About the Author
At the first cutting light of August, many years ago, the world got the first glimpse of the entity known henceforth as
Leon Yip. It decided to douse the aforesaid with sunshine, sweets, and loads of love.
Legend has it, so convicting were his words, that upon his request, the world agreed to revolve around him, forever, and ever, and ever.

You know the funny thing about tradition? I have one which I'm looking to uphold. One which I tried to continue before, failed, but now, if I steady myself, be at my best, I know I can make it. Yay me.
I wish so much to follow in the footsteps of my two brothers. Now I can.
Hope I get it right.
My mom's birthday dinner was definitely one of the top family dinners I had so far. Really love the four jokers that I live with. And I know they love me. Yay us. Chilli crab was really the killer. I got full from drinking Green Tea (to neutralise the spice). Where did we eat? No place but the legendary UDMC (don't know what it stands for, but its how we refer to it) is good enough for my mommy on her special day of course! Seafood galore.
This precious family dinner again pricked me where it hurt. This time, worst than ever. I just looked around the round table, and I realise that the circle wasn't closed. Its' up to me to close it. I guess that explains for alot eh.
Not that I feel bad or anything, (goodness knows that how I feel about myself) but sometimes, its just hard to be the one left behind. Which perhaps explains my verbal diarrhoea which I should apologise to my second brother (maybe 10 years later) about.
Maybe its time to close the circle. Because, like how Robbie Keane may be great, Steven Gerard is perfection, 7 may be great, but 8 is perfect.
Don't walk in, I'll come out.
