I wanna be me

Yours truly is not a *sentimental fool, so never, in your evilness' blog life, has yours truly felt like being *mushy.

But right at this moment, yours truly must proclaim, thank you evilness, for I am blessed.

I am
one-damn-fortunate-bitch.

Look at this way, I love my parents, I really do but while unconsciously, I always knew that I am lucky, coming from the oh-so-traditional-chinese family, we just don't hang words of endearment on our *lips.

But for the support my parents immediately gave when I thought of breaking my bond and repaying a horrendous amount of money, I am grateful. I mean, there was no talk of being responsible for one’s own decisions, but more of "I'll write you a cheque now". That's a relief. Even if its more in line of "we would love for you to resign like right now" kind of way. *grin*


Sometimes, yours truly feels that I think too much. After all, it's more me to weigh my decisions and to try to persevere in my choices, than it is my parents' demand of me. Maybe I just think too much. Imagine all the agonizing and my parents just say, "great, go ahead & quit. If money can solve your headache, it’s no longer a problem." Wow. *whistles*

So what was the value of the time and sheer effort of agonizing?

But then, I like me this way.

Thank you very much.

Fact is, I like people this way.

Decisions should not be frivolous made. Money should not be squandered without thought.

If there are more people like that, I suppose I might just possibly have more friends?

Maybe

Not.

Shrug.

Back to my initial point, after that detour to my current job status – which is probably very mundane *grimace* - yours truly is going to JAPAN tomorrow. Yes, being paid peanuts means that I should scrimp and not shop in Japan, but my parents seems rather worried about my finances.

Look at it this way, it is normal that yours truly's mom tries to give me money for the trip, but the fact that, *dear-absent-minded dad deliberately and consciously went to draw money to give me despite my attempts to turn it down, makes me so…..loved?

Isn't it nice to be me?

More importantly, isn't it great to have parents like mine? *smirk*

Thank evilness.

Someone out there likes me. *impertinently*

Bon voyage to me.
