FAMILY

Money indeed makes the world go around. Even in the family, it makes them closer than ever. One would wonder why, but then it has its evil.

I really question it why my family on the Lim side look down on us. My father mentions that the root cause is money...or the lack of it. We are poor. That is true. However, isn't it that we are the one who needed the assistance more? Yet, as simple as a phone call (or how to contact the embassy) they wouldn't even help us. At least we could have inquired regarding our SSN in order for us to be less of a burden to them. Yet, they continue to be selfish. They only look at the benefit we give them. They benefit because we get to cook for them, we get to clean the house for them, and I get to tutor their kids. Hurray! Yey! Bleh! Choking here! They are soooo... oh I can't fit the right words for them. Just this morning, the bitch of grandmother is talking about my actions of "sitting in front of a TV" and not helping in the kitchen. Bullshit! She can see me, but she can't see my aunt's daughters who are not helping as well. I mean, the other one glued her nose in the computer for most of the 24 hours of the day. She hardly sleeps! Now, who is wasting energy? The other one too, well she hardly cleans the place. Yesterday, my aunt told her that we have to clean the "oval office". My leg hurt from our long walk the night before. But I have to clean it anyhow. I ask her to help me, but she is unwilling. I have to tell her over and over again before she help me. Moreover, she sleeps most of the day too. She didn't do any work. Granted she cooks, but Papa cooks for the main meal. She gets to do that when he isn't here to do that for her, or if she wants to eat. I didn't get to see her complain about their habits. She is fine with whatever they do...as long as it wasn't me doing that. The Bitch complains about my mom's laundry, when she said that we could do that once a week. She doesn't want us to change clothes. She is abusing our helplessness. They are all abusing our helplessness! They are taking advantage of us. Opportunist!
