At The Hospital....

Don't be alarmed, I'm at the hospital right now, but I am not the patient.  Its the mother-in-law.  Actually she checked herself in about a week ago to discover that she has stomach ulcers.

Well, that's what she thought, but its not the case, actually, we don't know what the problem is, so she have been at the hospital this week having various checks made on her.

Its kind of strange, she seems alright, considering she makes a trip back home everyday by herself (the hospital is just around the corner), so we're all stumped on what's actually wrong with her.

I'm at the hospital now, hoping that she goes to sleep.  She made several calls tonight back home saying she is scared since the person in the next bed has checked out of the hospital.  Not sure what she is scared off, its a hospital at the end of the day...maybe she has done something bad, so is afraid to sleep on her own.

The thing is what annoys me is I am doing this out of charity. OK, OK, she's my mother-in-law and I should show that I care, but for those who know me and the current "family" life I have with the in-laws, well...need I say more?

What gets me is the sister-in-law, always making up damn excuses and thinking she is the poor relation.  For Jesus H. Christ, this is your mother!  Can't she even come and spend a couple of hours with her owm mother?  I know she is not the best mother in the whole world, but still blood relative.  Why can't she even do some things for her own mother?

She is such a selfish person and complains too much (this is coming from me, who can complain for Britain), and I don't know what she has to complain.  She has a job which pays reasonbly, and out of her pay, she doesn't contribute to the housing and food bills, so she basically keeps all her money to herself.  She's lazy too.  Every weekend, its me who goes and buy the lunch and dinner.  She just sits there and waits for the food to be delivered.  I don't even know what to say anymore.  She just...argh...I don't know.  Just tired...

And now, because of her lack of compassion for her own mother, I am now here at the hospital listening the mother-in-law's speeches....sigh.  People think I'm samaritan, but I'm not to be honest, I am just as selfish as the next person, but still, is it really that difficult to be nice to one another and show a bit of compassion?

Its been a while since I wrote anything on here...had a lot of things to deal with and think about.  I try not to put negative stuff on here as much as possible, but, such as life.  Sorry for making my post a bit crappy.  I hope it gets better soon.

Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and have a great start to the New Year.

Cheers!

Homeward Bound (For 2 Weeks)

We're setting off later this evening to UK for a couple of weeks. Can't wait to see Manchester and Ashton-under-Lyne again, not to mention to catch with friends and family and of course do a bit of driving! I haven't been driving for more than a year now since I have been in Taiwan, feels like my legs have gone! We're taking a lot pineapple cakes, which Taiwan is famous for, back to friends and family in UK, and some other gifts too. On the way back, we'll bring back all sorts of stuff to Taiwan, so another post on that when I get back. Not sure whether I'll be able to get online as often, but will try my best to keep my blog updated as much as possible while I am over in UK. My grand parents also arrived in UK from Hong Kong to attend my brother Jimmy's wedding. So time would probably be spent travelling around and take to places to see and have fun. Don't worry, as always, I'll be taking pictures! It will be Amelie's first time visit to UK...

Goodbye P-100

I'm just going to upload the last ever set of photos from our loyal Sony P-100. I will update this post tomorrow. Yup, the Sony P-100 is a gonna. It ain't gonna rise from the ashes, this time... For now here are some photos taken today around Taipei using the Sony P-100 before the evening's accident, which involved Chien-yu, her foot and the hard marble floor we have in our room. We now got a good excuse to get a new, better digital camera. Its going to have to be a Sony one though, because I invested in a 1GB memory stick. Need to make use of that as much as I can! Sigh, money, money and more money.

Superman Snappy

Snap the man of steel and score points! My first attempt, I got 82. This will just have to do until I get a new camera.
