Balance and Family..

The topic that most intrigued me today was most definitely what we discussed today at McDonalds. It's quite surprising and true what Jean said about what we tend to talk about. No matter what topic we begin with. Eventually, we would still end up talking about our families and how in awe we are of what they've achieved in their lives. Parents anyway.. And it's true. With their own bare hands they achieved the impossible by raising up the three of us. Me, my brother and my sister-in-law. How does that work? Of course we are talking about three different families with three different sets of parents/parent that grew up and endured different obstacles and difficulties in their lives. To add to that, they managed all that while raising kids like us.
Not exactly oddities but still, the 1st to come to mind is Jack. The one that emerged from a coconut tree thinking that money does grow on trees and thinking that his parents are ATM machines that churn money the way cows churn out milk. His insensitive actions of making really expensive mistakes cause the family a bundle.
Next in line - Shobaan. The man that's got it all. A bottomless pocket that requires constant refilling. With this guy, no parent can be considered rich enough to fund him. In it comes and soon.. *poof* out it goes..
Finally, the one that I know not too much about - Jean. Well, she isn't exactly a problem to her mum now is she? But yet, she's a girl. This means a constant, steady flow of income is required for her upkeep.
Well well, a salute to the parent. An essential need in the lives of every growing child and of course, teenager. As we mature, we finally come to learn the importance of these God given individuals that endure our stupid behavior agaisnt all odds.
Anyway, just to sum up my day, not much going on but yet, it's still a little something. Was at Asia yet again as every other Monday. Was hanging out, foosing, eating and of course, waiting for Shobaan. As usual. Same o same o. Apparently, I really don't think life is going anywhere at this rate. Would be signing up for college really soon. Perhaps this coming week. Whatever it is. I intend to become a somebody. Not a nobody like what many aspire to be..


P.S. Thanks yet again to all those that made my day. And yes, I feel a little more bubbly today thanks to the somewhat sufficient amount of sleep I got last night. Glad that I was able to catch up with Tasha a little. :D Would really miss having someone to chat with at the wee hours in the morning, Sigh.. Oh well, life goes on right?
