Chatted with hub last night and spoke about the kids' expenses. Told him the amount of money we spent on the kids education and he commented 'Wow!! If no kids, u can buy 1 LV bag every month!'. In which I replied, 'Ya lorx... Every 3-6 months can buy 1 Chanel bag'. =X
I went on talking to hubby about 1 of my colleague, S. She's a single mother with a daughter. She often say she has no money... If a tuition programme is in the 'hundred $'(e.g: $400+/term) range, she would think twice about sending her daughter there even though she might rant about how badly her daughter needs help in this subject. But when it comes to branded goods for herself, even that bag cost thousand of dollars, she have no prob forking out the money..
Hubby then commented that we really shouldn't judge a person by its looks. Some ppl might look 'rich' and 'nice' but in actual fact they're nothing inside.
I think it's quite obvious that I dun like S. We can even say that it's obvious that I despise her for the way she treats her daughter. (There are many things which i think its not good to discuss about here, thus I will not explain why I despise her.)
I always tell hubby... Treat your kids right because they are the ones that will be with you when you're old and out. And at that time will be thë time when you know if your 'investment' failed or earned.

I dun understand why is it that you will never be there when I need you most.. Never a word of concern, not a small gesture of appreciation, nothing..
I had enough talking to u.. Telling you how I feel... I had enough spending my time on you trying to gain your attention. Since I mean nothing to you at all, then I shall just lead my life with pride and dignity. I will not beg for your attention anymore.
I know I will have no regret should anything went wrong with my marriage. I did whatever I could to keep the spark alive. But for some reason, things just different...
If this is my life.. If this is what I owe you.. Then let me go through what I should go through. Whatever will be, will be... I'll just take it as it comes.. Labels: Life, marriage

While love last, the way one love another varies from people to people and also, time to time.
I have no doubt I am one of those few that love and is being loved in return.
But at times, me too, have doubts on the love my hubby have for me.
I dunno how to strike a balance between fulfilling my own needs and not bring an irritating bitch at the same time.
Maybe sometimes it'll do more good if each was given their own space.
Maybe it's time I shift my focus...

The bus I'm in passed by RI and I saw this banner that reads 'OPEN HOUSE, DIRECT SCHOOL ADMISSION' and this thought suddenly came to me : if any of my child is of that calibre, it would be my Dariz.
Dariz in many ways is so so like me! We're both middle child. We excel in our school work and get results that make our parents proud.. We're full of mischiefs all the time and have our own thinking.. It's easier to make us succumb to you (our parents) out of love then we actually agreeing to what u say most of the time.. We have a big appetite for both food and attention.... And we're always crying for it. Even the food we love is so similar!!
I went on the think that it's a right choice for me to quit my job and stay at home. At least I could help them in their studies. I didn't dare to think how I should face the reality should my boy (Dariz) of the RI/Hua Zhong calibre went into normal stream next time. But then again, anything could go wrong.. Like me, i went into normal stream even though I was in the 'A' class when I was in primary school. It's not because I turned stupid all of a sudden in P6, but the fact that my needs were not met cause me to screwed up the only thing my parents seems to care at that time out of frustration. It's an act of revenge, that's for sure.. What I'm not sure is that if it's revenge directed at my mum or myself for I was so bent on destroying myself at one time.. :|
All the negativity inside me doesn't just appear out of nowhere. It's the hurt, anger, frustration I felt over time built up. I do not want what destroy me to destroy my kids too. For it is too big a price for them or me to pay...
Ppl said that parents normally find what they've lost through their child. Maybe I could find what I've lost through my Dariz. <3
