My parents ^.^

So..i just got back on Tuesday nite because...i finally did go back to Brunei to see both my parents..took an afternoon flight on Saturday and arrived there in the evening at around 6 pm…I could see my dad standing from inside at the immigration counter when I arrived at the arrival terminal in the airport.. I could see him standing and squinting his mini eyes, trying to see me…At that moment when I was looking at him..i had such a mixture of emotions..my face was portraying a really happy and excited face, but my heart, surprising, had a very deep and sad feeling…I realize how much I love him at that moment…both him and my mum…

My parents are wonderful people, u know...When I was young..oh…I used to feel so ‘controlled’..My parents never allowed me to do anything…!! Haha..at least tat’s wat I felt when I was young…I couldn’t go out with my frens..it doesn’t matter where, why or how..but my parents just didn’t allow me to do so…compared to my peers, I felt I was always the last to have the latest, coolest stuff..like having cable TV, having a PC, having a pair of rollerblades, and even a pair of jeans!!! (mum loves dressing me in puffy-sleeves dresses…even though I was in secondary school!! Yikes!!!)..i had huge, plastic-framed glasses on my face , always a bad, bad haircut ..u know the typical long black hair, coupled with a real short and thick fringe..bbbrrrrr…That really sent some chills to my spine!! Haha..my parents never imparted any knowledge of fashion to me..haha…they were just simple people, u know…working hard..making ends meet...i really used to envy all my frens back in younger days… looking back tat was so silly..haha

Now..being 26 yrs of age..(bummer) ..and married…(hahah.yet to discover whether that is a bummer…JUST KIDDING ooi…), I realized how wonderful my parents were and still are…these ppl really ah…eat more salt than we eat rice..hahaha…they really are amazing …despite being a really geeky and gawky looking girl then…everything else, my parents gave me the best in everything they could afford...or even more than they could afford... I was so loved by my parents..every Sunday, my dad would bring me and my sis out to dim sum…they would bring us grocery shopping with them…if dad was working on weekends, he’ll ask if we wanna follow him..and he’ll always buy us yummy food for being good…Mum always rushes home from work to cook lunch and dinner for us..we were clothed in nice clothes..not trendy..but nice and decent…no expenses were ever spared when it came to our education …I was in the best school in Brunei (St.Andrew’s School rawkksss!!)…had tuition classes for practically every subject…both my mum n dad had to ferry me around between school and tuition classes...ahhh..the list goes on endlessly…

Anyway…I managed to therefore, celebrate Mum’s Day with my mummy…she was so happy…face beaming with love and joy….Dad ate more than half the cake I bought!!

I managed to bring my dad on Tuesday to another hospital and another doctor to view his X-ray..they say there were no signs of a lung infection..nor him having tuberculosis (TB), as diagnosed by the govt healthcare centre…Poor daddy..went through such a physchological trauma…it was heart-breaking seeing him go through his previous days..He separated all his utensils and crockery from us..afraid that the initial reports were true…He looked so despondent then…Now..at least he has the peace of mind that he is healthy..we just have to now wait for the govervment office to come back with their decision (which has been delayed too)…until now, do continue to keep my family in your prayers..and once again, I wanna thanks to all your words of encouragement..

My parents…they are my heroes..i truly love them and miss them so much
