just the calculation of number of stages took up the whole day yesterday. design project is only 4 AUs, is it worth sacrificing my weekends? boo...
and thinking of encouraging ourselves, we went to pan pacific orchard for buffet. but the spread of food was not satisfying. the ambience of the place was quite nice though.
regret that we didn't take photos of the other buffet on wednesday. though we probably would look very smoky and oily. haha
didn't manage to talk to my parents much these few days, cause of the late hours i've been staying in school. today they've gone on a short kelong trip, and they'll be back tomorrow. i know that my mum would love for me to go, cause she repeatedly kept asking me along. but i really have too much to do. though i would've gone if i could, i cant help but feel a tinge of guilt.
本来有一些些反感，干吗为了仙人掌开花这种小事，一直要我拍照？但还是在上学前照做了。后来发现妈还特别要求同事来帮忙拍照，才意识到原来几张照片对爸的意义多大。爸也尽量不要让我觉得厌烦，只是留了字条提醒我拍照，也没有每晚追问。他这样简单的愿望也花不了多少时间，我怎么做不到？
幸运的，昨晚回家时，去了后院看看，拍到了第一朵盛开的花。 而今天再去看时，那朵已经开始枯萎了。明白了有些时候，该做的事，就应该去做。否则会后悔。 对父母的那片孝心也应该如此。
below are the more professional photos from mum's colleague.
disclaimer: the cactus is not taller than a HDB flat. its the angle. =_=
the 3 stages of that solitary blooming flower.
