some thoughts..

My dad and I were watching "老字号" on TV and we saw this shop selling sliced bread. My dad asked," 我们现在就去买啊？” and I said "OK!" so we left the house at 8.30pm on a thursday night and took a 1/2 hour drive around singapore to find that shop. We spent $5 on gas and ERP, and in the end I bought half a packet of sliced bread for $1.40.

My parents chided me for not knowing how to 变通(the money we spent on gas >>>>money for 1 big loaf of bread, and I should just buy a lot), but I was so happy for the entire night that I drank two bowls of soup even though it has meat inside. (I never never drink soup with meat inside.)

Aren't my dad just cool? haha I feel so childish bragging about how great my father is, like when I was in kindergarten when I told my friends that if they bully me I would get my dad to beat them up muahahaha. But this event really dawned upon me how much we are alike in character! Admittedly, I have inherited his bad temper and most of his shortcomings that I really hate, but at the same time we are also both 性情中人, as in we would both leave the house in the middle of the night to just buy sliced white bread. I'm not sure where I'll be for my uni studies (maybe I'll end up in good old kent ridge), so I really treasure all the time I have with my parents. Short bonding sessions like this always make me so happy I think I can laugh out in the middle of the night.
