Oh well. Today is sunday again! Usually I'll call him around 12pm as US is 12 hrs earlier than us. So 12am will be the timing that he finished bathing after work. Yea, he finished work very late everyday like 10-11pm.. :( And he only get one day off every week..
So today our topic was around my coming 3 months overseas attachment in Thailand. Remember when I first told him I've decided to go Thailand for overseas attachment, he said yes and gave permission immediately after he asked whether I've think about it properly or not. Haha! Not that he don't care at all but was because he always trust me 100% and support my decision no matter what. (Hmm that's how I learned to be responsible on my own decisions!)
Although I can tell that he is a bit worried about the safety there, but he never try to convince me to not go for it. Instead, he told me it will be a great experience and asked me to learn as much as I can. Subsequently, he became less and less worry as I told him more details about the trip. Dad, I promised I'll take good care of myself there! :)
Now, my trip is considered 'confirm' but we still waiting for the official confirmation letter from them. Then only we can apply for visa, buy air ticket etc. My beloved dad has started to worry about my expenses there. Actually I've told him the monthly pocket money that he gave me would be enough to cover my expenses over there as accommodation is provided by the company. But today he told me he decided to give me extra SGD 500 for the trip. I SAID I DON'T WANT because one of the reasons I choose Thai was because the expenses there is relatively cheaper compared to Aus or US. I believe the pocket money he gave and my savings would be more than enough to cover the expenses in Thai. I just don't want to increase his burden anymore. However, he INSISTED no matter what I said. He said: "just eat whatever u feel like eating, buy whatever u feel like buying.. Don't live frugally and save money excessively.. " So in the end I have no choice but to say yes.
I am a bit spoilt by my dad but luckily I am not those who will spend money on unnecessary things. Hahahaha of course sometimes I love shopping as any other girls out there too!! I will definitely control myself to not spend too much there on shopping although all the clothing and stuffs there are CHEAPPPPPP!!! "CHEAP DOESN'T MEANT YOU HAVE TO BUY IT!" Bear this in mind MUNEE!! I will only use that 500 bucks during emergency situations. *promised myself*
From this post, u might get some ideas why my dad is my hero all along. He is such an awesome dad not because how much money he gave me but the love & trust! ^^
