Every year after i celebrated my birthday,i always see myself as an even mature girl knowing that there will be more challenge on the road for me to face. It had been so long since i helped my mum out with the house chores for that i'm always in the study room doing what a student should do..I always told myself that I have to do my responsibility as mummy's girl well just for one reason. I have to give my mum a better life..My mum was from a poor family and I remembered she had told me many times before that her life can be refered to the malays peribahasa ''kais makan pagi,kais makan petang''. My grandmother and grandfather was so poor that they decided to change their future,building up a business. As my mum was the second eldest in her family,she had to stop school early in order to help her parents in plucking the prawns, making the 'ikan masin, and many more..Everyday,she had to wake up at 4 am to help them with business and since the school is only one foot away from home,my mum will only run to school when the school bell rang.Haha..mayb this is how i get the last-minute attitude from her.^^ W3ll, i'll just stop talking about her past life coz what had past,already past..what is left is just memories.
I remembered that my mum was a house wife and my dad didn't allow her to learn to drive the car cuz he was worried that she will be involve in an accident. However, my mum didn't give up easily. Seeing that my dad works in Johor and will only come back home every two weeks once, she sees this golden opportunity as a chance for her to drive the vehicle. After learning how to drive, she felt slighty worried that my dad will scold her so she told my sis and i not to tell my dad anything about it. However, secret does not last long and thank goodness,my dad accepted my mum's decision..Tell you what,whenever my mum drives my dad to the bank, she'll boast that she can drive better than him and my dad will just keep his mouth tight..he can't deny..haha..
My mum's best subject is maths so she expected every kids under her care to be good in it..because of that my sis,couz,bro and I aged from 5 to 8 are force to memories the timestable.Imagine that..all us will sit in one huge circle and with her sitting in the middle with the cane. The younger ones r lucky as that they only need to memories until the times 2. While,the older ones have to memories until times 12..And whenever we fail to say all the timetables correctly, she'll hit our lil hands and force us to re-remembered the timestable without anyone's help. Occasionally, she will be giving out math question papers and one wrong means one hit from the cane.
