Bringing my parents out for dinner for the first time

Yes... and it's not like it's anyone's birthday or anything. Although I told mum that she can take it as a early birthday celebration (her birthday in 1.5 mths time).

I think it's a combination of reasons:

1. I've been perpetuating a lot of negative energy in/around me so I figured I shall do something nice for my parents.
2. I guess also I've been feeling guilty that I go out and eat yummy stuff all the time while mum racks her brain over what to cook.
3. Mid year bonus has been credited so spend also won't feel that big a pinch. =P
4. BROTHER AND SIS ARE NOT HOME!!! Two less people to treat... hehe... (yes, cheapskate of me) Well, tried to contact my sis but she didn't respond. So too bad for her! hehe...

My mood felt infinitely better after mum agreed to go out. =)
