The Angel and The DeVil

Yu, can be adorable and thoughtful like an angel. He says the most adorable things and says "OK" to everything u ask him to do and do just what you tell him to do. 

At the same time, he can be a devil and that is when we really want to pack him into a box and send him home. You tell him to do 1, silence. You ask him if he hears what you say. Silence. You get mad at him and tell him to do it RIGHT NOW and he refuses and talks back and bad. 

Parents. I salute u... for having to deal with this every day.  

That day we went to Kuching Festival together to pull him out of his iPad, handphone, games addiction.  At first, he said he wanted to play some games to win a gift. After going round the games corner twice, he did some analysis and said, nah, the games are scams. Even if he wins, the value of the prize doesn't match the money he pays 😅 He is such a calculative careful boy.

We went to the AC area to see gifts and merchandizes. Yu is quite good at lego assembling and we saw shops selling many types of cartoon legos. The smallest set is only RM4.99 each.  According to Yu, this is cheap so we decided to each get one. Yu promised that he would assemble for us before his vacation ends. So, Yu bought a Lufi, Jane bought a Minnie Mouse and I bought a Tigger. Jane also bought a completed Pooh Bear which the cashier displayed at her counter for RM4.99. 

Of course, it was through a lot of pushing and 'bribing" that he finally completed his Rufi and my Tigger. Poor Jane, her minnie mouse is still in "pieces". HA! Jane paid RM4.99 for a completed pooh bear is definitely more value for money than getting Yu to assemble for us 😂

I was hoping that I could have one set of Pooh & Friends Lego one day. I wonder if that hope would ever come true. 

Someday, May be someday...

童言童語

侄子要進手術室前,姊姊打了個電話來說,幫侄子祈禱,希望一切順利~

我也跟侄子說說話。問他會怕嗎,他說會~ 好心疼呀

我也試著安慰他,給他壯壯膽

我:優,姨姨會跟菩薩說,你要動手術了,請他們去保護你

優:好~

我:你記得是哪位菩薩嗎?你上次有去廟裡拜拜的

優:南無地藏王菩薩和觀世音菩薩~

我:你好厲害~ 你等下也念念他們的名字,跟他們說等下可不可以去你身邊保護你

優: 好~ 


很庆幸,一切順順利利




之前我們去青山拜拜,優跟我借了5塊。我問他要做什麼。他說他要 make a wish。 他說他想要一個妹妹 😂😂😂 我說你應該去問問你爸爸媽媽可不可以才是 哈哈 

童言童語,太可愛了

後來我借錢給他添香油錢,他說他要『捐』給南無地藏王菩薩和觀世音菩薩。我問他,怎麼兩位菩薩而已?他說,因為我只認識他們兩位 😂😂😂 


話說因為媽媽的車上播放的佛樂就是南無地藏王菩薩和南無觀世音菩薩~  童言童語,太可愛了

我和媽媽的對話

我媽: “你下去打包乾撈米粉或粿條給我”

我乖乖領旨。 走到麵檔問老闆,他說米粉粿條都賣完了

我回到車回報

我:      媽,老闆說只剩下面,你要不要?

我媽: 米粉有嗎?

我:     只剩下面~

我媽: 粿條有嗎?

我:    只剩下面!(咦?客家話翻成中文好好笑😝)

我媽:沒有米粉粿條?

我😂😓

I AM BACK!

I suddenly remembered....

I have a blog!

As soon as I got home, I turned on my laptop and uhhh... I couldn't remember what the website is >.< I googled for my own blog. How terrible is that?!

Oh my, I didn't post anything in the year 2023?! Was I that busy until I did not have time to update my blog? Or I simply had nothing interesting to share in my life anymore? 

I remembered, urging LY to start her own blog. She said she has nothing to write about. I remembered telling her to just make small matters into big matters, then a blog post is born. And look where I have been? LY loyally updates her blogspot like a diary, whereas my blog is dead quiet. 

ok ok, my 2024 resolution is, to update my blog as much as possible. I need to revive it. I need to make my brain work hard again (although I think it's overworked as I can see my growing numbers of grey hair. I think my brain is sucking out all the nutrients from my hair 😰)

Let me summarize my 2023 here so I know I did not skip one year haha

We started to travel in September 2022 when borders started to open. We flew mum to Brisbane. I must say, after not being on any long flight for 3 years, 7 hours of flight is a torture. Then we travelled to Singapore, KL, Taiwan, Vietnam, China in 2023, reunited with siblings and nephews and nieces, relatives.  They also came back to spend time with us. 

Then to end 2023, I had really bad pain in my lower abdominal when we were on the high-speed train from Teochew to Guangzhou and it lasted for 2 damn days. fortunately, I managed to become better and made it home safely. Luckily, I had my mum's trolley to use, it helped me walk further and was able to continue to buy buy buy and eat eat eat. After all, Guangzhou is food and shopping haven. No matter how sick one is, eating and buying have to continue! haha

Thanks to Jane and My mum for taking good care of me. My mum enjoyed the trip the most. Why? She bought so much that she has TWO full luggage home. Yes, she took my luggage weight too~  


Happy 2024! 


Our way to end 2023
