20/06/10 It's 4 o'clock in the morning and I can't sleep. T was going through excruciating pain so I stayed awake to comfort him. He's asleep now but I'm still up because I'm furious. Due to heavy traffic, he had to drive 5 and a half hours, instead of 3, to pick his cousin up. I don't know how on earth he can manage to send her back to school today. Don't get me wrong. I'm not furious at the young girl because it's not her fault. It's her parents and a family member of T's whom I dare not to mention here that I have problem with for putting us in this situation! T was too nice so he couldn't say no to them. I, on the other hand, am not that righteous! The 'filial piety is the core of the Chinese culture' card won't wash with me! So don't expect me to show unquestioning obedience to your unreasonable request just because you are older than me!

不論多忙,我們都包接送包吃包住。無所謂!你們這麼有錢,給我們添了如此多麻煩,卻從來没表示要給回錢我們或請我們吃飯。這也無所謂。可是謝謝也沒一句?是因為我們晚輩為長輩服務是應該的?因為孝道這兩個字?抱歉,下一次不管是誰的子女送來英國唸書都好,一律不管我的事! I will have enough problem looking after my own kid(s), let alone yours!
