There are 5 things that I'm glad about for the life of my grandfather before he recently passed away.
1) He got to visit Switzerland, UK, Saudi Arabia, Bali, some other parts of Europe and most parts of Malaysia.
2) Has a lot of children and grandchildren who took care of him when he was still alive.
3) He remembers all 50+ (children, grandchildren plus grandgrandchildren) of our birthdays as he wrote it all in a book he kept for decades.
4) A very generous man. He always give money to us whenever we visited him.
5) We were lucky to take a picture (see above) of our big family (but not all were inside) exactly 1 week before he passed away and that was when my sis got married. My grandparents were in the middle of the picture, sitting down on chairs.
And yes, he got to see my sis getting married the week before. That was such a relief.

Sudden Death
Went to religious class around 10.40am. While I'm in the religious class, my mum, dad and third sis, went to my grandfather's house to visit him as he was very sick. Then, after my religious class ends, my dad actually sent me an SMS saying that my third sis would picked me up and went to my grandfather's house. Upon seeing this, I had a bad feeling about this. And it was true. When I went to his house, I saw a lot of my family members crying. Then, I entered his room, and what I saw was shocking. My grandfather was dying. He was okay the day before, but now, he was trying to fight for his life. He could't speak. Its a sign of death. I started crying already. Soon, around 3.05pm, he passed away. My grandmother, who is always cheerful, cried. That was the first time that I saw her crying. That was when everyone started crying too. Some of my aunties and uncles were too late. One of my aunty was in fact around less than 5 minutes late after the death of my grandfather. To cut a long story short, my sis and bro who just went to Perth, are coming back to S'pore to observe the burial. They are lucky to have available seats. Tomorrow, err...I mean this morning, around 10am, I will be going to the graveyard to observe the burial. I'm gonna sleep first. So tired...

Home Alone
I'm alone at home right now...and its boring...very, very boring. My bro, my sis and her husband just flew off to Perth this morning (around 1.30am) to study and work there respectively. Haiz, so now, I have my second sis(who lives in another house), third sis (which will be flying off to Perth too), my mum and dad in Singapore. So, there's a big chance for me to actually go and study in Perth too after my GCE 'O' Levels (which I don't want). Hmmm, I'm not gonna think about the future. I'm only going to focus on what's present - secondary school. Yes, that's it.
Waiting till the end of this year to see if my family is going to have a trip to either South Africa or Australia. Can't wait!
PS: I'll post my sis's wedding pictures tomorrow or Monday.

Sick again :(
Slight fever, headache, sleepy and tired was what I felt today when I went to school. I think that it was caused by me, having been sleeping late all this while because of the preparation of my sis's wedding reception. Yeah...So, my dad fetched me from school around 11.30am. Then, sleep at home. That was when I realised that I wasn't the only one feeling tired and asleep - bcus all of my family members were sleeping. My second sis have a fever while others - headache. Lack of sleeping time I guess. Hahahahaha!!! Have to sleep early today, because I have to reach school tomorrow around 6.20am for NCC Day. ZzZzZzZzZ...

Murni's Wedding Reception
Woke up today around 6.30am. I was still sleepy then. Hahaha...Then, went to shower. After that, went to iron my clothes and got ready for the big event I was talking about - my sis's wedding reception. My dad, mum, murni(the one getting married) and her husband went to Bedok first to have their make-ups and clothes on before going to Mydin Mosque where they are to have their solemnization. So, my third sis, my bro, me and my aunts, uncles, friends and cousins went to take the bus which we hired. We took it at around 8.30am. Since, my second sis and her family couldn't make it in time(getting on the bus) because they woke up late, they decided to take taxi to Mydin Mosque. Then, around 9.15am, we reached Mydin Mosque, and prepared for the solemnization. Unfortunately, the 'tok kadi'(christians call them as 'priests') was late, we had to delay it for awhile. Around 9.45am, we officially started the solemnization. Took photos and more. It ended around 10.30am I guess. Took the bus and went to Bedok where the wedding reception takes place. The weather was very hot and humid I should say...yeah...its hell! Prepared everything there and those invited for this started to come. Majority came around 1-3pm. And yeah, I was everywhere, helping my siblings, friends and cousins with their work. Took a break by going to 7-Eleven and bought 'Slurpee' or just go and take a rest in my grandma's house which was just a stone throw's away. Took photos, had chat with people and get to know more of my brother-in-law's family. Exciting, happy, fun but hot, sweaty and tiring!!! But, its over now. Went home around 7.30pm. So damn tired lah. I've been sleeping late these days. Oh yes, I will try to post all the photos by the end of this week here...SLEEPY, sleepy, sleeeeeeppyyyy.....

Yeah...its true
Hahahahahahaha...I DO watch Family Guy. I just like to watch it. Oh ya, if you noticed that I've been doing tests and quizzes all this while was because I had nothing better to blog about and I'm bored. Hehe. But, I'll return to blog normally after my sister's marriage ceremony. Kk. Bb.

My Animated Show
Of course, you can get bummed out just like everyone else, but it won't be long until you find something else to smile about. Who cares where you get your high spirits? The most important thing is that you share 'em.

Me? A doctor?
I was bored, so I did this test...and the test said that I should be a doctor when I grow up, just as what my mum has hoped for since I'm in Sec 1. But, I don't want to think of being a doctor, not even becoming one. LOL.
