Yesterday, I went out for a special occasion with my friends. It was sort of a celebratory party for my team's victory in the recent competition I mentioned before but we killed two birds with one stone by having it with other close friends, turning it into a social outing. We had a good mix of people, apart from the usual gang, we had other people whom we were meeting for the first time. It was definitely different from the typical outings with the same group of people. To top it of, it wasn't just hanging out idling our time in a mall or going for a movie, which we did after lunch, it was having a buffet lunch! Not just any buffet lunch, but a JAPANESE BUFFET LUNCH!! Yes, lunch! or brunch actually. "Who eats japanese buffet for lunch?,"my dad queerly asked me. But he didn't stop me from going and even gave me the money to pay for my share.
At this juncture, I'd like to add something that came to my mind. I feel blessed because we kids are privileged enough to afford this lavish and definitely not cheap buffet, being soaked into all the fun with no qualms of eating this sort of expensive food throughout lunch, all thanks to our parents. Dear urban kids, we should never boast about these luxury no matter how grown up we look or how grand we feel at that moment, unzipping our wallets to pay the enormous bill without any fuss, as we are undeserving. We have the spending ability and the freedom to own and do many things, but please bear in mind to always be grateful to our parents who worked their way from zero and through tough times to provide our every need and pave a way free from obstacles so that we children don't have to experience what they had.
Thanks mum and dad for everything. <3
