Episode: condolences
Wednesday, July 9, 2008

Was getting ready to go to school and do some work. I was to do some MM study since there would be a test tomorrow, some CRS, Communication device Rhino, get started on 50+ sketches and two major ones. One is the Muji consultation at 1, and the other is the History presentation which is due tomorrow. I also suppose to have GEMs in the afternoon.

But, my dad came to my room as I was getting ready to go to school, and break the news to me. My great grandmother had just passed away. I paused for sometime before I said some prayers. The last time I saw her was on a Saturday, I can't believe that she is gone. She has no sickness or any health problems. To me, she is the healthiest elderly I have ever known. She passed away in her sleep.


I changed and went to my grandma's house and was there to see her being covered up with a cloth. Soon, all my cousins came. I was there saying some prayers to her. I had to canceled the Muji, History and GEMs, as this was much more important now.

Then, I followed my cousins to the burial site. On the way back to my grandma's house, I had an interview on the phone regarding the 50+ workshop. The interview was from Warna ; Singapore Malay radio station. I answered her questions in Malay. I apologise for my Malay language, as I have not been sharpening on it. I can tell that she is frustrated when I go overboard with my answers. I am really sorry. She really need to edit it a lot.

Back at my grandma's house, we recited some more prayers. I was there until night. Soon, it was time to go home. I reached home at around 11. When I reach home, it was time to get back to work, and get back to the daily routine.

Dear great grandma, may god put you among those in heaven. I am going to miss you.
