heart and mind, a moment together.

Im suppose to chiong ITI journals now, but still have to read some article that ezzat has convinced me to be interesting. guess i blog abit to get my mind working on the early morning. oh and it's 930am now. it's irritating how my blog's timing is always wrong. it's behind time for like 15hours. /:

i was walking home with dinner yesterday when i saw this scene.

at the cake shop: a daddy was holding two children, they were chinese speaking. they don't look like they had a lot of education. they don't look very rich. the children, both boys were about 7,8 years of age. daddy was talking to the cake shop keeper, i heard him ask 'how much?'

the shopkeeper says 'ten dollars, eighty cents.'

when i turned to look they were all staring at the small chocolate cake in the display. and one of the boys, the older one i think, was tugging at daddy's hand.

daddy asked him 'you want is it?' (in chinese).

then the next thing i heard was, 'er, okay la, i buy.'

it just got me thinking as to how many times this would have happened in a child's life. as a child grows up. how parents or grandparents would throw away money just to make their kids smile.

it reminded me of, popo.

i remember when i was a little girl, popo took me out to westmall to walk around. i was feeling cold and i told her about it. we weren't really doing anything, just shopping for a few stuff.

then she brought me into tom & stephanie, and to the jackets section. a blue jacket caught my eye, and she noticed. she bought it down for me without thinking much. i remember it was twenty odd bucks.

and just because, i was cold.

the stupid thing is that i no longer wear that jacket anymore. it's too small for me. but everytime i think back,

popo just loves me too much.

it doesn't take a psychology student to think and encounter various emotional incidents portraying human behavior between relationships. even a cake shop aunty might see this everyday.

if i were a cake shop aunty and i see this everyday, would i get numbed to it? or would i still think so much? haha.

mmm.
