"Without family, a house is never a home."
I used to complain a lot, about staying at home.
No freedom, no mood to study, too dependent on family, and the list never just stop here.
But now, I'm really grateful for that I'm staying at home everyday, meeting my "king", "queen" and "prince" everyday. My family, are not like normal family, where we don't use to express our love towards each other much, we don't even celebrate each other's birthday, and we used to tease everyone and making joke of everyone. But they are the ones, whom I could be totally be me in front of them. I could shout, cry, laugh like an idiotic lady, sneeze loudly til the building shakes, fart like nobody's business, etc etc. (Well, the sneeze part is a bit exaggerated, but when you hear the sneeze of my dad and my bro, you'll know that I'm not exaggerating at all! Haha) And I'm really really glad that our family are still in one-piece. I used to think that every family is the same as mine, but after know a lot of friends, I learnt that I should really be grateful for what the God gave me. I have both parents that I can't say that they are madly in love with each other, but they care for each other and they're there for each other. Not many people are as fortunate as I am, as I have a very complete and happy family.
I love being with my family! I'm comfortable with the way we live with each other. Whenever I had problems, or when I'm sad, the moment I make fun of my bro, it would light up my day. haha! Me and my bro, used to tease each other a lot, where he kept calling me fat and I kept laughing him for over-reacting upon insects (he's super afraid of insects.) Talking of insects, if you know me, you'll know how much I'm afraid of that super disgusting and filthy cockroaches. And guess what, my bro is even more scared of cockroaches than me! the moment he hear cockroaches or bee or whatever insects flew into our house, the next moment you'll notice that he isn't by your side anymore, but hiding in his room or somewhere else. haha! and you could totally imagine the way he looks when he ran away. *laugh-out-loud* Haha! but anyway, he do cheered up me the most in the family. We don't use to tell each other secrets and those girly girly stuff, but.. talking to him and joke around with him definitely will lighten up my days! =)
My dad. hmmm. what to say about him? Oh, he's also afraid of cockroaches. haha! I guess my whole family except mum are the largest victim of cockroaches. I personally hope that they'll extinct one day, although it is quite impossible. =/ Ok, come back come back! Well, i guess this quote can be used perfectly on my dad. "You can't judge a book with it's cover". Why? My dad looked like a gangster or someone who is suuuuuper strict and don't laugh or smile or talk or sing or do whatever that are "not-serious". In fact, my dad do sometimes don't laugh or smile as often as my mum. (Mum is a bit "sampat" like me) Well, my mum is always jealous of me because she said that my dad loves me more than her. Haha! but deep down inside, we know that he loves us equally. =) I'm the daddy's girl that is spoiled by my dad. To be honest, he woke me up every morning to class, even nowadays. He still prepares my breakfast for me when I was up preparing to class. Even he has no work and has no reason to wake up early, he'll still simply wake up to make my breakfast. He would text me everyday to ask me whether I need supper or not and stuff like that. He doesn't show how much he care about us, nor talk much to us, but we can feel it from his action.
My mum. Haha! Well, if you met my mum, you'll know that you could be best friend with her! My mum is like my best friend. We'll share a lot of gossips, stories and even yellow jokes. Yaaa, what kind of mother who talk yellow jokes to her son and daughter? MY mum. She's someone who could offset my dad's strictness. Well, I guess without my mum in the house, the house will be super quiet. She's always the one who like to joke a lot, and when her joke is not funny, she'll still laugh like mad woman when telling us her joke or story. (and mostly, we ignore her, when her joke is bad) My mum loves to nag on us a lot, she could keep talking and talking and talking about a same thing over and over again til we can memorize what she said. But, I know that she's doing it for the sake of our benefits and she care about us a lot a lot. My mum loves to knit and sew, she even sew pencil cases, bags, phone cases, etc to me and also my friends! To be frank, my mum is over 50 years old, but she looks like 30+ and the way she talks to us, it felt like she's our friend that only few years elder than us. Haha, she'll be damn happy if she saw this. Whenever my friends told me that my mum looks like, and I told her of course, she'll be super duper happy for the rest of the day!
Well, this practically sums up my family members in my home. I used to have my grandma staying here at my house with us. But she's now staying at Penang with my relatives. I always miss her a lot, our family always talks about her. Well, thank god our house line could call to land line without charges. We always called our grandma to chat with her. And know about her recent health level. Few years back when I was in TARC, my grandma was in ICU for several days. The doctor even ask us to prepare ourselves for the bad situation. To be honest, I cry for like two thousand times for that week. Haha, I was really really worry about my grandma and I was so not really to let her go. If not mistaken, I do wrote a blog post at that time about my grandma, you could read it if you want to, but I forgot which date dy la. Anyway, I used to be "boh dua boh seh" (disrespect) my grandma, haha, but not in the way that you think of course! I told her that she looked really cute, just like a bulldog, and also penguin and the same time. Haha! My grandma is super short with a round tummy. When she walks, she'll walk like a penguin, which is adorable. And the way she look, I don't know why but it somehow reminds me of bulldog. And I enjoy holding her hands and squeezing her elbow's skin, and I like to "slap" her hand where all those fats could bounce here and there when you slap it. Haha! Sounds super disrespect right? I know I know. But i enjoyed it, and she didn't mind! so, i'd continue what I did until now and most probably for the next few years too. Haha!! :)
So, my mum, dad,, bro and grandma, I love all of you so so so so so so much! Without all of you, it wouldn't even have a "me" around. Without all of you, I wouldn't be the "me" now. God, I love them so so much, so please bless them with greatest health and safety. Thank you! *pray*
May they be free from danger;
May they be free from mental suffering;
May they be free from physical suffering;
May they be well and happy always.
Sadhu, sadhu, sadhu!
P.S.: I love you!
I know I teared-up very easily,
but I can't believe that I felt like crying when writing this post.
Haha!
My tears, are too active, i guess.
