This is my Papa.

Everyone says I look like a female version of my dad. Unfortunately for me, that means having a really round face. :P When I was young, I used to laugh at my papa's receding hairline to which he retorted, "Don't laugh, wait till your turn!" to which I brushed off with more jokes about his shiny head. At 23, I think I'm balding. :( My papa has very strong genes.

Now, his looks are not all I inherited. I inherited his stubborness and his quick temper which is the root of all our squabbles when I was an angsty teen. I inherited his impatience, where I'd get annoyed at people for being slow just as he would when he thinks I'm being slow. I also inherited his blatant gross sense of humour which I am proud of. This is the man who is responsible for all the poop talk and weird uncensored thoughts I have and I love him for it. And for those of you who question why I'm so short, I also inherited his height. -___-

Ever since I could remember, my dad has been my hero. This is the man that used to spend hours with me at the Barbie Doll section in Toy'r'us to pick a doll I want. This is the man who always bought me ice cream when my mother said no. This is the man who created a bedtime story for me when I couldn't sleep. This is the man who bathe me in smelly Pinetasol liquid when I had Chicken Pox. This is the man who filed my nails and stroked my head till I go to sleep.

And at 23, this man would still fly kites with me. He'd buy me silly knick knacks from the pasar malam. He bought me a strawberry document file for university. He'd buy me my favourite kuih from the makcik stall nearby. He never lets me drive because he claims my driving makes his balls shrink (his exact words). He rescues me from flat tires and lizards. He took me to all my job interviews. :P And he still buys me ice cream. :D

This is the man who gave me everything I have today. I have no words to describe how lucky I feel.

Today, I found out that he has a picture of me as a wallpaper on his phone.
