My Troublesome Dad

ARGH! I am at wit's end. Cant deal with my dad at all. Okay, here's what happening. (it still happens now!) He cannot leave the house without being overly concerned about the clothes that were left out to dry in the sun. His mind would always revolve around the clothes, whether are they dry, whether is it going to rain, when must he keep the clothes and blah blah. I understand that he's currently going through andropause (similar to menopause but this only applies to males)and hence there's this role reversal process going on between mom and dad. In short, the female becomes less and less concerned with household stuff and behaves more like a male (with the heck-care attitude), however the male becomes more and more female-like, displaying certain characteristics such as bossiness, quarrelsome and also with the incessant nagging. Dad has become Mom and it's driving us all nuts. Haha. One moment he's nagging about the clothes and the other moment he's frustrated because he cannot find the keys at home. Everyone in the family feel normal with the mess in the house except for my dad. He wakes up so early to do housechores, when everyone are still sleeping, even on weekends! Even my mom laments that on sundays when she's not working and she just wants to get a couple more hours of sleep, the noise from the vacuum cleaner, the clinging and clanging of pots and pans at the basin would wake her up. Even right now when I am blogging, he's already nagging about his keys (cuz I hid them purposely as he didn want to go out with me). Haha. We are all childish, father or daughter. Initially I wanted to bring him out to northpoint to walk around and have lunch since the renovation works are almost done. However he insisted that he only wanted to eat at a coffeeshop downstairs. He has been eating at the same place almost daily. That was why I wanted to bring him elsewhere, at least to the shopping mall, which is only nearby. The biggest problem with dad is that he is too calculative and he scrimps and saves. But what's the point of saving so much money? Dad is no longer that young and I just wish that he can try out some nice food and visit nice places instead of always eating the same old dishes at coffeeshops. We can afford all that and it's only once in a while. That's why I always insist on bringing him out to malls to see the outside world. He shouldn always stay cooped at home or just go downstairs. Okay, I will try to persuade him to go out with me this thursday again, since he would be going to see the doc in the morning. So I would tag along and drag him somewhere! Hope this time around my mission would be accomplished! I would pay for his meals so that he dont haf to worry about money again. And I hope it does not rain! Otherwise he will go nuts again about the clothes. Haha. This entry seems hilarious. I love my family especially my Dad although sometimes he can really be a headache as he behaves like a kid. Haha. Sometimes a big family can be fun

Ha. I had just seen myself on TV! Only appeared for like a duration of 5 seconds on the variety show although both my cousin and I stayed in the restaurant for like 45 minutes! Haha. But since the food was on the house, we did not mind staying longer :D My cousin waited for so many weeks just to have a glimpse of herself on national tv, yet she missed the chance as she didnt watch it from the beginning of the show! HAHA. Dumbo. Our faces appeared right in the beginning of the show when the hosts introduced the restaurant in Iluma. The restaurant is called AJ's piri piri chicken and is located at Iluma, Bugis. They offer food that are healthy and suitable for those who are on diet. Prices are reasonable too, so drop by if you have time! Haha. I seriously sound like a promoter for the restaurant :D

Hope to see the Just for Laugh Gags Spore edition for the unforgettable birthday celebration! Once again, it's my cousin and I!! Haha, we were worried sick when our "patient" ran away! Catch the episode next year when the series start! I realise that strange but interesting things do happen when I am out with my cousin. Haha. I wonder if that's good!
