Yet another funeral.
Its my Grandma this time; left us during the wee hours of tues.
Due to her unfaltering 40+ years of smoking, she was diagnosed with lung cancer 2mths ago. 2mths later, the cancer overwhelmed her.
How indifferent can i be? Thou she's my Grandma, i dun quite know her well. Maybe becoz of my lousy ability of speaking dialect. But even then, i still cant escape a tinge of sadness. Shd hav taken the effort to know her better, to recepocriate the love. Oh but, its too late now.
Now im left with 1 last Grandma.

Whatta nice book, by Mitch Albom! Talks about the great philosophies of life under the pretext of a true-life story, which is indeed touching. And lol, when my uncle went to my grandma's wake, he coincidently talked about some ren shen da dao li that happened to be in the book! Must also thank Sichuan for lending me!
and haha, what can be funnier when u are chanting scriptures in a wake, then halfway ur phone rang loudly? xD
Mandai Crematorium looks soooo high class! Big difference frm the one in Mt Vernon last time. The design's so modern and classy, dun rlly look like one. Pity i left my phone in the car, so no pics. Blah.
Alright, its mother's day tmr. And that cactus which i supposedly asked frm Teng is gone. Great. But no fret, mum's not gunna be disappointed! =P
