I decided that I better make some clarification before people start bombing me with dreadful questions and saying negative stuffs about me.
For the non Chinese educated, the surname 王 can be Wang, Ong, Wong, Heng or Ng depending on what is your dialect.
Apparently I'm saying I'm not an Ong not because my surname is not 王, but because instead of following the family to be Ong I'm a Wang.
And there's several reasons why I'm awfully happy and glad that I'm not an Ong (which makes me sound like not part of the family).
FIRST and FOREMOST, I'm not in good terms with my dad.
He and mummy already separated for years and he had uncountable number of affairs, the more notorious one will be his current affair where he would spend his money on that woman's children rather than my brother (who is his own FLESH AND BLOOD).
Not to forget he actually quarrelled with my uncle over this old slut. Oh dramamana. (Apparently I heard that for the sake of this woman my dad and my uncle don't talk anymore. Anyone got the real insider info to feed me?)
If not because i'm already married I actually had the intention to change my surname to follow my mum's but then again, no point changing cos people will still address me as AC or Candy. Plus my current marrital status sooner or later people will just address me as Mrs Tay. (That sounds totally OLD! Me shall still make people call me Candy until I'm comfortable with Mrs Tay.)
And sadly, mummy disapproved this idea of changing my surname.
Yeah some of you people might start saying negative stuffs like "even so he's still your dad", "you're awfully wicked to be so disrespectful to your father" and etc.
Worst is to hear those f*cking people saying "you'll have your retribution".
But right in the first place, were you people around when he beat me and kicked me and hold a knife and tried to kill me and said he want to disown me?
NONE. None of you outsiders are there to witness anything.
So shut your traps if you think you're in the correct position to talk. And retribution? I think you Fact-turners should get your dose of retribution first.
And to be honest, I'm not in close terms with my paternal relatives.
The older cousins are having age gap of 10 years and above, and the younger ones are in seconday school now.
And those around my age are all BOYS. To be truthful for once, how many people will be real damn close to your cousin of the opposite sex who are of around the same age?
Not many right?
And seriously, no doubt that I never dislike any of my cousins, I always feel that my cousins dislike me.
The elder ones will probably think that because I'm a crybaby when I was young so I'm irritating. And when my parents separated all think I'm siding my mum to oppose my dad is very very wicked (one even called my mummy an old wicked witch and me the young evil wicked witch) so they might dislike me even further.
And oh, one major important thing that contributes to the reason why I think they don't like me.
Cos I don't gamble much except blackjack and I don't know mahjong. My paternal elder cousins are all queens of mahjong.
Don't bother asking me to learn cos even if I master it I doubt I even want to play with them to suffer those sacarstic remarks like me being late bloomer, my mahjong skills are bad etc etc.
The younger female ones? They will probably think that I'm some cheapo who don't carry labels and always wear cheap clothes. Plus I seldom mingle with them so less communication = less understanding and hence = not close.
And oh did I mention my younger male cousins are a bunch of mahjong freaks too?
Uncles and aunties wise is even worst. Because they're the elders I respect them, but I'm close with none of them.
Did I even leave out an important event?
Once my dad got his siblings to come over and confront mummy and my uncles and aunts came. The way they claim to solve our family problem is NOT to allow my mum to have her dinner and insisted for some stupid solution, making her fainted at home. I was begging and pleading them to allow mummy to go for dinner but they refused. When I shouted at them asking them to let go of my mum and allow her to eat they even scold me for being disrespectful and rude to them.
PLEASE LOR!!! Who are the ones starving my mum when she got bad gastric problem and refused to allow her to have dinner until late at night! And my late is after midnight! Disrespectful? You who scold me disrespectful is my 5th uncle's wife. My dad is the 3rd son and that makes my mum YOUR elder sister in law. Who is the disrespectful one you tell me?
Oh what a drama family I have. Tons of drama enough to be scripted into a show. *whatever*
To be honest, I'm very comfortable being different surname with the rest of my paternal cousins.
That only shows how different I am from them.
And apparently, some irritating people left a comment in my facebook that I just need to show my IC instead of a picture of my late grandma's obituary.
I didn't know nowadays IC are so advanced that they'll include the names of your extended family to show how similar/different you are from them.
Obviously I'm showing my grandma's obituary is to show that even though I'm born in the Ong family, I don't carry the surname Ong.
So next time. Don't try to be clever when you know you're not because you can't read my mind.
You know you hate me,
XOXO
