Dad

My dad refuses to help my friend do her CPF survey. He claimes the questionaire is so long (4 pages) it'd take more time than completing his work. Yup. Thats the same Dad who refuses to wear shorts anywhere. The same Dad who refuses to exercise. The same Dad who refuses to hold on to a directory for fear of throwing face, even though he really doesnt know his way. The same Dad who refuses to let my brother bring a new born kitten into the house. He refuses. Thats what he does.

Yet its the very same Dad who tried to pat me to sleep when I had insomnia. The Dad who obliged to me and my brother's monetary request as long as he can. The Dad who bought cakes for our birthdays. The Dad who bought so many books to fill his cupboards but doesnt exactly read them. The Dad who buys different colors of the same design of shirts coz he simply really likes them...

The Dad who got so drunk after a dinner party when I was 10 that he vowed never to drink again...
The Dad who's belly couldnt possibly get more pregnant then that...

It sounds like if my Dad died, this is what I'd remember of him...is it enough? Maybe one day I need to let him know this. See this. Yes. I should. Its the tuesday with morrie spirit. Before u die, u need everyone to tell u how u lived in their eyes...a pre-death funeral. I told my cousin I wanted that. Would u give it to me? I think u would right? If I asked. Wouldn't you?
