Hungry Ghost Festival

Today is the 1st day of the hungry ghost festival and as usual, my family went down to the void deck area to pray and burn some incense. I became very emotional as i prayed for my family and results. Of course in my case, i hope i would do well in A lvl. For dad, i prayed for his health, as his health condition has deteriorated much lately. The stressful working environment has taken a toll on him. Every now and then, he would return home to remind me of the need to study hard because life has become very harsh on him. I would however, became very frustrated because of his constant nagging. But i knew they are important in reminding me of the goals that i have to achieve. I began to worry for his health, as he had high blood pressure and had ignored medication for quite some time. His appearance reminds me of a frail old man, coupled with deep wrinkles and white hair. His eyes have also become waterly and blood-shot lately. Somehow, i began to have a morbid thought that my dad would..leave me suddenly. I dunnoe how to put it by time is running out, i must work hard to give him and my mum a good life they deserved.

Didn't get any rest lately because my current lifestyle is that i would sleep from evening till 8pm, then mug until the next morning at 3am. I would then sleep from 3am to 6am, sounds crazy but i think it is meaningful as i really get to do some solid self revision on my own.
