The days gone by...

It has been a long time since I last stepped into the Post Office.

I rmb I used to sell things over YahOo auctions and I will go there to post the stuffs. I also rmb going to the PO to buy Postpac boxes to wrap odd shaped gifts for my friends. And the last time I stepped into the PO, I was there with 100 envelopes, 100 sheets of survey form and 100 stamps...

But I went to the PO with rong today.
Those did not come to my mind.
What came to my mind was how my parents actually had to go queue, ask how to send 14kg of stuffs to me in Oslo.

Although my mum managed to get the postman to collect it at our house,the thought of them going to the PO for me is still very comforting.
That was the time I really really missed home.
That was the time I really knew how fortunate I had been all these years.
That was the time I really realised how much I love them and enjoyed their company.

When I received the box, I called it the Box of Love.
It had the smell of my house.
My mum sent me curtains, she sent me my Princess, she sent me lemon puffs, canned food...so many many things I took for granted in Singapore.
And I rmb pple coming up to my room to see the Box of Love.
And it made me realise how well my mum knows me and how well I know her.
How I like my things to be packed and how she packs her things.
It just makes us rmb all the fundamentals of our kinship.
And it just made me love them more than ever.

In fact, we would go to anybody's room whenever their parents send them Boxes of Love.
I rmb Breadie's mummy sending her 2 boxes....
That was sooooo sweetttt...........

And these were the days gone by......
