happy father's day!

today, i learnt an important lesson from a prison inmate. i'm not talking abt christopher lee of course. ha ha ha!

i went to the kaki bukit prison school this morn as my company is organising a father's day teddy bear making workshop for the inmates. their family and children could visit them and make a teddy bear together wif them.

if u ask me to make a teddy bear wif my dad now, i'll definitely think that is damn boliao and a total waste of time, but not to those kids. one of the inmates had 3 kids. since they know abt this activity two months ago, they had been pestering their dad about it, and he is particularly grateful to the prisons dept for organising it because he could finally hug and touch his children again. his children could only visit him during the school holidays and each time, it is through a glass panel so he really treasure the opportunity.

it was quite sad to hear him say that. i couldnt recall the last time i hug my dad. i think the last time i saw and spoke to my dad was last weekend.
i do feel quite ashamed of myself now. i have a cute, doting and joker dad. ok, like most dads, he is long winded and full of complaints. but he is responsible and never fails to take care of the family.
he always calls me to ask if i need dinner. each time he comes home, he will knock on my bedroom door and greet me 'da xiao jie' instead of me greeting him first :P
but all i felt was guilt now, because i always appear impatient at his long-windedness. when his eyesight got worse in these few years, i told him that its because he watched too much porn in his younger days :P
although i am not a very expressive person, i would still love to tell him that we still do love him and care about him very much.
happy father's day, papa!
