i love you!

Dear,
these few weeks have been really exciting...
happy things, not so happy things
he left us all so suddenly, it was so unexpected
and it's in times like these that you realize that words can either cut you so deep you don't want to care anymore or it can give you hope.
hope to press on, hope that there are still people out there who really care
with their actions
and not with their empty meaningless
"are you ok?"
"be strong, Yi Wen".
last Christmas Eve, grandma went home to be with the Lord and less than 4 months later, grandpa left us too.
truth to be told, no one can really understand this sorrow
why?
because many don't really spend time with their grandparents.
well, for me...its a whole different story
they took care of me when i was young i still can remember
it seemed like not too long ago
they fetched me back from kindergarten in one of the best cars of that time
the Honda Civic...white, clean, new :)
i remember once grandma was mopping the floor and she told me not to run cause i would slip and fall
and knowing mischievious me, i did exactly the opposite
and yes, i fell flat on my butt!
i remember how everytime we'd go back to visit for Chinese New Year
grandma would cook up a storm and i miss her fried chicken.
they're the best!
grandpa, i'd miss the times you talk to me about life.
the lessons you've taught me
i will carry them on the tablet of my heart. i will.
i regret one thing...
i never told you two that i loved you.

i will be still and know that you are God.

age is just a number!

Grace,
for all the good times we've shared
for taking the time to listen to my "updates"
for always being there
for telling me the truth even when it hurts
for all the shopping, road-trips, stay-overs...
for being someone i can trust
for being you...
thank you!
XOXO

of sunshine and flutters

lunch under the sun. kebabs, cuz they're the best.
dinner with closest girls. and laughter, heaps of that.
last year was great. quiet, but with the right people, or so i thought.


it would be different. there would be no lunch kebab dates with u, people walk in and out of ur lives. that's alright, u left a footprint and of all the gin joints in all of the world, u walked into mine. u said that, i giggled.

this year would be different, not better, just different =D
