i was going to write about fatherhood 2 hours ago until i got something. so now i have to digress a bit.
i wonder what rules am i going to set in my family next time. i am very disapproving of people (read girls) that buy lots of bags and clothes.(sorry dianne). i guess some people have different priorities in life.. i am saving every single cent i can so that i can quickly finish paying off this d#$% house. then i can live/die in peace knowing that i have did everything in my powers to provide a roof for my family. so when i see people (read girls) just mindlessly buying clothes and bags and worst of all, not even wearing or using them or selling them. i wonder what goes through that head that went through 20 odd years of singapore education. maybe we came from different background, maybe they (read girls) were pampered by their parents over the years such that they do not need to worry about their next meal or future. i sure pray that nothing catastrophic happens to them because i know if that happens. they will never be able to take that sorta of hardship.
anyway back to fatherhood. i sure hope baby ashlyn grows up to be a fine young lady. well, there is no use hoping, it is left to us to teach her the correct values and bring her up correctly.
fatherhood is just like falling in love, just that u dont have a choice of choosing ur gf/bf. and u are sure to fall in love with ur baby. u can stare at her the whole day and not get bored. u can change 10 time s nappies for her in 2 hours and not grumble. maybe thats just cause i am only 2 weeks into fatherhood? and cause i have a maid in my mother in law house to help the nappies and the other miscellaneous stuff. i see other parents scolding their 3-5 year old kids when they are naughty or pee on their pants. i wonder will i be like that? only time will tell ya.. only time will tell…
oh ya.. and i am posted to another department in my company. the office is like freaking far away man. loyang that area.. i took 2 hours to go work the first day i took public transport.. faint man… but never mind.. at least i can go home everyday unlike my previous department where i have to work overnight.. i have to do OT too but i guess thats not too bad.. like what daniel said, maybe this place will do me good? make me a better man!!!!
