Shopaholic Me

FATTY IS BACK FROM KUNMING. 
Finally.

I missed him more than I expected. It's pretty obvious that I'm closer to Fatty than Syafiq. The bond I have with Fatty is just special. I can say it's probably due to the fact that we used to sleep together. When I was in JC, he was still sleeping with me. Unlike Syafiq who would never give a damn when I'm sick, Fatty will usually be the one taking care of me whenever I'm sick and whiny. I still love both my brothers. I can't say equally but if anything unwanted ever happen to any of them, I'll definitely go an extra mile to help them.



I decided to pick him up at the airport last Sunday after my mentoring session at MAEC. 

This year is a little different. I'm no longer helping out with the PSLE kids. I'm helping out with the Upper Secondary kids this time round. Harder, definitely. But the issue here is really, I'm actually helping the kids that used to be my first batch of PSLE kids. How time really flies... they're now going to be done with the secondary education. Has it really been 4 years?

That aside. So Fatty's flight got changed and kinda delayed. So I had to wait for over an hour. It was pretty great to actually meet and talk to the parents of his other classmates. Fatty's life is pretty much planned by me. I'm glad that I chose ACS(I) for him because he got to experience things I didn't get to experience when I was his age.



The moment he walked out to the arrival hall, I saw him carrying this gorilla soft toy. So I thought, oh I wonder what did he get for all of us from China. And before I know it, this is the only thing he bought from China. He clearly does not know how to shop. Sheesh.

Dad was pretty happy to see that Fatty didn't overspend. Instead, he brought back a whole lot of Chinese yuan back. He didn't use much of what my parents change for him. My parents couldn't help it but to just laugh. Every kid is different.

Syafiq and I... oh we are those children who will spend the money our parents give us. If we could spend it all, we would. The more you give, the more we will spend. For me, I think a million times to ask more of what is given to me. But I will try to use all of what is given to me. If I could buy something for $0.10 and I'm left with that, I will buy it. My motto will be to make full use of what is given to you. For Syafiq, he will try his very best to persuade my parents to give more. If he needs to write an essay, he probably would. The more the better, that's his motto.

But Fatty, nah shopping isn't his thing. Clothes? As long as it covers his naked body, that'll make do. Skin care? Wrinkles will appear no matter how much you spend your money on all these anti-aging products. That gorilla... he actually won it at an arcade. He didn't even buy it. Playing games and win something? That's killing two birds with one stone. You can have fun and get something in return. More economical. Let's go with that. Pretty sure that was what went through his mind. Guess in future if he's the richest among the three of us, we all know why.


Fatty with his homies.

According to Daya, Fatty looks like me.
Nope, I do not agree with this.
