It was a very trying Christmas period because my father aka Dadster was warded for a major surgery. I spent my leave week shuttling between Gleneagles Hospital and home which was physically and emotionally exhausting. Dadster has always been very headstrong and it was a 180 degrees turn to see him weak, tired and sick.

Dadster’s many friends and business partners heard about his hospitalization and sent us many fruit baskets. I was telling my Momster we should start selling these fruit baskets at MRT stations since we won’t be able to finish them. Of course she didn’t value my entrepreneurship spirit.

I told her I can do a very loud, “LE LONG LE LONG”. (Le long means sales)
