Wising up
I wish sometimes, people are smarter when dealing with my mum.
i am still sick, just thought i should add this in. as such, i am in no mood to entertain any retarded behaviour from any of my parents and relatives.
my 2nd aunt, the one in sydney, called me earlier on, gave me this “interview” and promptly decided i don’t deserve to go home. her reasoning was:
1) i go home also no use. i will be a burden to my parents
2) the money is better spent on my parents.
3) as a younger generation, i have no right to meddle with my family’s financial matters.
4) that since (this was insinuated) i wasn’t working, i should find work and work hard during holidays to get some money and SEND BACK TO MY PARENTS.
i am sorry, i don’t see where this is going. my reasoning for everything:
1) this money is a loan, not an outright “gimme”. don’t give me that bullshit that it costs so much ringgit and that it’s better spent on my parents. my mum’s been borrowing from you guys for the stupidest reasons, and you guys “GAVE” her because she was pitiful. i am actually going to return it. and when’s any of my mum’s expenditure actually worth it? gambling? worth it? that shone a new light on gambling for me. what great moral values you have.
2) my family, is MINE. she maybe your sister, but she’s MY immediate family, and so is my dad, who is no blood relation to you at all. so, i have more right than you to meddle in my family’s financial matters. infact, stop lending my mum money. that’s why she’s so spoilt and relying on your kindness, retard.
3) you notice, if you actually travelled so much and is a CAREFUL traveller, that air tickets are 895 to singapore. the extra money that i am borrowing is for EXPENDITURE, PARENTS INCLUDED. i don’t know where your supposed burden is coming from.
4) may i just remind you too, ah yi, that for the last almost 3 years now that i have not been home, i was here, trying to 1) get a job and 2) eventually had to work my ass off. why i chose september to go home is because it’s not a peak season, at all. not by the furthest stretch of imagination. secondly, because i get tips in the other holidays that will far surpass what i will get in september. furthermore, ah yi, petrol fees are going up. if i go home now, and not go home next year, i can ignore the increments in petrol. telling me not to go home if i don’t have money, and to save up more then, is just a very very narrow minded concept. at that rate, i will never save up enough.
Whatever, it’s your money. keep it.
