okay. i feel alot better (: solved my problem. praise God! God is good.
just got back from reunion dinner and i just feel really sad that i'm going to leave all my cousins and aunts and uncles and my grandparents too! i mean, even though i'm not all that close to them.. i just feel so funny not going to be able to see them during the family gatherings! like chinese new year, birthdays, national day.. etc. and like i'm going to miss joanna (she's one of my favourite cousins, and she's really sensible and rational for her age) the most! and my 3rd aunt.. ): bleah. i got alot of goodbye presents. you know. its like 12 days more. i wish i could turn back time somemore. its going to be so hard leaving singapore. but its time for a fresh start i guess! once i leave, i'll be alright. (: hopefully.
you know, i admire my 3rd aunt for her patience. one of her sons have like a speech problem and is super hyperactive and demands alot of attention otherwise.. he'll just try to get attention in various ways i will explain later how so. anyway. we were watching tv when suddenly a little hand reaches out and changes the channel and he just walks away. LIKE WHATTTT. we were watching the tv LAH. and then my mom scolds him. and makes him change the channel back.
another instance. me and my cousin was sitting on this 2 sitter sofa, and like i wanted to plait her messy hair so i asked her to sit down on the floor in front of me. the thing is that my presents and my cousin's (from my aunt who didnt come for the xmas gathering) were on the floor, so i put it on the seat that she was originally in, and i started to plait her hair. and this dear cousin of mine, PLOPPED HIMSELF ONTO THE SEAT WITH ALL OUR STUFF and just sat right on top of them. OMG. i could have shouted at him. grr. and then me and my cousin were like, moses, can you please get off our stuff. all he did was just smile and continued playing with his gameboy advanced. LIKE WTH. and so we repeated ourselves nicely again. he had no reaction. we got quite frustrated. and we just raised our voice a little more after that and on and on in ascension. no reaction. he was purposely doing it i tell you! and the cardboard box that my present was in was like deflating cos of his butt pressure. i couldnt take it and i just asked my aunt to ask him to get off our stuff. he shifted abit to let us yank the presents out. he's too much i tell you. but what shocked us the most was what my uncle (his dad) did. he slapped him. :\ we were shocked. but didnt say anything. like what sarah would say.. OHMYSON!!
after those few incidents (there were alot more. just that i wasnt there to witness. he pushed my 3 yr old cousins into the wall and the fan and they came out of the room crying. he is such a terror sometimes) i just am glad that i dont have to deal with children yet. and i'm quite amazed with the patience my aunt has for my cousin. i mean like this pri 4 or 5 yr old kid who needs so much attention.. i dont think i can do it. so i really look up to my aunt.
i'll put my tagboard back up soon (: no more spamming! okay!
a shout of praise.
