This is the most recent picture i can find when we were in Singapore last year. Looks like a happy family? Think again.
Let's see..... my family have a huge history i think.
My old man's side :
1. Born from a poor family and a village called Teluk Intan, Perak, Malaysia.
2. Have a dad(grandad), a mom(grandma), 4 sisters and 1 brother.
3. Lived a very 'kampung'(village) life.
4. Turned 18 and started working until now.
My mom's side :
1. Born from a better funded family and a town called Sandakan, Sabah, Malaysia.
2. Have a dad(grandad) who passed away early, a mom(grandma) *most beloved one who is still surviving*, 1 elder sister and 3 younger brothers.
3. Started working part-time from time to time since she was 16 and helped my grandma sell veggie since young.
4. Turned to i dunno what age and went to england for further studies and so.
5. Traveled to many places and went back to her hometown to work.
Alright...that's pretty much the short short summary of their past.
Time for my generation.
Skip both of my sisters and just jump to me.
Me :
1. Born from an average family and a town called Sandakan, Sabah, Malaysia.
2. Have a ****** dad, a blur mom and 2 sisters.
3. Lived a normal town life and soon to a city life.
4. Turned 4 and started hating my life.
For the current situation as in pretty much now.
My family is pretty much funded around average and above average.
Let's just say we have enough money to *eat* and spend.
I can say my life is pretty swell for many people with a comfy house, cars and whatever we need.
My allowance is also very generous though i'm not much of a spender also and a saver instead.
We (my sisters and i) have good education, nice life and nice food. You know, everything necessary.
For example....both my sisters are studying in some expensive college and university called Sunway College.
They both have their own cars, laptop, cellphone, room and some other stuff.
The problem is......
The attitude and personality of my WHOLE family is pretty messed up....including me ofcourse. This is a fact i can't deny.
Our relationship is like....once each of us start going out for work, we're probably dead to each other.
To start it of again for right now.....
1. My old man : He's pretty much the boss of the house as his the 'dad'. He is the type of guy who acts like his a really good parent and husband outside but when his at home. He is usually a horrible person.
He'll order to do all sort of stuff and scold you like mad when you did 1 or 2 minor mistakes. He rushes everyone every single time he does something. If one of us back talk to him even a little....we're pretty much whacked or something. This old man always tries to act young even if he's 51 and old already. Hm....he goes travelling all the time by himself and without informing us. (usually he just calls us up and tells us his in Indonesia or something, we're pretty used to it so it's no surprise) He complains about his money all the time when he spends most of his earnings on unnecessary stuff. For example, he have one expensive superbike and yet he still buys another more expensive superbike or he keeps upgrading his car stereo and speed when he doesn't even use it much. The best thing about him is, he treats me like some freeloader living in HIS house. I bet he's regretting why the heck he wished for a son in the first place when recently he said 'WHY DO I HAVE SUCH A STUPID SON?!' Don't worry old man, i also regretted being the sperm that got born, Message to you old man : Just lend me some money through college and university first, after i'm through with that, i'm through with you too and you can go tell everyone that your son passed away or something if you want to.
2. My mom : She's a really blur mom at times....I can't believe how she was able to travel around to world and work all types of odd jobs and even studied in Britian or England or something!!! Though all of those were for naught. She did badly in her studies every time and got very little fruit. She works all the time, find money, house work or taking care of the kids. Almost all the responsibility is pushed aside to her!!! I'm not saying that it's a bad thing being a good mother and all but she can be really blur. For one thing, even when she doesn't know anything, she still doesn't bother to listen!!! I heard usually when kids have problem or anything, they'll call talk to their mom. I did the same too, i told my mom about almost everything necessary. What do i get in return? No reaction...i ask her back and she'll be like, what did you say? She doesn't really care about our life's problem! She only cares about our safety and life education, MOM i might suicide one day, will you care then?! Right now, things are getting even worst. All she cares about is money money money, looking money for her children education and her retirement spending. What did she forget? THE BIG PICTURE!!! US!! HER FRICKIN CHILDREN! We're probably so independent that she doesn't care and just looks for MONEY! She also complains about all types of stuff. Well at least she takes care of us like look after us when we're sick or bring us out to eat good food and dessert.
3. My Eldest Sister : She's pretty much what you would called a b****. She takes her time doing almost everything and a loooong time at that. Dresses like she's gonna go to a party everyday. Do really badly in her exams these days. Unreliable and undisciplined. My sister was brought up the same way as me and my other sis was but she started to get rotten when she turned 16. Since she has a car, she'll go anywhere she likes and comes home anytime she likes. For example, going out at 10.00 a.m and coming back 2.00 a.m. Her excuses are usually going for church activity or friends gathering, stuff like that~ By the way, she spends the second most in this household (coz my old man things are much more expensive). Buys all sort of dresses, clothes and high-heels when she doesn't actually wears them much. Applies for gym membership but doesn't even go for ONCE in a MONTH. If i ask her anything, she'll be like owh...don't care...none of business....something is the past i don't care. How does she spends her time during the holidays? Watches dramas and stuff throughout the day then complains about how much work or busy she is afterwards.
Typical.
4. My Second Sister : This sister is more caring and better than the eldest one. She is a really odd one though. She can be really hardworking in her studies or co-curricular in school but very lazy when it comes to something that has to do with the family. As in, like when go out for shopping together or have drink, for sure she'll decline. She's also addicted to her shows and get agitated really really fast if anyone disturbs her during her showtime. She cooks for the family almost every night. This sister can be really annoying at times, she may be quiet outside but really noisy inside. The most annoying part of her is probably her 'not necessarily' every time if you try to state out something to her. She'll try to debate with you for some reason causing unnecessary argument.
5. Me : I'm probably what i would like to call the 'curse of this family'. Every single family has a flaw in one of their member, for my family, that would be me. Since young, i have been always been a troublemaker.
Fighting with my sister, arguing with my teachers, fight with other kids since kindergarten. Yeah...i'm the one who got whacked the most by my old man, my mom, my grandma and yes even my teachers. I'm the most rebellious and odd one in my household. Always putting my mom in awkward situation. There was one time when i was 7....i think i made some new teacher in the tuition center cry telling my mom she wants to quit because of me or the time when my mom meet my kindergarten teachers after i friggin scold them. Alright forget the past, i've grown up right now. My discipline and behavior at least reaches above average compared to the average students. I like to state whatever the truth is.... like my old man treats me like shit and my mom constantly ignores my problems or when something bad is about to happen to someone. I'm pretty much on a silent war with my old man likewise to him and me. I think he's some kind of bastard and he probably thinks i'm some kind of cursed child.
Conclusion : We are one big happy family.
