Parents and Children

Today while I was on the way back from the church, my friends and I were discussing about our parents and our friends' parents. The whole topic just started with one of my friends was trying to search for someone's blog.

Apparently, he didn't manage to find the blog, or to say the blog was no longer in operation. but surprisingly, he found the friend's father's blog! then we started the topic discussing about how advanced our parents have become.

we came to realize our some of our friends' parents own blogs (very active that type, either father or mother), facebook (one of the parents has two accounts! just to play Mafia wars), and twitter!

and we came to one finding, that is normally these "advanced" parents are "complained" by their children to be "more updated" than the chidren themselves! imagine that, children can't keep up with their parents! :D

haha....so, our final statement was :" sigh...Parents nowadays!" hehe....i hope my mom don't get to see this though.... :P

p/s: special dedication to the parents! hehe...we know you are trying to get into our lives and involved with our friends. thank you for the effort! we really appreciate that, and in a way, i hope my mom can be like that too...hehe...

yeah, it is really interesting. Like you said. I wish my parents can do the same thing. Sometimes, maybe...like us, our parents can open up more in their thoughts through blogging.it's a way to know them better :)

My parents don't blog, don't do Facebook and don't tweet! And that's just well, cos I don't really want them to read my blog and my Facebook and my tweets. Haha!

Out Of Topic : Regarding your question how much I spent for my China trip - I spent about RM2K in total (inclusive of AirAsia RM570 KL-Guilin-KL flights).

But you may have to spend much more if you don't intend to stay in backpackers hostels : )
