Holidaying

The first time and the last time I went holidaying with my parents for a few days was when I was in Primary 5. It was ages ago and we went to Genting highland

Other than that, the other time I went holidaying was when I was in Secondary 4. I went with the school. We went to Thailand that time.

Last year, my mum's eldest brother got 'jio' us go holidaying together but as that time, my parents started doing a business (which in the end quit), we did not go.

This year, my mum's youngest brother 'jio' us go Genting together. As it had been very long since we last go holidaying, my mum agreed. I did not quite agreed actually especially when the fact that we'll be going with the 3 kids.

There are many reasons why I hope that we need not go.
Michelle, the eldest, Primary 2, easily cried.
Nelson, K2, very blur, pretty naughty.
Wilson, the youngest, 2 yr +, very sticky to the mother, very noisy when mother around, etc, etc.
And when Nelson and Wilson are together, boy and boy together means play, noise, naughty, fight, etc.
Somemore, my uncle's temper had always been unable to tolerate such nonsenses.
And my mum will sure be stuck with the kids, will sure grumble eventually, will sure keep thinking of them, etc.
Somemore, my mum had been too reliant on the Diamond water system at home. Bring water everywhere she go.
Plus, previously, they had another maid who they want to bring along to help take care of the kdis but then that maid went back already. & now they hired another maid but they aren't bringing her along.
etc etc

When people go for holiday, they would want to go and relax or do whatever they want. And not get stuck with other people's kids, with facing black faces, etc. So with all these bits and pieces here and there, I doubt the holiday will be very enjoyable.

But it's also true that we had not been going on holiday. and somemore I can't say 'NO'. So I had to go along.

But as my aunt had been doing everything at a slow pace, she haven't been able to confirm the date and number of days till recently. She only give us a tentative date of either going on the 3rd or the 10th of June. So my dad could not tell his boss and his colleague had confirmed the holiday date with the boss and it clashed with the date if we going on 10/6. Somemore, my dad boss signed my dad for a forklift course on the 8th, 11 and 12th June. This again clashed with the date.

So my mum told my aunt and only then after checking out her possible holiday leaves, she realized she could not take leaves not the 4th, 5th and 6th June.


Therefore, our timing and her timing clashes so we aren't going to Genting. So it can be a good thing for me and my dad and even my mum. And somemore, I can save more leaves and save more money. But it really been very long since my parents took a break and went for holiday.

So it can be good and bad depend on how you see it.
