Mum's Birthday Dinner
Last night, we celebrated mum's birthday at Sizzler' Suntec. Frankly, it's been a while I last saw mum so happy. Of course, the surprise mini party the night prior added to it. My aunt and cousins popped by on Sunday night to give mama a surprise party. Will post the video should I get a chance to.
To be frank I did not really enjoy last night but it was good nonetheless considering the fact the star of the night was not me. Couldn't help but feel like I did not belong somehow. Watching both families (my bro and my sis) bonding especially so for the kids, I felt a little awkward and lonely. Arr, think "lonely" is the right word. Again, the party was not about me so I shall not talk bout me anymore......
Managed to surprise mum a fair bit when I presented her with a bouquet of flowers. Apparently, to her this is the first time in her life she received flowers. After dinner, she was walking around outside the restaurant, seemingly parading her flowers. Frankly, I do not know if I should be proud or sad. I saw the look of content and smile of bliss on her face. The scene carried with it a joy that she appreciated her gift but with a tinge of grief realising that for a 61 year old woman not to have received flowers before (even from my dad).
I know she definitely enjoyed herself, having had her children and much more importantly her grandchildren with her during her birthday. I guess I should be content with that. Thank God for mum.

Little Things I Remember: At The Malay Barber Shop
Must have been less than 10 years old then.
Malay barber: "come boy let's play a game."
He spun me around twice on his chair and proceeded to cut my hair. Duh! What sort of game is that??
