see why he should or could get into an anger of that extent...
And a few times during the car journey, I felt my head under so much intense pressure that it felt like it'll explode. Like REALLY BLOW UP or something. It's not humanly possible but it suer felt that way. That's because I was struggling very hard to tell him, but there was this force field blocking my voicebox. I couldn't speak up!!! We travel from PIE to BKE to KJE and at various points, I just wanting to spill my guts out... but I can't. Nearing to final stretch of our journey home, I even tried to count backwards from 5, and told myself, "must say le!"
In the end I never got it out. He think's it's over, but I'll probably remember it for a long long time.

Amiss
My brother's becoming like me when I was in sec sch. Terrible terrible. Actually worse than me... after all he's a guy. Mummy's not feeling well so ask him to do more things. Things that are not even considered chores... She fried rice today, so he had to peel and chop potatoes and chop luncheon meat. Very fucking difficult meh? I don't understand. Why he must go into a fit and later throw away our old computer parts. Throw all the peelings all over the kitchen floor, spill water from the potato bowl and leave the watery mess on the table. Had I not discovered it, the table top would have peeled off le. Very strange how come he don't see that having dinner cooked at home is a privilegde, not a right. But most off the time, I don't understand how the male species think anyway...
Shit, 9.20pm... Where is he arh?!
Like I said I feel very weird. Don't it's stress or what. Can't be... dun feel like stress I've ever felt before. Although I've good reasons to be stressed. More modules to take, tougher topics, and STATS. Thats the only thing that made me question my choice of choosing a business course. It's not easy, really not easy.
