"When I grow up, I want to go to CAMBRIDGE"
这是叔婆在剑桥买给侄孙的小小礼物。
希望他也能像叔婆一样，长大后到剑桥念书 :)

Special Durian
What's so special about this durian? It is special because it was bought specially for me. =)
He is already 80 yrs old, but he is going strong and healthy. You will know when he speak on the phone, he is loud and clear and I think even the neighbour can also hear him clearly. Especially when he scold people, he is really zhong qi shi zu (中气十足）. He is very particular about everything, and to him everything has to be prim and proper. You will get scolding from him even for very small things, for example, if you don't back the phone charges after using the cordless phone, or u don't bring back the cup to kitchen after drinking water etc...
But he has another side of him. He express his love for the family members in his quite way where people can't see and but one can feel his care and concern. He doesn't like us to go out at night, because he said it is not safe (even we are already adult). When the maid climb up ladder to clean cupboard or window, she will get scolding from her as he said it is too dangerous for her to do so.
Last Friday, I went back to Johor to stay with my in law for a few days before I left for UK. Yesterday morning, he bought me a durian (one and the only one). He said my mother in law should not take too much durian due to her health, so he bought only one durian for me. Although this is an ordinary durian (and actually I don't really fancy durian), I am very touch by his kind gesture.
老人家通常不善于表达他们对子女们的爱。其实在他们严厉的外表隐藏了一颗关爱的心。

回柔佛过年
祝愿大家在这金鼠年里：
身体健健康康、
工作顺顺利利、
生活快快乐乐、
还有许许多多
“鼠”也“鼠”不尽的福运哦！
过农历新年，包红包、派红包，这么重要的事，当然是交给wk负责啰。可是，今年过年他人远在英国，我只好自己来。先是为升学的事烦，天天都在读相关的论文和书籍，头脑都快想破了，哪有心情过年，更别说买年货新衣，就连自己的房间也没好好打扫呢。到了除夕那天，猛然想起还没准备包红包的钞票，匆匆赶到银行，可是银行里已经没有新钞了，就连十元的旧钞票也所剩无几了，真是伤脑筋！
年初二，我自个儿回柔佛古来向老人家拜年。还好早上从新加坡关口到新山关口通畅无阻，侄儿GT到新山关口附近接我，约早上十点就回到古来了。傍晚，姐夫T载我到新山搭车回新加坡，没想到新山关口大堵车，汽车巴士都堵在同一条路上，交通规划真是糟透了！等车的地方也没有让搭客排队的栏杆，大家东站西站，好不容易等到了一辆巴士姗姗来迟，大家一拥而上，我是被后面的人推挤上车的。司机看到这样的情形很生气，为了制止搭客你推我挤，他竟然不顾一切，一声不响地就突然把车门给关上，一名妇女的手被车门夹住，我赶快大声叫住司机，他才心不甘情不愿地把车门打开，妇女没事了，可是，后面的搭客又是蜂拥而上，真的好像逃难一样。我仿佛看到雪灾时在广州火车站被滞留的搭客你推我挤的情景，真可怕！所以虽然新加坡和新山只是一水之隔，但是如果wk不在，过新柔长堤我是能免则免。
新山这种交通状况，从我1980年到新加坡读书到现在都是这样。唉！新山到底什么时候才会进步呢？
