Have you ever had a feeling that your relatives (yes you heard me right,my relatives..my dad's side as well..) is trying to ruin your life?? well to them,its so called advise to the younger generation, but to me its just them trying to stick their nose into someone else's business. Yeah, im your niece & your my uncle, so i respect you in giving your advise to me, i'll listen but wont completely.
You might think my parents was the ones that suggested to my relative that he talked to me about it,but you're wrong..its him that busy-body & geh poh my stuff. Yes, people say that you should always respect your elder & their advise is worth listening to, but times have changed lar..not all their advise that they give is suited in the situations faced by the younger generations of today and tomorrow. I admit i am stubborn at times (my baby knows that of me very well..), and thinks that only my solution is the best (only when you really have pissed me off & keep badgering me about how good your's is & etc), now i see otherwise..i look for other people's opinions especially my baby's to see what they would do if in my situation, most importantly though, i don't need someone that just decides to step in and tell me what to do without me asking for his/her advise or opinion...*kindly acknowledges with a smile (yet secretly feel like telling you to mind your own bloody business).
Well anyway, this relative have decided to ruin my birthday by telling me on the night of my big-day that he wants to talk to me alone and that was through the phone when my dad called him to ask about qing ming..(thanks for ruining the rest of my night yah..), anyway i digressed...i was like "ok,yeah whatever..bring it.." (wasn't in the mood already..), then something hit me, thinking to myself.."talk to me alone"?? so you could just say stuff and that i have to accept it cause you're the elder, and so i have no chance to defend myself?? Hah!! good luck trying, no offence to people, but my mind has been made up, talk all you want..i'll listen but it'll just go in one ear and come out the other. Oh and need to remind myself to bring a pail, so i could catch the cold water that he decides to pour on me or maybe just an umbrella would do. Anyway he said he's going to call me later before dinner time to see when it could be done. Wouldn't mind it being at a coffee shop, so atleast i could fix my eyes on other passer-by whilst listen to him yapping away.
Would post about the outcome of the "meet up" after it happens. Do wish me luck. P/s: Im old enough to make my own rational decisions...

don't let anyone steal your joy! You can't control how other people act, what they do or say, only your reaction to it!
