22/1 & 23/1: C & D [Dad's Birthday, Doinky Doodles]

It's Daddy's birthday!

My Dad & Mom went to watch Hachiko with me (yea, 2nd time for me!)

They loved the movie. :D

In fact, I was aware of this heartwarming story long ago as

my Dad told me so.

I think it's actually the 1st time

I watched a movie in the cinema with my Dad!

It is amazing!

Thank God for this opportunity! :)

Though it was the 2nd time I watched this show,

I still wept. :~~]

It is truly touching!

Visited Doinky Doodles to collect my custom-made bag!

I shall post it in my next entry :)

Acquaintances with Benefits

When I was young (in upper primary), my birthday wishes were similar. It was to have many friends. That could be due to the fact that I am an only child and may feel lonely at times. Thanks to my best friends (you know who you are), I seldom feel lonely. I can easily identify who my best friends are.

Friends are essentially different from acquaintances. Acquaintances are typically: #1. People whom you may have only met a few times at an event/function; #2.

Grandfather Lee: YOUR vision, not mine!

Mr Lee (Kuan Yew) is a well-respected figure in my family.

Personally, I am into the idea that one should eliminate anything that brings you down. I know that "eliminate" seems like a BIG word, what I'm trying to put across is, don't let anything come between you and your dreams. To being wealthy is genuinely 1 of my desire.
