Joel's dad

I wore my AC uniform for the first time today.. It felt oversized! Like I mentioned in an earlier blog entry, the blouse (though smallest available size) was just huge.

Physical geography lecture seems to be the most enjoyable out of all the lectures I'm attending... The DM is our lecturer. It's a good and bad thing cos' he's LAME, humorous, and everyone laughs throughout the whole lecture! His geog notes rock too, more detailed than SR's, looks more professional too =D


I met up with Denise (Chia) before heading down for the funeral wake..

The memorial service for the late uncle R at Toa Payoh. I didn't expect myself to cry.. when uncle Joseph and Joel gave their eulogies, I just couldn't take it. I thought of how Joel has to cope without any parents or siblings, how uncle R and my dad were good friends and he'd always be so bright and cheery, how my parents said he had a pet shop at home (Joel said it was a jungle)... for those who have been to my house, I think they would have noticed the pond in the balcony. If not for uncle R, the pond wouldn't be there. He was so generous. He knew that my dad has this weird interest in fishes and he gave my pa the big black container which was then transformed into a pond with koi fishes (picture will be up another time). He also gave us this fake tortoise for decorative purposes which is currently residing in one of the fish tanks at home.

It's like a fragment of uncle R will always remain in my house. It is difficult to accept the fact that he's gone, he has left us to be with our Daddy above. At least we know he is now safe in heaven, void of all pain and suffering.

I feel like some emo freak but I'm not la ok. Lol.
