My Dearest Ma Cha

9Nov/090

She is 48 this year but to me, she is still the 30 plus aunty from a decade ago. To be honest, I always lost track to how old she is each year and I almost always go by current year minus 1961. Shhhh..

She is such a dear when it comes to juggling our daily activities/needs. Just tell her that you're running low on shampoo, shower foam or facial cleanser, you'll get it the next day. Sudden crave for laksa? No problem. She'll take you to your usual laksa stall for breakfast the next morning. Don't mention to her that you're having sore throat or else some black-colored chinese herbal tea will appear in front of you. But.. mind you, she can be very fierce when you start to annoy her. Someone in the family knows it best :p

As such, we have never failed to surprise her on her birthday each year and we have always been putting up something different everytime.
