Mum vs Bedsheet
Tuesday, July 5th, 2005Honestly, some people reallliiii have weird hobbies. Like my mum, for one, her hobby is ….. collecting bedsheets (whether she admits it or not). Recently she just bought 3 more bedsheets. Couldn’t really blame her, the discount was fantastic. From like $25.00 to just $2.70. So yah… what do you expect. Then the next day, she tried to clean up her cupboard. I am SO SO amazed to see that many new bedsheets arranged neatly in the cupboard (apparently she was trying to keep the newly bought ones in the cupboard). Not to mention her collection in indo (many as it happens). She and daddy already had argument over it. As it happens, daddy, the logical one wanted her to use those bedsheets. Mum, the sentimental one refused to, saying that those are gifts from I dunno who and who, not to mention damn expensive (must be the material???). So daddy asked what she gonna do with them if not use it; it’s not like she can bring them into afterlife. She responded that she wanted to give it us (me and my sister). Dad then asked me point blank if I wanted them as "inheritance". I went "errr… ehm…." for like a whole minute. How to answer that kind of question. Of course I agree with the logical dad that those bedsheets should be used, but I cannot hurt mum’s feelings rite? So, under the glares, I said "Can I dun answer this now and run away?" Not very tactful, but what else can I do.
