Happy Mother's Day!
Today I received an sms from Raphael again. It said : "Happy mother's day mad! Hope u have a fun day with ur mum.. too bad i cant celebrate mother's day with you... im celebrating with another madelene..haha!"
You see... His mother's name is Madelene too. Haha. And that is the one thing I remembered about him all these years. That his mummy has the same name as me. Same spelling too. Cool.
My mummy, as usual, went to work today. Now my cousin's working for her again. Until the end of this year then he's taking his O levels. He plans to be a big shot director like George Lucas one day. He's 20 years of age and earning $6000 a month. Sick! I wonder whether I'll ever earn as much? Lol.
She was the latest to come to Amma's house. She came with a 10kg watermelon. Yes, 10kg. And 2 boxes of mangoes and mangosteens.
We ordered pizza. Hmmm. And I ate 3 big slices of the watermelon and 4 slices of pizza. That's it.
Mother's day. What is it about? To me, it's a day to show even more appreciation to your mother. I don't know about you people out there but, mums are the best people on earth! They will always be the one who cares even when your father abandons you. Trust me, I know. What's the point of getting your mum something special just one day each year? No. You show your love and appreciation each and every day. Don't let you mummy down. Never lie to your mum. Do small little things for her every day even if it seems like she doesn't appreciate it.
I remember writing an essay on "The person I admire the most" last year. Mr Osgodby gave me 28/30. Or was it 29/30? Anyway, it was a beautiful essay. I'm proud of it. You know, it's so easy to tell your friends about how much you love your mum but so difficult to tell your mum those 3 words. I'm guilty of this. But then again, actions speak louder than words. I let my mummy know that I'll always be eternally grateful for all the love she's showered on us and to let her know that I'm really thankful that she didn't pack up and leave just because things were rough before. She's a strong woman. My mummy is beautiful in every sense of the word.
I'm not an angel. I don't deny that. I do things to piss her off. I say horrible things at times. I sometimes throw tempers. I made my mummy cry this year over the most stupidest mistake of my life. Yet she never gave up on me. And I cannot be more blessed.
Mummy, I <3 you. =)
Life is beautiful and love conquers all.
You're the light that makes my darkness disappear...
