Cheerful Family

Mini flashback of our conversation during our steamboat date! 

Elaine cant quite believe and understand that bsr and her family don't talk and communicate much during their meals and outings since Elaine's family isn't like that. 

Bsr's mum did all the talkings in family. This sounds rather familiar. I was partially laughing but her condition reminds me alot of mine too. Somehow similar but not exactly...

Awkward pairs of Lum Fam:

Me & eldest bro

Me & dad

other than that, it is fine. Attitude wise, 3 of us are the same. We talk but we don't talk that much at home.

Yesterday, during my lunch break, I was peacefully having my bak kut teh alone since my family wasn't around. Opposite of my seat, there was a cheerful family. Everyone was talking and chatting off happily. Sharing their daily life to one another. No awkwardness. There shouldn't be actually. What I like most is the daddy and mummy of that family were very cute. They did most of the talkings especially daddy in a very delightful manner. Not those typical strict fierce looking dad. I admire how they communicate. Spending a random Sunday like that is whole lot of joy. Can't directly jump into conclusion that they are a happy family but at least what I saw is the ideal way how I would picture a happy cozy family should be. 

Random admiring going on. Every family has its own way of communicating. As for mine, I don't think we are neither the worst nor the best. Now, I have gotten so used how the way I communicate to certain individuals even I myself find it hard to make a sudden change. 

Communication eliminates distance and barriers; But also creates unnecessary problems.
