Yeah, yesterday is a money-searching day..hee, sounds terrible eh? But that's what happened..ermm, I shouldn't elaborate here but I was really caught left, right, front and back. No way out and at my wit's end. Luckily, there's my beloved mother to rescue me (after the lengthy nagging, eheh!). Thanks, mom!
Thought the money-searching had indeed ended. But after my Maghrib prayer, was resting when I saw my rack of CDs under the PC- workstation covered in dust and the idea just struck me there and then. Going thru the stacks of Westlife, N Sync, Savage Garden, The Corrs, Ricky Martin and endless list of unlistened CDs, I arranged and packed them off. Where to? Where else but the Cash Converters shop to make some money. heh!
Make a quick call to my mom to arrange to meet somewhere and I headed for the shop. And guess how much I earned? Nearly $50 for those 23 CDs, not bad eh? I wasn't expecting much especially after watching the lady before me selling CDs too and managed to sell them off only at $0.50 per piece. I was quite disappointed and started to figure out at what price will my CDs sell. Later I found out the CDs the lady was selling are not original ones and had to be sold at lower prices. Fuhh, lucky mine were ori eh? So there I was walking out of the shop $50-richer. hee..
Rush off to meet my parents for dinner...ermm, a very rare occassion. But quite touching indeed. Well, I know it's just a dinner at KFC. As my relationship had never been better with my parents. We were not close before and have even been on not-talking terms. But it got better lately. I know I've been quite bitter as a daughter. Keras kepala! Tak pernah dengar cakap my parents. I'm always in the right. And I also felt that my parents aren't treating me fair as a daughter. They have always been on my brothers side. I'm been denied a lot of attention. And that really made me despise them. But as time goes by, I realised that love and attention is something that I couldn't demand. It comes naturally. So if my parents love my brothers more than me, so let it be. I learnt to accept the fact.
But since, my brothers got married (especially my 2nd bro, Abang Izal), they got closer to me. Well, I'm the only left there..hee..We can now eat and talk together. And this has been such a relief to me. No matter how far you go and where you are, you still got your family to turn to right? I also had this feeling that when I've things on my mind, I just want to be close with my mom. Even though, I sometimes don't share my problems with her but knowing she's always near is indeed a warm feeling.
