Yesterday, I went to Singapore General Hospital to visit my grandfather who was admitted last Thursday. Mum only told me about it when I came back from Berkelah on Sunday. Guess she didn't want to spoil my holiday mood when she called me on Thursday. He was so frail and weak. Don't even have much strength to talk even. Grandma was right beside him, attending to his needs. The moment I saw the image of two old people taking care of one another, something struck my heartstrings.
My childhood memories with Grandpa was that I remembered sitting on his lap and trying to control the steering wheel of his taxi. I remembered sitting in his favorite corner, together with my cousins and watching him smoke opium. I actually liked the smell of opium.
Grandpa likes to keep stuff and repairs them. He's really good at mechanical work and I always think that the stuff he keeps will be able to bring in a lot of money in the future because they are all antiques.
Now it really pains me to see him so frail. Went to a friend's 21st birthday party and met up with old school friends. It was great seeing them again and laughing happily together. Finally I got to see my best friend. Recently, her grandfather just passed away and she was telling how upset she was, and I knew I would be just as depressed.

It's a good day (for sleeping)
Sigh. Woke up at 8am.
Having dance practice later at 9am. I'm feeling so sleepy, shouldn't have stayed on watching the movie.
It's the first week of holidays, and I've spent a lot of money already. Everyday was fun. Though we did nothing much. My body is aching from both trainings and practices.
Sigh. I have yet started on my website! DARN! Think I am going to get an "INCOMPLETE" grade.
I just want to play and play and play and play.
Yesterday I had IVP training. Actually I don't like IVP trainings at all. Luckily, still have my hall mates. The reason mainly is because I don't like seeing SP and ML. Somehow I can never run away from them. And I also don't like them being so close to the coach, as if trainings are chit-chatting sessions. Yesterday I was quiet during training so RS asked whether I'm ok or not. Back in hall, after buying my dinner back from behind, I bumped into him again. He tried to analyse why I felt that way and then concluded that I need a new boyfriend. I guess so. But sigh. Nobody likes me. Hehe. He jokingly said that he will be my part-time boyfriend for free. That's nice of him. He's really a good catch. HAHA.
I remembered today is SP's birthday and I 'm not going for his chalet because I really have dance practice. And tomorrow's RS birthday.
Sigh. What a nice weather to sleep in!

Finally exams are over for me! This has got to be the most difficult-to-endure exam period. To think that I'm the last one to finish on my wing!
Luckily, my neighbours are damn fun! I enjoyed every moment spent with them.
E3 04/05 and E3 05/06 are two extreme groups of people.
I like them both.
I like being taken care of in E3 04/05. I like being the youngest. I like to be doted on by seniors. I like to listen to great stories of hall life. I like having cats around. I like playing MJ. I like composing songs with Grace.
I like suggesting crazy ideas in E3 05/06. I like laughing damn hard and damn loud. I like calling people names. I like THE TABLE. I like eating meals with 7-8 people. I like running with my neighbours. I like being called "Mary/ Ma Li/ Good fren".
Life's really funny. When I think I'm not going to survive well, the next moment, I'm so attached to the place.
