Happy Father's Day

Dear daddy,

Happy Father's Day! :D
Thank you for being a great father to me.

Thank you for working so hard to provide for the family.
When I was five or six years of age, I rarely saw you then as you were always working late or heading overseas for training.
We didn't really spend much time together as a father and daughter.
However, I was still lucky in a way. Busy as you were, you had time to spend on Sunday evenings with Ei and I.

You would tirelessly teach us how to ride our bicycles. Hahaha. I still remember the training wheels.
From two to one and finally one to none at all. It took a lot of falling, bruises and tears for us to be able to ride our bikes and be adventurous around our housing area. All thanks to you, daddy!

Thank you for being far-sighted.
You decided to enrol all of us into a Chinese medium primary school though both you and mommy understand not a word of it. In return, we taught you and mom the bad words we learnt in Mandarin, hahaha. Sad to say, we are still very much like bananas and we struggle indefinitely with Maths and Science. Oh well, but it's not a waste though.

We can understand what is being said, we can even help you and mommy when we go shopping by translating what the salesperson was trying to say. :D

Daddy, I will always look up to you in the way you deal with work, with people.
Of course, I do not want to be a workaholic but I admire the way you always put other people first. You always remain calm in handling many matters though every one us are hopping mad due to some incidents. Hahaha. Well, that's you.

Dear daddy, take care of your health ok? Don't sleep too late because of work. You should start to enjoy life now together with mommy. Ei is married and taken good care of. Shir is doing well in her field of study as proven in the poster you are holding. Char will do great too, she's an intelligent girl. Me? I will be there quietly supporting the family all the way! :)

"It is easy to father a child, but never easy to be a father to a child." Kath's quote.




Happy Father's Day, daddy-o!!

Signed with lots of hugs and kisses,
Kath.

To Mr. KT

This post is written in honour of (no, scratch that), is written with the objective to give someone a piece of my mind. (Want my cerebrum or medulla oblongata?) Firstly, this person complained that I did not update my blog often enough. Then he said, "Kenny Sia updates everyday." Yeah right, it's not everyday la Tai Kor! And why compare me to him? I'm so tiny and puny in the blogsphere. Heh. Anyway, I'm super busy and super tired and has had no inspiration whatsoever to blog about anything till today. (Thanks to somebody...) Before I go into the second part, for all those who have yet to hear about it, (it's been publicized in her FB), my sister, Eileen is now formally engaged to her sweetheart of six, seven years. Congrats to my dear dear sister. Finally, eh? Hahah. The second part is related to this. Not referring to my sis, but me. Our good friend who complained that I don't update often, had the gall/balls (Grr...) to 'insult' me. When I sh...

Of Vampires and Werewolves

I've never really been an ardent fan of the Twilight series(boo...says you). And I have no idea why some girls go gaga over Edward the vampire. He looks so paste-y with the bloodshot eyes (yea yea he's supposed to look that way). And bleah! I think he looked way hotter in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire as Cedric Diggory . That, I can go gaga. But in Twilight??? The romance between Edward and Bella is fine. Romantic, mushy and cliched. Heh. But there's nothing much for me to shout about. (Sorry to the ardent fans, esp to my three sisters. Ha.) This year, the next sequel in this series is about to be released tentatively in November. Known as New Moon , the title is definitely appropriate since the werewolves play a bigger role this time. I didn't read any of the books in the Twilight series though my sisters finished the whole lot of it. So there's no doubt I have no idea of what's going on in the next book. But judging from this trailer of the next sequ...

My Future???

After thinking for a while, (ok, not a while but many whiles) I have finally decided what to do after I graduate (hopefully) in May this year. I have narrowed it down to two options. Sigh. Either I continue my studies and proceed wtih Masters (God, help me..) or I apply for this work and travel thing to US for six months. Will see how it goes... see which comes first. If it's the latter, I'd most probably miss my Convocation. If the former is first, the latter will no longer be on my list. We'll see we'll see. :) P/S: Applying for masters has nothing to do with what the government has allocated to help the economy.
