Don't ever use Xanga mann. Eventhough there's more stuff here but damn, you'll get fed up of it in a few weeks! Hah.

Toodles. Bye, Xanga. I'm so gonna miss you...

As of right now, what song relates to your life and why?

This was the featured question I got. Well, my answer has got to be Miley Cyrus's I Miss You. She wrote that about/for her grandfather. Realtes to me 'cause well, as you know, my grandfather just passed away about a week ago. The lyrics and all just suited it perfectly. Everytime I listen to that song it just reminds of my grandfather. I really really miss him. The chorus is the part I love most. Every word of it says it all. I miss him, I miss his smile, and I still shed a tear once in a while, eventhough it's different now but his is still here somehow, my heart won't let him go, and I need him to know that I miss him...

Anyways, had a farewell outing for one of my cousin who's leaving for US in a few days time. Just a cousins outing. It was so fun. Had Sakae Sushi for lunch. Fuhh, when bill came. Ohmai... Hahah. Watched Yes Man later. Whoa, full house mann. We were already at row F but there were still so many people in front of us. Movie was great. Really really funny. Laughed like mad hahah. Our sense of direction went missing today. Don't know what happened. Had our tea-time at OldTown. Stupid. Charged us so much for service tax when we had to wait super freaking long for the food. Pffft. Went to 'Lala Street' later in the evening to take pictures at DreamWorld. Surprisingly there was nobody at all. Hmm. Anyway, we took the largest booth we could find. Six of us altogether :)  It was so funny. We're all English educated people, so took photos fun laa. With all the lalila pose my cousin would say. Hahah. Decorating it was fun too, all of us were like gan cheong and we put all those 'decorate' each other in all those nonsense stuff. Pictures came out so tiny. Oh well, at least all of us have something to remember. Dinner after that with the rest of the family including Popo. Cheese crab was superb! Yumm...

Pictures another time. I better go sleep. Toodles. Night. loves.

First of all... Merry Christmas to my beloved Kongkong. Have fun wherever you are kayy? :)

And of course, Merry Christmas to everyone! :)

Didn't know this day would come so fast. Time do passed really fast eh? Just thinking about it... Kongkong was perfectly fine during his 87th birthday this year. He just deteriorated so quickly within these two months. And now he's gone. I still remember mommy and uncle brought grandparents back on my birthday. Why go so fast, Kong? It has just been 5months since your birthday. But oh well, it's okay laa. As long as you went so peacefully and you're happy :)  At least you're not suffering anymore. That matters. Love you! Merry X'mas Kongkong! be happy! I know you are :)  Feel like kissing you on the cheek right now. Missing you...

Oh, I remember seeing lights around the coffin you were in on the last night you were at the parlour. It was KaiYe who showed it to me and Lionnel. Although it was through a camera before snapping, but I'd much prefer to believe that you were spiritually there and there were devas in there :)

After Kongkong's cremation, we brought Popo out for dinner at Manhattan. Her favourite. I really hope she enjoyed.

me and the new renovated Manhattan.

me&Popo. She didn't know I was taking a picture. Hahah :)

Went to pick up Kongkong's ashes yesterday morning. Can't believe what I saw. All I saw were bones. Just bones and loose ashes in a box. I remember just before Kongkong was cremated, they put in his favourite shoes, favourite shirt&shorts, and a sarong into his coffin. I cried so so hard. My eldest cousin as well cause he was also very close to grandpa. After prayers, each one of us had to use a pair of chopsticks and put Kongkong's bones into the urn. I was holding my grandfather's bones can you believe it? My first time and it shall be in my heart forever :) 

me and cousins. otw to Melaka :)

Went back to Melaka after that to scatter Kongkong's ashes into the sea. Reverend Vijita was the one who scattered Kongkong's ashes while me and eldest cousin brother threw flowers. I always remember the story Kongkong used to tell me about... Kong, you remember? :) Next stop was SKE temple. Put Kongkong's urn at the third floor. It was windy/airy? Kong, your favourite spot kan? The balcony. You used to sit at your balcony every evening. So ok laa, all of us know you'll be happy there :)

My tough grandma :)

After vegetarian lunch, all of us went back to Kongkong & Popo's house. Ohmai... Old old memories flashing back. Was the first to touch Kongkong's lazy chair he used to sit and then was also the first to sit on the orange chair in front of the tv. (Kongkong was the last to sit on that orange chair) That incident was rather funny though. I'll leave it to my brother to tell if he wants to blog about it. Hahah. Oh well. Then later us cousins just sat on grandparents bed. Talking about Kongkong and just chit chatting among ourselves. It felt really nice. Somehow felt like Kongkong was just standing at the door watching us, smiling :)

i always picture you there

me in Kongkong's orange chair :)

me & my eldest cousin :)

me on Kongkong's bed :)

i inherited that :)

Popo brought out old picture albums to let us see. It felt really nice. Really. All family members sitting around each other looking at the pictures and just laughing 'cause of the olden days hair and pants. Hahah. It was funny. Saw Kongkong's old pictures too. When he was much younger, during his NZ scholarship days.

Kong, you looked really really handsome. No wonder Popo fell for you. keke. Kongkong has the prettiest handwriting too. Guess I got that genes from you, Kongkong. It's true, not boasting. Packed up after that then left the house. We'll be back again. I miss your presence Kongkong...

A song dedicated to you, Kongkong...

I miss you

Sha la la la la
Sha la la la la

You used to call me your angel
Said I was sent straight down from heaven
You'd hold me close in your arms
I love the way you felt so strong
I never wanted you to leave
I wanted you to stay here holding me

{Chorus}

I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
every once in awhile
And even though its different now
your still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you
Sha la la la la
I miss you

You used to call me your dreamer
and now I'm livin out my dream

Oh how I wish you could see
Everything thats happening for me
I'm thinking back on the past
It's true that time is flying by too fast

{Chorus}
I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
every once in awhile
And even though its different now
your still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you
Sha la la la la
I miss you

I know your in a better place (yea)
But I wish that I can see your face (oh)
I know your where you need to be
Even though its not here with me

{Chorus}x2
I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
every once in awhile
And even though its different now
your still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you
Sha la la la la
I miss you

I miss you
