Recap
It’s been awhile…. Emotions have been flying all over since my grandma’s demise. The week seemed rather long. The days and night seemed to overlap each other to a point where you just don’t know which day is it and what time is it anymore.Coming back to work on Monday was difficult. Sleep deprivation through the wake was tough. Mentally and physically drained and emails was still piling since last week. Had lots to clear and a project plan to come up with.
It’s Tuesday today, a week since it all happened. It still seemed abit unreal. I still miss her really. I wonder with her departure, when will our next family gathering be. I always enjoy gatherings at my grandma’s. With all the kids around and everybody else having a good time, it’s always enjoyable.
My grandma’s demise brought everyone together this time. Perhaps for the last, perhaps not, I’m not sure. But I can’t help feeling that it’s somehow sad to see that people it takes such sad occasion to have everyone together again. You see for so many years, I’ve never managed to catch many of my cousins with my nieces or nephews during Chinese New Year. I found that I could barely recognize them, not to even mention knowing their names.
I know the irony is that people would rather share happiness than share sadness, but in this case, I wonder if it was a good cause for a gathering to begin with. Contradicting? I know.
So, I caught up with a lot of my cousins. Some getting married, some still contented being single and some, still searching for love. Somehow we have all grown up through the years from the irritating, screeching rascals, always so noisy.....to working class adults.*tadah*
Ha! It was funny reminiscing the past when we were all carefree little rascals just trying to have a good time! We would always gather at my grandma’s at weekends, make a hell lot of noise and refusing to go home when time is up because we were all so hyped up with the company that going home was definitely not the first choice of the night. I miss those carefree days…*ahhhh…* those were the days….
*Snap*
Back to reality, we all have different paths in our lives now pursuing different goals. We exchanged thoughts about our work, the world, relationships and whatever we thought of to update each other. It was nice…..
And when we ran out of topics to burn, we actually stumbled upon blogging…sheesh…blogging is definitely the IN thing right now. Anyways, my cousins asked for my blog URL. I gave it some thoughts and decided…”Nah”. I like to write freely where I know no one would “feel” for my writing. It’s better this way. So I got their URL instead and added more blogs for my reading leisure. It’s more interesting to read than writing about my mundane life really. Muahahaha…I’m complex and boring rememember?
*bleh*
