I am closer to my dad than mum. He makes me laugh daily, often goes around with a smile. Even when I am super pissed or sarcastic to him, he still dared joke nonsense with me. Lol. When I was a kid, sometimes I get to sit on his shoulders.. even jumping at times.. but no complaints from him, even though he might have aches all over after that. He brought us to e zoo, jurong bird park, science center, etc, even when he was sick, & had to lie down on a bench while my bro & I played in total bliss. When he was in JB, I heard from mum he searched for a tweety bird soft toy which I wanted, bought it, & carried it all e way home. It was half a meter in height.. I was so touched..
I remembered in primary sch, mum tested me chinese spelling, & won't let me sleep until I have all e chinese words written correctly. Every single mistake made garnered me a whack by e cane. This goes on until past midnight, although I had to get up at 6am for sch. Dad let me copy chinese spelling words from textbook when mum wasn't looking, so that I can quickly go to bed & avoid more caning.
Mum said caning is gd for me.. but i beg to differ. Caning just hurts my skin, & increase my hatred & spite. That is all. But for dad.. whenever my marks are not so gd, he just told me to do better e next time round & study harder.. That.. touched my heart & I actually cried as I felt guilty.. & I worked harder for him.
Dad would always take day off to attend my yearly parent-teacher meeting in pri & sec sch, even though my marks wasn't that fantastic. Mum wouldn't go unless I scored well. So for one yr in sec sch, I studied almost daily like hell.. got 1st or 2nd in class.. so that she would go. However.. after that, I decided that even though I achieved gd results, it is not worth my effort & time as I had to give up most of my precious time just studying almost daily at home. Home seems like a prison, but with tv & computer. So I resolved to aim for a pass for everything, so as to gain some happiness, freedom in return, which are priceless & precious to me. I am a happy person today.. & I have learnt to treasure what I have. :)
I love my dad.. although he has his faults, he is e best dad I could ever ask for. I am thankful to have him as a part of my life, & grateful to him for every little thing he has done for me with love. How e hell he can stand this daughter of his still remains a mystery. I loved my darling daddy.. always have.. & eternally will :-*
This evening, we went to Jack's place at Ang mo kio for father's day dinner. We should have celebrate it e day before father's day, as restaurants always try to cash in by giving father's day set lunches & dinners menu only. They refused to provide e normal menu. So we don't have a choice but to eat whatever they have. What e hell. It quite spoilt our mood though. e food was so-so only.. I prefer e normal menu.. cheaper & maybe more yummy. e place was pretty dim, as it uses just one candlelight per table.. my pics were kind of dark.. so I guess this entry will have to go pictureless. hehe
