Arrgh...

Yesterday, I celebrated Chinese New Year with my husband and his family. My family is not really big on celebrating this day, thus each year, I stay with my other family to celebrate rather than going home to my mom (which I really really much prefer to).

This year was my mom's first year to celebrate the new year without my dad and I so much want to do anything (i.e: stay with her) to make her happier because although no one speaks about it, we (me & my sis) know how sad she would be. Regardless, I stayed with my husband & his family - I have to because this year, they celebrated the new year in the new house and my reason to accompany my mom is not strong enough. Why? The same explanation every year, this day is really important for his family (maybe the most important day in a year), while my family not so much. (not so much doesn't mean we didn't celebrate; we just don't do the whole nine yards like you guys do!)

So...there I was. A stranger among them....No, this is not the topic, this is just one of the fact that I have accepted proudly & happily.

Here is the point...I, again, heard that one comment I dislike hate. It came out from the same and new relatives (so, yes...it's more than once). So, writing it on my blog was definitely not stopping this people from being rude. FYI, this remark was never intended for me (maybe because they knew I didn't like it - so why do they keep saying it? Hmmm....because they were monster?), it was mostly to the pround grandparent or my husband or other relatives of his, who agree wholeheartedly with this remark. And...when they said it, I was there, standing (mostly close to my daughter), being obvious and seen and hurt and torn and mad. Sometimes, they even said it in their language, but I just knew.

To end this...let me say:
"Awww....your son/daughter is so...cute (ha...ha...ha...). He/she sure do like your husband/sister in law/brother in law/mother in law/father in law/aunt/uncle/cousin (from husband's sides) and so on and so on....." (you get the point). "You sure do not like your mother " (of course, this line is not supposed to be said outloud...that would be rude).

Enjoy that!!! You sick, rude people!
