my mom is awesome.
seriously.
stop sniggering you ri guys out there, i am aware that many of you think of her as the boring nag who shouts at you in the library and puts you to sleep during those long re lectures, and if you choose to detest her based on that or pity me for being her son, go on lol. see if we care.
i know my mother often feels unappreciated for all that she does for her sons (my bro and me). truth is, we (well i) do take not of this. just today, we she drove me out to popular in tampines just to let me select some assessment books despite her busy schedule, and i really appreciated it. really. she just thinks we don't, and well sometimes we just forget to remind her that we do. (meaning saying thanks).
though she may not seem to care much for my personal interest, but rather keeps bugging me about my academic results, i know this is because she worries more for my future than my present well being. i know how much she blames herself whenever i return with poor results, or whenever i falter.
all this time, she has been a main reason and influence in my passion and concern (don't laugh if you haven't seen this side of me) for the earth we live in, as well as its occupants (meaning us and other animals), and has often shown me the reality i have to face in real life (lol). she had always seen the kindness (seriously.don't laugh) in me, and tried to bring it out as much as possible. this has helped set my ambition to (for the present) study hard, and (for the future) establish myself and have (prefably) a high income, so as to not only provide for myself and my family, but also in order to give back to the community. as she said, "when you are young, you can aspire to do many great things. you may want to go out and help the world, the people. but if you can't get the means to even sustain yourself, how will you help others?"

so um.. even though its still a long way to mother's day, thanks mom, for all the years and sacrifices you have given, and more making my life much more meaningful.
who cares how others see you (or me, after this >.<)? i shall say something i haven't said in a long time, something often taken for granted: i love you mom. (so stop worrying that we will grow up and leave the coop and abandon you, cos that is so not going to happen. >:D)

did that make sense?

oh and i realise i meant to post this for quite sometime: behold! the little ri boy. lul. (yes that's a calculator)
