flowers in the attic

if you ask me right now what i think about-and i think about quite a few things; the most distinct thought would be how my mum ceaselessly and unconditionally wakes me up every single morning for work and sends me to the mrt station. and she is absolutely not obliged to do that at all. yes i know what you're thinking - 22 going on 23 years old this year already and you still need your mother to wake you up in the mornings ?? this is why i am completely touched and awed by her love for me. even my dad nags at her for spoiling me too much, but she still does it.

it seems like she has been waking up early in the mornings for my sister and i all our lives, since we started primary school to secondary then to JC and even right now in the university. i think she would only be able to get a much needed and well-deserved rest like after my sister graduates from uni which will be like 3-4 years from now.

sometimes it might seem like i'm taking my mum for granted, but i really appreciate what she is doing - i just don't know how to express my gratitude. sometimes i really suck at expressing any kind of emotion for a friend or loved one - whether i'm concerned, touched or worried. but i'm sure what she really rather i do would be helping out with the housework at home more. haha. and maybe after getting my pay and the GST offset package i can get her something...and we can all go out for a good meal just in time to celebrate my sister's birthday as well!
