Happy birthday "old bean"

Another year has passed & my father has gotten older by another year. How time flies for most of us when we look back at our lives & try to make sense of all that we have done or the things that has happened to us, Most of the time, we go through live on the express lane. Study hard, get a good degree, work hard, save money along the way, find a life partner & settle down. Life doesn't get easy from here. In fact, it gets even more hectic. There are bills to pay, parents to look after, careers to build, children to nurture. It won't slow down until we're ready to retire & play with our grandchildren. Is this the life we want?

Anyway birthdays are supposed to be happy occasions. The family decided to have dinner at Crystal Jade (Tampines Mall). Mother bought a slice of cake from BreadTalk. Yummy. We all had a bite of it. Hahaha, reminds of the days when we all shared a can of sof drink because my parents believed that too much soft drinks is not good for health because of all the sugar in it as well as the carbon dioxide. Contary to popular belief, we are not being stingy or we can't afford it. Sometimes, things just taste nicer when there isn't enough for everybody to have their fill. Remember how nice french fries tasted when you pinched them off your sister's place but not that delicious when you had a whole plate to yourself? Feel free to correct me if you think otherwise.

After dinner, we're all bursting at the seams. Burp!!!

Burp burp bleah!!!

Muahahahaha...

No more pigging out!!!
