Today is my first day of work after my long study break... Planned to do alot of work in the office but some time before 12, B smsed me to ask where am i... It appears that he wanna ask me out for lunch so i told him i'm at the office... He told me to take the day off n we will go somewhere far to eat... Of course i did so... Luckily boss allowed me to take an urgent half day... That's the advantage of becoming a part-timer bah? Lol...
Met him outside my company n we set off for our lunch... He started driving onto the expressway n so i asked him where is he kidnapping me to... It turns out that he haven decided which place yet... He thought of a place which sells yummy prawn noodles but when we got there, it wasn't opened! =( N so, we went to the nearby harbourfront... But harbourfront reli got limited choices, which after walking around, we decided on KFC... Lol... Funny how we always end up at KFC... The other time was when we went to the zoo, in which he thought that the restaurants in night safari will be opened in the noon... Silly him... =D
Had a long chat over our KFC lunch... About my studies, my future and his future... He is reli very concerned abt me, which made me happy... Cuz that may mean i reli meant sth to him... But well, we shan't talk abt that at this moment... =X But this nugget guy... I told him i lost weight le but he said dun have... When i insisted i reli did, he gave in by saying maybe my bones r heavy... Nugget de lo... I told him i will lose more weight n prove him wrong... Haha...
After lunch, we decided to walk around but harbourfront is pretty boring... So we left that place n we took a drive up to the oh-so-familiar mount faber... But it is not very interesting either, n so he suggested to go to the seaside at labrador park... I told him i haven been there since my primary school days, which was reli very long ago... Anyway, we reached there after a short while n was surprised to find a spa there... Such a ulu place with no publicity... Who will go? =X
N so, we started climbing the uphill slope to reach the so-called bridge that will lead to the seaside... I told him to slowly climb cuz i cnt carry him if he faint... Lol... But i guess we r reli a weird scene as he was in his office wear, meaning long-sleeved shirt, while i was in my usual jeans... We r definitely not in the right clothes to be strolling at labrador park under the scorching sun... To think we were juz complaining abt the heat entering the car through the windows several minutes ago... Now we r offering ourselves to the sun, to let it burn us thoroughly... =X N to our dismay, the bridge was already dismantled! Meaning we have to take the long footpath down... N so we did, taking the slow stroll n chatting abt lotsa things... Oh oh... We saw this couple whereby the guy is even more pro than him... Cuz that guy is not only wearing long-sleeved shirt, he is oso wearing a tie! Super pro de... B was already perspiring without the tie... I can feel it from his shirt... I cant imagine how that guy can bear with the heat... =X
After the slow stroll, with stops in between to look at the locations in which the cannons were placed during the war, we reached the seaside n stayed there for awhile... Den we made our way back up again... When we walked back to the car, we were dying of thirst... So we quickly made our way to a nearby 7-11 to get some drinks... N after driving around again, he sent me home so that i can get ready for my dinner with my swiss mates in the evening... Today he is reli very nice... Cuz normally we will juz bid goodbye in the car, with me going up by myself... But today, he actually offered to send me to my doorstep... Something is definitely wrong with him... Maybe he got a heatstroke or sth... But i reli appreciated it... =)
I ultimately enjoyed myself today... Especially the walk at labrador park... Though the weather was reli hot n i got some mosquito bites on my arms n legs, but it was reli fun... It is something worth remembering... Let's have more outings like this again k? =) Anyway, he left his job for another one with betta prospects... This means i wun see him appearing at my office randomly le... But i wun be sad cuz i noe he will be better off in the new workplace... N so, i will be real happy for him... Good luck to u... =)

May... It had been a very difficult month for me... Ushering into the brand new month, i lost someone whom i loved dearly... Grandma left me, left our family on the first day of May... It was sadness beyond description to see her lying motionlessly on the hospital bed... I was unable to stop myself from crying, where i sought consolation from my cousin whom gently told me not to cry... Somehow i understand that her departure represents the end of suffering for her... I dun wan her to suffer but it pained me to realise that i am not going to see her again...
Preparations for the funeral were attended to right in the evening, which my parents have decided to place it at the void deck of my house... N for me, i have to juggle between attending the wake n my revision time... Because i have to sit for a paper on that week and to my dismay, her cremation is on that day too... This means I am unable to send her off on the last journey of her life... I will not be able to witness the cremation, which pained me badly too... I wanted to go so badly, but my bro advised me not to go as i will definitely not be in exam condition after that... N so, all i hope now is that i will be able to pass that certain paper as a present for my grandma... To let her noe that despite my sorrows, i am still able to fight on for her... To let her noe that i will be a grandchild whom she will be proud of...
She had been taking care of me since the day i was borned... I picked up cantonese from her and remembered the times when she will bring me to my kindergarten and my primary school... Those were the years when she was still physically strong enough to handle me... But i haven been a good grandchild during my secondary school days as i guessed i was in the rebellious period n patience definitely isn't on the top of my list... N yet now, when i have matured into a better me, i am unable to shower my love n care for her... Maybe that is why we muz cherish the people around us because we will never noe when we r going to lose them...
Frens, please do learn how to cherish your loved ones... :)
