Missing Words

I know that i have not been typing for quite sometime, who knows, i might lose touch to my English in a few months time.

It is agreeable that a picture tells a thousand words and the pictures i have posted adds up to millions of words, but then again some thoughts cant be convey using pictures...

1st thing on the list
"I rather be here in china than be back home waiting for a family member".

With the typhoon and the milk powder incident happening, and the fear become worst when you know that the five of us have not been watching any news, reading any newspaper or listening to radio. Truthfully, i have no idea about any of the incidents until my mum called and told me about it. And till now, i still do not know much of the details...

Another thing about it is that we are here enjoying ourselves (at least most of us are), and time seems to fly so quickly, except early in the morning in bed when what feels like hours is in fact only a few minutes. I wonder at how fast the time in singapore is moving...

2nd thing on the list
It is funny that one can forgive people who are not blood-related more easily than those who are. A cousin of mine told me once, that you will only hate a person who you love as much. True? I think so. Let's just take a look.

Back at home, i will scream at my brothers for not washing their plates, leaving their cups all around and things like that, but over here, i will help wash cups readily and to clean the kitchen up every once and then. Weird right? I have always thought that we would do things for people closest to your heart without any form of return.

3rd on the list
Among the five of us, there is one that is living in the past. If you have read earlier posts and notice something, you'll know who i'm talking about. Somethings in the past are unforgettable, especially pleasant memories.

I still think of times when my mum would actually cook at home and that i get to help out, like the orange-flavored steam cake, cookies, prawn dumplings (with waterchest nuts), Tang Yuan... But i know that if i were to live in the past and expect her to cook everyday, we wouldnt be be having princess porridge and to joke about it, would we?

The past in what makes us who we are today, be it memories that you want it to live forever or past that you just want to forget. If we were to live in the past, wouldn't we be stopping ourselves from creating a brighter future?

>><<

Our plan today is to swim!!! [Most of you must be trying to link swimming with XinFei right? I am not there to swim, i'm only there to look at cute guys. KIDDING!!] But it's already 1.34pm and we are still at home, with no signs of going-out. Liying and Jun Sheng have not brush their teeth!! Smelly People!! Heehee.
