I like to observe...
... how my Mum and Dad watches TV together. Very often, they will have absolutely different reactions which i find extremely cute. While watching an action movie, my Dad would whoop in delight at the exciting part, while my Mum will be whopping in fear. (As in for real, she's go "whhooo~~~p!!!"). When watching a comedy, my Dad will guffaw and laugh his lungs out while my Mum simply smile her mysterious smile(even when it's super funny). When watching a horror show, my Mum will cover her eyes immediatly, even when the scene is showing a perfectly sunny day outdoor, and my Dad will look at her weirdly and ask her does she need to be so exaggerated. My Mum will then show a pissed-off face, and Dad will fall silent and change the channel. When watching anything debatory(which generally means any show at all, as long as they can find a topic to talk about), my Mum and Dad will insist on giving their views, while my Mum try and convince my Dad hers is right. Most of the time, Dad will end up nodding in silent agreement and my Mum would stop knowing that she's won. Dad would then whisper in an undertone to us, that agreeing with Mum is the only way to shut her up. However, when it comes to cooking show, my Dad's reasoning ALWAYS win, and Mum will walk to the kitchen pretending to get something to eat or drink.
I think they're really funny and sweet that way. Despite Dad's insistent that he finds my Mum super annoying and irritating and unreasonable and getting fat, and Mum's insistent that Dad is tactless and irresponsible and weird and getting skinny, i know that deep down they love each other. I think.

Of course, my version of how i view are alot more romanticized. But wouldnt it be wonderful for anyone, to find someone whom, despite all their flaws, accepts each other unconditionally? =))
I'm really a romantic at heart lah. Talking about all these is making me grin non-stop.

This is just very random, cause i was watching TV with them, and ended up observing them, which is what i normally do. Hardly see my Dad in a year lah, so must see more of him. And it's funny because, only when my Dad's around do i actually go observe my Mum.

Just a very very random thought. I was out with Rena ytd, and realise that i've been single for almost 9 mths!!! It really shocked me, cause i still feel like i just broke up recently. Like less than 2 or 3 mths. I can't get over the fact that it's been 9 months since we go our seperate ways.
Anyway, Shir sent me this a few months back. I keep wanting to blog about it but forgot.

The following statements are from a book called Disorder in the American
Courts, and are things people actually said in court, word for word,
taken down and now published by court reporters who had the torment of
staying calm while these exchanges were actually taking place.
