New Year, 1/4bad start; 3/4 good start.
St Margs girls was really really amazing.
But for me, there's a lesson to be learnt.
Yesterday Mimi gave me off to rest up.
Went for training and it was superb.
Went town to do shopping for the month (I got my Crumplers!) and headed down to West Coast Plaza to meet M for dinner at Fish&Co (The Best Fish and Chips In Town were wonderful and their Sharkie Freeze was humungous!). Then we headed to the bus stop to head home.
While waiting for our bus, I got a call from a teary sounding mum. "The hospital called and said *yeye's condition worsened the doctor told us(meaning everybody closely related the Cho family) to go down to the hospital now. Where are you?" at that moment, I was stunned and didn't know how to react. I told her that I was at westcoast and I don't know how to get to AH. Then the told me to keep in contact and head home.
Told M what happened and he said I could take a busto Queensway SC and walk or take a cab down since it wasn't too far from where I was. I took the second. He passed on at 1245 this morning.
I was thankful that M was there because, my mind was blank and I really didn't know what to do. Besides, I got a chance to see my grandpa before he left. While listening to my aunts and mum cry, the memories of my granpa filled my mind like how running water fills a bucket.
The way he tries to tickle us when we were young, the way he gives us coins to put into our piggy banks etcetc.
Sigh.
What a way to start a NewYear.
*yeye= grandpa in chinese
