There's a story my mum told me once:

There was a man who was starving in the streets. A kind old woman gave him four baos to eat. He ate one, and he still felt really hungry. So he ate another one. And then another...and finally when he ate the last one he felt full. He sighed to himself and said: Oh!! I am so stupid! If only I had eaten this final bao first, I would have three baos saved for tmr!! How stupid I am!!

I do think stories are really good stuff.

Another story from Mummy:

There was a little girl whose mother died. Her father married again, and the stepmother was very bad to her. Everyday, the stepmother would make her eat really oily food. Everything was fried and wallowing in oil. The next door lady saw the child and was sorry for her. So every evening, when the stepmother was out collecting water from the well, she would give the child a cup of hot chinese tea. This happened for many years, and the child grew up and grew up healthy! The oily food had less effect on her because of the Chinese tea!

Haih. Yeah, I'm missing family. This story kind of reminds me of my old neighbor at my old house. We called her popo, and she was very nice to us. She had a retarded grandchild called Sum Poh. He went to the same school as us, and he sat the same school van as us. His neighbor also took the same school van, and his nickname was gorilla, because he was big and very dark. He had a very pretty younger sister who was fair as anything and everyone compared them to the Gorilla and his sister in Slam Dunk!

Anyway, Popo passed away, and then Sum Poh was taken away. I'm not sure how they are doing now.

Whenever I dream I won't dream of my new house, every time I would be back in my old house. Once I dreamed that there was an extra wing to my house, and I thought to myself: When I wake up I'll check it out! Hehe. But there wasn't an extra wing...

It's sold now, and been renovated. Looks so different.

I haven't thought of those times for a while. But these memories are still there. Maybe when I'm old I will go through these thoughts over and over again. Hehe. You know, one thing I really want when I am old is that I will have laughter lines. My mom has them. I never noticed until I saw mom and her sister together. They look fairly alike except mummy is really dark and aunty is fair...but mummy has laughter lines while aunty doesn't. I rather like the laughter lines...maybe I'm just biased, hehe.

Aunty was really nice to me today, her and her family fetched me to Grandpas when they heard that 96 was not operating. And then now I have brands essence, packed food and fruits to boot. :) I was really lonely. I don't know why, but I really don't like being alone. I like being quiet, but I don't like being alone. Four days alone is really sad. I don't know how I'd last if it were longer. Daddy endured 60 days alone before, he said that the verses he memorized sustained him.

I have to start work! Interim crit is on Thursday. For Akicon I am going to con them by doing the same thing as LiRan. Haha. That would be less research.

Then there is the project for envi...my team members are very nice people though. I met them on Friday! I hope we get along! It's a fun project, but no doubt alot alot of work! Hehe. Ohh!! I forgot to mention I simply LOVE my Studio group this sem!!! It's such a nice group, every single person is so nice!! :) :)
