woke up at 7am this morning.. and got really FRUSTRATED with my brother.. he slept and 4plus.. didnt really sleep BUT only toss and turn.. yet, he wants to get out of bed to go shao-mu with mom and me.. and another reason was most probably Aunty Shumsia (小舅's maid) will tag along.. and the car will be full, how to sit so many people? and i was so ANGRY trying to persuade him till i SURRENDERED myself and decided to go back to bed.. since he love to shao-mu so much, i shall give my chance to him and i'll go to bed.. but, mom came to talk to me nicely, persuading me to go shower and let didi join us.. mom kept emphasising that i'm the one who promised 阿公 that i will accompany him to go 拜太公 so it's a promise.. and i shall keep that promise..
well, people who know me well knows that i hate people who break promises.. so i must prove it by being a good role model.. and indeed, i woke up and went to shower.. 小舅came to fetch us at about 8.10am.. my guess was right.. Aunty Shumsia did tag along with 阿公.. and we have to SQUEEZE four people at the back because of my brother.. along the way there, traffic wasnt that smooth.. maybe because it's peak hours so we're meeting with those who are reaching to work.. 太公 is buried at “咖啡山”(in hokkien).. it's beside the old Police academy.. heard from mom, it's a private property area.. many people used to bury there when there isnt any CCK cemetry area.. heard from mom that not even Ah Ma herself has seen before 太公.. cause 太公 has passed away when 阿公is only 18years old.. so now that 阿公 is 78, in other words, 太公has passed away for 60years..
well, mom and i are still in the task of persuading 阿公 to move 太公's remains and cremate it to put it at where Ah ma's remains are now.. it will definitely be easily for him and us to go and offer our greetings.. just hope this can be done before 阿公's condition of dementia gets worse.. upon reaching there, 小舅park the car at the side of the old police academy.. and we got down and walked to towards “咖啡山”.. it's my FIRST time walking by the side of the expressway.. how COOL it is... hahaz! but can be quite dangerous too! the path to the tomb was muddy and the area nearby has already been covered up due to landslide after heavy downpour.. think sooner or lately, the area where 太公's remains are buried will be chased by the government for them to upgrade the area..
so it's more or less a no choice thing that we must get people to dig out 太公's remains and cremate it.. had a HARD time looking for 太公's tomb.. we thought after a year not coming to clear the grasses, it should be already and who knows, my granduncle had came for offerings already.. well, the condition of the cemetry was far better of what i imagine.. but i wouldnt want to go there after a heavy downpour.. after shao-mu-ing, we went for breakfast at Braddell.. 小舅brought us to have Niang Dou Fu and mom treated us to duck meat.. after that, 小舅 drove us home and didi went to 阿公's place before meeting Xiang Wei to go back to their secondary school..
mom and i went home to shower and rest awhile.. then we decided to go to Amk Hub for a walk.. didi craves for the durian dessert sold there and highly recommended by the tv.. went there.. mom was kind of disappointed that the shopping mall isnt any better.. maybe because many shops belong more to young shoppers like me.. eyed on a blouse at Dano.. but was too expensive in terms of the cloth used.. and tried on others.. finally.. decided to get this blouse instead..
it cost me 23bucks.. it's purple colour actually..it's a 2pieces blouse, with a free necklace.. kind of worthy.. had our lunch cum early dinner at Mos Burger.. super DISAPPOINTED with the standard of the food at this outlet.. well, end up, didnt even feel that i have taken in food.. brought didi some durian mochi, durian cake and i got myself mango pudding.. shopping trip today- FAILED! didnt get a schoolbag which i wanted to.. and didnt get the blouse i eyed on.. 53bucks! too expensive.. and mom didnt get the pair of shoes she wanted to either..
headed home and went to bed.. too TIRED after waking up so EARLY.. having a headache after waking up and feels a bit giddy too! think i have been thinking too much about the testimony sharing i'm tasked on, the red cross training and my year 2! ONE more WEEK back to HELL!
P.S. HAPPY BIRTHDAY XIANGWEI! =]
