again to chinese drama serials... Its been a long time since I followed one. When I was pregnant with Ilyas, it was the korean dramas. Anyway, the Little Nyonya caught my eye cause of the setting... I've been quite interested in nyonya culture since the drama series Sayang Sayang. A year before I had visited a baba nyonya museum in Malacca. It was actually the house of a rich baba but they had turned it into a museum in its full glory. It was awesome. Anyway, story is about this young nyonya and how she was ill treated by her family. It just set me thinking, these stories of good, kind people who are always being bullied( cinderella kind of story ), will they ever get out of that life? As long as they remain good hearted and kind, they will always be treated like that. Leave it to fate.. and look at the development of the story so far.. 3 generations of women having to 'accept their fate' and 'bear with it'. Its like, having some kind of intelligence and courage to get out of that life is a big sin. I just can't put in words what i'm trying to drive at.. haiya!
Anyway, apart from watching the drama, i've been staying home most of the time, playing with Ilyas. Making the most of the few days i have left before going back to school and before sending him to infant care next week. Sending Ilyas to Republic Poly's Learning Vision. Hope he'll be able to adapt.
