I got a new specs! Maroon in colour de.
Yesterday mum got a day off. She came home to do the chores and we went to Bishan cos she said she wanna get me a new pair of specs. Thinking back, my old specs was more than 2 years old liao. The auntie was nice enough to complete it for us within half an hour to prevent us the hassle of coming back to collect. She also offered to help my mum to change the eye bridges on her specs. She is such a kind lady, definitely will have many good fortune de (:
While waiting we went to have our lunch, i had 鱼片米粉 again, but it was not as nice as the one i had last Thurs. Mum ordered ice lemon tea for me, she still remembered i love drink ice lemon tea, so sweet of her. Then she asked me whether i want to go Genting with her. Nope, i told her.
I have had too many wonderful memories there, and that is just enough (:
After collecting my specs, we took the bus back. Then she realised that she had forgotten to collect her own specs. So i alighted the bus and went back to collect. Blur mother. Haha.
Went to support ASD exam daimokukai at night @ Senja. Not much Year 2s and instead the J1s & ICs made up the majority. It feels so good to be back "home" once again to get inspired by our famous "garang-ness". IIC Teck Kiang's sonorous daimoku & powerful sharing on the HR brought up my spirit totally. He's indeed the pillar of ASD (:
Took the train back with Tuan Kiak and Qi Sheng. It has been quite some time that i last seen Qi Sheng, my kindergarten classmate cum ASD+YCF05+Chingay0607 chiong-mate cum jc schmate. Haha. Had a good catchup with him, i really miss the days in ASD with our "garang" batch. Haiz.
When i got home, i was surprised to see that my dad is not back yet. A sudden fear crept into me and my heart wrenched.
I had no idea why but i recalled the days that my mum and i waited in fear at home whenever it was past 12 midnight. He will always come back drunk and create a mess in the house. It has been so many years.. and he has changed totally, I felt really guilty that i still have this feeling & the doubt in him. But I was really scared staring at the empty house, i stayed up until 2am but he is still not back. I cannot reach him at his mobile too.
I slept with my door locked.
The first thing i woke up is to check whether my dad is back. Nope, he is not back yet. I was damn worried then, first thing is to open the butsutan to chant. I kept chanting until i heard the shuffling of keys. At the corner of my eyes i saw my dad, tired from the overnight shift, finally back home. My tears flowed down uncontrollably but i faced the ghzn & continue chanting cos i do not want him to see me in my ugly state. I was so thankful la. Wad a traumatic false alarm! :(
