SUNDOWN MARATHON!!! 42 KM!!! 

lol. kk, i'm not the one participating, i think i'd hafta write my will before i even attempt trying. just going down to support my gd friend.

but i may want to try a 5km marathon! =)

--------------

just went to support my mami & daddy at their music performance.

was really reluctant to go initially....

but my dad sounded like he wanted us to be there for them...

"What time does it end?" me

"10+" dad

"what time does it start?" me

"7pm" dad

"Where is it?" me

"Bukit timah cc" dad

"Huh....where is that? how do i go??" me :(

"You can take cab there" dad

"wah, too much money hor...then are you giving me the cab fare?" me (lol, k, i know it sounded rude and all, but i was just trying to get out of going....hmm, k, v unufilial :S but! i did support them quite a number of times before this already!)

dad laughs. (my dad is used to me saying things like that, i can be very sarcastic sometimes, but he knows it's just a joke...sometimes not)

[took an afternoon nap and dad came into my room in the midst of my nap]

"i going off already k, here's the ticket, the concert starts at 7pm. here's 10 bucks, i cya later k" dad

that was when i realised he REALLY wanted me to go, even gave me cab fare! lol. that's when my conscience hit me and i decided to be the good daughter and attend their concert. so there i was alone, with a hall filled with elderly men and women and a handful of young people listening to oldies, met some of my parents' friends, made friends with a friendly old lady who does line dancing, singing, belly dancing (amazing huh?!)...there were some good performers, some bad, but i guess the singing just wasn't my era.

but i really do admire my parents' spirit for learning. they are an inspiration to me in terms of their constant desire to enrich themselves. my dad loves to sing and they are willing to spend a few days a week just to attend singing lessons. they are model examples for the chinese saying "huo dao lao, xue dao lao" (lifelong learning).


i'm proud of them :)
