♥ 11:52 PM
these past few days had been a hectic one for me. very tiring. have been devoting a considerable amt of time to the hospital.
thursday had a sleepless night while my parents caught a few hour of rest before we head down to mount elizabeth for my mom's op. thank God that my whole family can be there think my bro will only start his confinement this coming week.
spend a few hours at the hospi waiting for her to come out from the op theatre. when we visited her at her ward she was super weak not feeling very well. spend probably 30 mins there before me and my dad went home to let her rest and also for us to catch some winks.
went back in the evening to visit her. was driving my dad and we had a conversation. the last couple of years was quite tough for me because my dad was strict with me in the area of finance. back then i was like angry but looking back i am totally independent and no longer need my dad to finance me anything so i don think is a bad thing aft all.
few years ago when me and my bros were learning how to drive he told us that he will get us a car so we can share. but it did not came to pass when we got our licence. well while we were on the road he told me something that "shock" me. to ppl who do not know my dad will think he is stingy but to me i feel he is saver.
he was sharing with me he is not stingy or anything in fact he has no problem buying us car or anything. even if it mean getting 3 cars for my brothers and myself. but the only thing is that why he did not want to is because at the end of the day when we receive the road tax we are just going to throw it to him and have him settle it for us.
well seriously i did not think of asking him to get a car for me. was hoping by 25 i will be financially sound and able to afford my own car. was jus sharing with shang i was hoping to be a millionaire by 25 but talking to my dad it seems far fetch so now i zero it down to 100k. one zero less.
he made me realise one thing very impt. my mom's hospi bill will run up to in btw 8k to 10k. and he said that when u are struck down by illness, ur 10k will be immediately wipe out. i am 21 and may have start learning to save late but is ok. i have 7 more years to equal my dad feat to save his first million.
friday was kindda bad cos my mom was seriously not feeling very well aft the op. did not spend much time with her. left early with my dad so she can really catch more rest.
saturday decided to go for svc after cg. svc ended unexpectedly late. was thinking will the hospi allow me to visit my mom anot aft 8. drove like mad trying to beat the traffic to reach there in time. again she did not have much jing shen. accompany her for abt 15 - 20 mins before i decide to leave so she can slp early.
wasn't feeling too well probably because of the lack of slp and too much worrying. over the last couple of weeks i think i did not spend much time with my gd friends. decide to go home straight aft svc. i guess probably my mom saw it that i rather come back for lunch and dinner that we had more family meals together.
so yesterday went to join ch, dan, fabian, van and val at bedok mcdonald. at first i was quite listless very tired. but they got me to join in with bluff, heart attack which got me to lighten up. though it was a short meet up but i enjoy it.
went over to visit my mom again. this time round we were there longer. she was feeling much better but can see still not say very well. but good thing is she will discharge tmrw at 11 plus. will go down with my dad. is it one year plus or 2 years ago he had an op on his leg also. kindda know that his legs are kindda his weak spot. decide to take leave and just be there.
be going in army real soon. i really really wanna go oversea. was actually thinking of going to phuket or krabi. a short relaxing hol. i think will be going last week of may or 1st week of june. unless someone decide to go like middle may. got to start planning for it if not is jus gonna evaporate again.
