(no subject)
Today was one of those days which I found rather interesting because it was not like my usual 'go-to-college-come-back-home-go-online-sleep' routine.
My aunt from Penang came down for the weekend and stayed over at my place for a night. Today my mum and I had to drive her to the Taman Bahagia LRT station and wait for her ride to pick her up.
After successfully securing a parking spot at the station, the 3 of us waited in the car. We spent the whole time talking...mostly about family stories and all. But what I found most interesting was where the conversation was led to after awhile.
The topic of the conversation was partners in life. It was very amusing listening to my mum and her older sister talking about how girls should find their partners. My mum is more conservative in thinking compared to my aunt. My aunt says that girls nowadays have to be aggresive and take the first step, whereas my mum says that the girl should not go after the guy. In addition to that my aunt told us about her daughters' experiences with their nightmare admirers which I found very amusing, too (of course I do symphatize my cousins whom had to go those horrific times).
My aunt expressed her concerns about her daughter not having a boyfriend after so long when she was still in college/university which somehow lead the 'spotlight' of the conversation to me.
Aunt: "So Grace, got boyfriend or not?"
Me: "Don't have..."
Aunt: "Why? Nobody chase after you?
Me: *silence*
Mum: "Everybody scared of her mah..."
Me: (-_-)"
Somehow I wonder whether what my mum said is true.
After my aunt's ride came, my mum and I made our way back home. I wasn't really looking forward to finishing my readings for tomorrow's class but my worries were swept away by the beautiful sight in front of me.
No, it was not Daniel Henny crossing the road (Though I wish it happened).
It was a beautiful sunset. The sight was amazing as the city landscape was shadowed by the sun. I couldnt capture a photo of it but I knew that if I had my digicam with me, it would have been a priceless shot.
Untill now I feel good about being able to witness that sight. It makes me grateful to be alive.
Well I gotta. Till next time....ciao. :)
