obligatory update

ok so im back from my birthday celebrations but this is not a birthday-what-happened post coz i havent receive all the pictures yet. so i'll just talk about whats happening at home right now!

some of you know my parents squabble alot, especially over the maid. the night before i went off to the resort, the maid actually packed her bags, luggage purse shoes and all, and was crying, wanting to leave the house at like 12 midnight because she "dont want to be the cause of my parent's quarrels and making my mum upset". very dramatic for a maid!

and during the chalet, sinyee pointed out that she remembers the maid from my pictures and we were laughing about it. but today the maid's stay in my household's terminated already!

quite fast leh seriously.

especially when her contract is around 2 years, and she hasnt earned much but only paying off her SIA ticket (not Garuda airlines, as commonly believed) to Singapore and agency fees. which is a really sad thing! and she left without a big farewell; i was taking my long recovery nap when my parents sent her to the agency.

ahhhh! i dont know how the family's going to be like without her. it's a huge change. now my mum has to wash the dishes .. *ok im really spoilt at home and dont have to wash dishes, truth be told* and we cant bully anyone to do the dirty jobs like killing the cockroaches from the cockroach trap, cleaning up Lucky's poop, carrying the heavy things.. I HAVE TO CARRY MY OWN SET OF KEYS NOW!!! omg! i am so scared i would get locked out of my house! :'( need more jurong friends nao!

you see right, my dad was angry with my sister for not coming back home after the evening she came to celebrate my bday. he thought she was being irresponsible mum to the baby, but it's cumulative really. and my dad was sick of my mum's jealousy fits over the maid. so he decided to sent the baby to the in-laws side to care for the baby and the maid away (since she had indicated she wants to quit many times).

so now, the house is really quiet and i feel like a only child. :'(

i sort of missed the times when my sister was at home and we're both able to play together (ages ago). and i also miss having the baby around. it's a huge change! i am so silly for looking at the photo albums of chloe, now i am abit teary. i've seen the baby grow, fed her milk and painstakingly put her to sleep before the maid arrives to take the job. watch the baby grow from a chubby fat thing to tall baby; carried her from a fragile thing to one with a weak neck to that of her not able to stand and being so heavy to now a baby who's able to walk really soon.

i haven seen her walk without having to hold onto anything for support though! doubt i could catch the moment now.

i dont get why my dad and my sister cannot co-exist peacefully. nobody's wrong, yet nobody's right either. my dad is a difficult man, but i never thought he's that unreasonable. and i think it's difficult for those who has developed emotional attachments to the baby, being robbed away of something dear so capriciously.

"give me back my baby!" is something that will ring in my head and never go away. :( anyway got to act tough so my mum wont give in to her emotions and start saying she misses xuan xuan (another affectionate term for chloe) and crying or mope around the house. but i guess she's happier now without the maid at home.

ah just one night, and this happens. why like that..
