how shd i be feeling?
i spent the last mth scouring singapore for a present for my mother, which i finally found and cost me 2gs, only to have her reject it (ya duh, *unwrap* *look* *aiya .. another .." *puts back in box*) because she already has something frm the same brand and which she does not consider atas enuf. so much for confident decision making.
nvm, so off i go hoping to get a refund (fat hope i know). lo and behold my request was denied. upon finding out, she sits me down and reprimands me for having wasted so much money on something so pointless.
xmas sux. i dun blame her. she's the reason i can now afford this but still. fark my life.
like mother like son.

Nxt time, give ang pow.
I already gave up giving my parents gifts ... unless i can buy them an island to retire ... i can forget about it. Besides, they will always turn away the gifts anyway, so i expect the same for the island. As long as we safe, love them, good health.. thats all they want ah. They can give us.. but we cannot give them. LoL
same la ! haiya.. u should see the stuffs i got for my mum n dad man.. haha.. i doubt they even ever wore or used them once.
So cheer up dude.
Or give a kiss and a good hug and say I love you mum.
Is your mum a Christian????
And how old are you? Are you taking pocket money from your parents?
Wait for Santa to give your mum a present bah. =)
2Gs!!! man.... you must be elite or rich and such an ATAS mother... yah, indeed life must suck for you when I can't even have enuf to eat this christmas, skin and bones, rag and bone, collect newspaper and cans for my daily kopi-O kosong.
I personally hate christmas. It has become so boring to me this year and will also, I think, get more and more boring as I get older since the toys and gifts are no longer in abundance or mean nothing to me .
Xmas doesn't really infect me with all the hype and shoulder-knocking at places like Orchard. I'd rather stay at home and read a book or something like that.
TS, you don't have to be down simply because your mother rejected your gift. It can be saddening, to be rejected in such a blunt manner especially from a close relative (mother some more..), just go for something simple like bringing your mother out for dinner, and a simple hug and kiss like likeyou has suggested.
Cheers!
