Feel like Xena....

My mum just makes me feel like Xena.
Going out with her, always make me look like one..
Been trained since young, to carry heavy bags of grocery, or even 10kg rice...
All the way back from the stupid Hougang Mall...

Today's 6+ kg of plastic bags of meat and coffee powder is REALLY nothing..

Nothing compared to yesterday's.
And yesterday I had to walk from my house...
To Avenue 5...
To Avenue 3 old market...

Oh.. The old market hasn't changed for 20 years!
Same grocery stall, but expanded...
Same photography studio...
Same shoe shop..
Same candy shop...
Same fried carrot cake shop..
Yes yes..
Aunties and Uncles!
I'm the small girl that tag along my aunt and my mum to the market last time!
HELLO!!! *Geez*

Then carry even more things from the old market..
Take bus 72 to Tampines...
Then carry over 7 or 8 kg or more of food, rice, fruits, packet drinks..
And whatever is in those plastic bags..
That's not all..
Still had to carry those heavy stuffs and walked like... 1km? or more?
To reach my grandma's place near that circular wet market in Tampines..

Well.. I can't bear to let my old aunty and my old mother to carry the lightest thing..
So.. Just have to bear with the weights-training under the horrific hot sun.
Now I know where I get my strength from...
You never want to get any whackings from me... hehe.. trust me..
10% of my power is already intolerable to some.. lol..





Happy Birthday Grandma...
Hope that you'll still remember me.
I'm your grand-daughter, you know?
