dad pissed mum off big time. it's like, a playback of the cny events this year, ya know? the whole "you can't go back to ipoh to visit cos my family is more important" thing. like really, grow up. haven't you learnt anything at all?
i think it is unfair that we spend so much time with one side of the family, and so little with the other. especially since, if you ask me, i would say my mum's side is much more supportive (of me, at least), than my father's side is. my mum's side at least encourages me, helps me when i need it, and is genuinely interested in what's going on in my life. so, i feel sad whenever we have to neglect them because of my father's selfishness.
my father. one wonders why he married my mum sometimes. his disrespect for her family is so fucking obvious. seriously. how hard is it to set aside some time to just go down to ipoh, which is just 1 freaking hour drive away from Penang, to pay a visit to relatives for like, 2 days? (i wouldnt even consider it 2 days man, seeing as we arrive on the first and leave early the 2nd) 2 freaking days out of 8 days, how hard is that? but noooo.... we can't. why? because my cousin decided to organise this one day hike to some place in penane, and so, we ab-so-lute-ly have to go for that for family bonding! bite me.
not that i have anything against my cousin or the trip, i think it is a brilliant idea, really, but the problem is my FATHER. he is so fucking selfish, i feel disgusted. i mean, taking things for himself and making my life miserable is one thing, but hello! doing the same to your wife?! how incredibly selfish. i am simply amazed (note: sarcasm).
this goes on any further, and i have no idea what my family will end-up into. mum on one side, dad and bro on the other and me somewhere in the middle. woe to the daughter who is just too nice to not not give a damn.
