strength to push on..

i got a call from my mom last night.. she sounded a bit down, so i asked her whats up?

'i've got some bad news...'
'erm.. okay.. what is it?'
'you remember that pain i had in my leg when i went to see you in january?'
'yea? is it still there?'
'yea, i went to the doctor today since it was still there after almost a month.. had it x-ray'd and after much examination, he said that my leg is fractured..'
'oh.*stunned* is everything alright now?'
'well not quite, i'm going to see the doctor today to have it cast for about 6 weeks..
'oh.. *still stunned* you alright? '
'yea.. but its gonna be tough since i wont be able to move about so much.. i cant drive i guess..'
'i'm sure it'll be fine.. '

its been almost a month since she twisted her ankle and even with the pain, she pushed herself to follow my dad for his business trip in europe just so she could see me for 3 days in london.. even in that short time, the feeling was still .. i cant find a word for it.. but it just felt too short. i wanted to stay up and just talk to them both.. but i couldnt cus they were tired from all the travelling..

both of em have been pillars of strength whenever i was down. they believed in me when i was no where near from being a prodigy son that they had hoped for.. i am thankful for that.

hence, i will make ammends for all the slacking that have become habits. eventhough im still finding it hard shuffling work and studies. i will work thrice as hard and make quadruple the effort, to make sure that for all that they've worked for.. would not come to a waste.

mom and dad, you are the catalyst of my success. i will make you proud!!

i will bring good news when i get back home on the 3rd of june. :)
