Mamita



No the title has nothing to do with Beyonce's song =P
I just thought the song was good.. catching her singing in the ellen show (who i think is more comfortable to watch, compares to Oprah).

Well mamita is..
a lady who comes to our house now and then to do housekeeping.
i am not sure why i decide to write this.
probably it's the impressively neat room of ours that inspires me.

for those who have been to braddell.. they know how messy me and my brothers are.
but no matter how messy we would get,
mamita will take care of it.
she has never failed, not even once.. to change our disaster room into a decent one.

maybe that's the gift of a woman.
but i am pretty sure that we have never had such an incredible housekeeper like her.
for a start.. she stays in private condo while we stay in hdb ^^
and secondly.. she is honest.

when my life ends.. i would think of amazing people God has allows me to meet.
like my family.
and some of my NUS friends..
and mamita.

she oft reminds me of how God..
in similar way..
in all His grace, would equal all the mess I made.
and turns my life around.

everytime i pushed Him away,
and begin my xxx'th sequel of the 'prodigal son' story,
He would wait for my return,
complete with all the stain and mess,

and He wouldn't ask where I got all those,
or how, or why.. coz He knows.
instead, He would take me in and cleanse me.
and He never fails.

but mamita will not be there for me forever,
and God's patience, is not something to be taken for granted.

so this year, my daily prayer would be Moses' one.
that God.. you would grant me the wisdom to number my days,
and to make the most out of it, with You.

journal: a little update

wow I am actually back to this blog. between Apr 27 2018 and now.. what has happened? I officially proposed to my girlfriend (wah.. trust me you gonna miss that word), got married, and.. became a dad. yeah.. all in a matter of less than 2 years. now when you consider the fact that in 2015 I would not have the slightest idea how things would turn out, it just goes to show how life changes in a blink. How is married life? Well.. I am one of those who has pretty pragmatic view when it comes to marriage. I have seen enough to know that relationship is messy. So.. I must say marriage has been way way better than my expectation hah.. For example.. I knew that my wife is a smart woman. I knew some of her shortcoming too.. (and there are some I didn't know till we got married, of course) BUT... here's the big bonus. I didn't know she can be that adorably funny in her own way. Not funny like a standup comedian funny but.. you know.. she makes me laugh. Trust me.

Hmm..

si mahasiswa NTU yg bunuh diri itu denger2 namanya david. sigh.. mgkn final year presssure was too much to him. jadi inget masa2 kerjain final year project, tinggal 3 bulan dan gua maseh blank. untung ngga masuk berita ky dia. life is a funny thing. well since there is a chance that this may not be a simple suicide, lets not assume so. maybe there's a truth behind this. duh.. jd inget kalo di conan trus dia bilank, "ini bukan bunuh diri.. ini adalah kasus pembunuhan!" jadi serasa mao jadi detektip -_-
