a mothers’ day letter

Dear My, Ma and Nang,

Just like the typical daughter or son, I rarely (if ever) tell you that I love you.  But I do hope that you know.

And in this letter, I would like to let you know why I know that I do.

I know that I love you because I would always think of you whenever something good would happen to me. Whenever I am in a beautiful place, I’d wish you were there too or would get the chance to be there, as well.  Whenever I eat something delicious, I’d wish you could taste it too.

Whenever people appreciate me for doing something good or for simply being there for them, I’d wish you can hear it too.  Whenever I stand up for my values in even the smallest ways, I’d wish you learn about it.  So that you’ll know that in those moments, I was successful in being the person that you have raised are raising me to be.

I want you to know that I will try my best to do at least half as good as what the three of you have done for me and my brothers (and even cousins).  I still find myself in awe thinking about the selfless acts you’ve done you’ve been doing for us. You may be misunderstood at times, but please know that despite those disagreements and above all those “in between’s”, you are loved.

Happy Mothers’ Day! :)

quarter-year appraisal

As I’ve set, this year would be all about fitness and well-being.  After 4 months, I can say that I am doing a good job.  I haven’t been able to go to the gym often but I am happy to be able to go for ~4km run/walk on a regular basis.

I’ve also been able to play badminton quite often. And I’ve started taking table tennis lessons last week.  Yey!

I just need to do a better job and having breakfast everyday.  I can do this! :)
