I have planned to take Mum out since long ago when I was still working…Perharps…one and a half month ago. Coz I know, on her own..she cant bear to spend.
As planned, we headed to Orchard for some shopping and fine dining(in her terms)…. Perharps the scrimping nature just strives in her that even a pair of shoe for 29.90 is considered expensive to her, a top for 29.90 is considered expensive to her…. It seems that my effort to bring her out to shop is a little failure, especially so whenever I see her putting the items back after looking at the price tag. But well, at least I got her a Espirit top, really hope Mummy likes it.
I took her to Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao coz I thought the food there was nice and suitable for her Oriental tastebuds..So glad that she likes the food…*mummy is a lil glutton*..hees.
And over brunch (or, thats our dinner as well)..She poured out some things on her mind.. I was a listener..listening patiently to her stories which are mainly of work and elder sis… One thing for sure…ther’s never a day she stopped complaining about sis. That’s why sometimes I’m so pissed with her for making Mum so exasperated..
Apparently without self-discipline, I bought myself yet ANOTHER sneakers for dance.. eeks. Koon is getting out of control..
And yes, I cant keep my mind off this vest. For the comfort and design…I bought it even though it’s quite expensive…BUt i really love it!
On a sidenote, I realised that both Mum and I are advocates of FREEDOM when it comes to relationship. It’s something that I don’t know until today. She recalled the dating story with Dad where she or they dont even ask each other where they are going, which means NO reporting. And surprisingly, she commented that yin is not giving Junwen enough freedom. I’m real surprised by that.. Perharps it’s inheritance from her that I’m crazy bout freedom.
Then again, with too much of such self freedom..my money is flowing at the fastest rate possible..
And well, my plan of not letting her pay a single cent today was to let her enjoy herself to the fullest.. Hopefully it did help her de-stress..even though I ended up shopping much much more for myself..
I think I really have to hide at home
