Most of the weekends I spent at dear's house, we will be accompanying his parents...felt kinda bad cos I neglected my mum quite badly. Compared to his parents, I consider myself lucky as my mum is still pretty normal (although she got a bad temper). His parents are kinda wierd...dad likes to brag and never will admit he is wrong (can understand cos he and I share a bit of same character). But it can get quite frustrating when you're trying to put a point across to him. His mum keeps to herself...a lot. She treats me really well...made soup for me after I had my eye surgery and bought me tonics due to my cough. I wouldn't say she's a bad person..but she doesn't realise how fortunate she is. She doesn't have to earn her living...but yet spends a lot of money on unneccesary items...we got all our house cleaning stuff from her cos she got too many of them. The only thing I can't stand about her is the lack of concern for wastage and a little bit of selfishness.
Dad basically treats his family and friends similarly...sometimes I can't really tell which is more impt to him, his work, his friends or his family? Without the names of Mum and Dad, one can never tell they're a family. hmm..wierd.
Sometimes I do get quite pissed with dear for trying so hard to please everyone and made himself or me (sometimes) suffer as a result. Eg. in order to accomodate his dad's time, I have to go home 2-3hours late or we can't go the places we planned to go cos his parents is tagging along. Sometimes they don't get the hint that we want to spend time together alone...afterall, its not only their weekend. If only parents can be openminded and outgoing by nature..at least thats what I aim to be in future.
