yesterday night was feldy birthday celebration at her uncle's ktv at bukit batok.. many people turned up but many people didn't.. but it was fun.. singing and taking photos.. but my Canon died on me when it was time to cut cake.. or else i could have taken more of the memorable moments for him.. wasted! but can see that he was happy and he enjoyed himself.. which was good.. and not forgetting i was happy too.. with the chance to sing with my laopo! -grin-
still waiting for my bro to transfer the photos to me.. but for now.. zhenling's camera..

me and zhenling!!

with Re-Ah-Na!

group photo!

the birthday boy on the chair.. and he has to blow the un-extinguishable candles from there..

and the cake.. designed by ME! ((;'
TODAY
another big day for me.. Class 3 Traffic Police Test
hmmm.. slept til quite late before heading down to CDC for my final circuit revision.. and it was raining quite heavily.. and we prayed that it wun rain when i am on test.. and luckily.. the rained stopped.. and the practice was okay.. some part was inconsistent and i learned emergency brake for the first time.. and managed to successfully did it in 2nd try..
then it was time to take the test.. 2.45pm.. i was the first to sit and wait in the test room and many people came in shortly.. total of 16 people on test.. 4 male.. 12 female.. and we began balloting and my tester was Dennis Ho.. and i called my instructor and he told me this tester not bad.. not so picky.. should be able to pass.. so they slowly call one by one out.. and i was the 2nd last to be called.. and i was damn nervous.. but everything was done smoothly.. without fail.. and everytime i see him writing on the paper... i damn scared.. and i can really feel my left leg shaking on the clutch.. hahaha.. went out the road.. was route 7.. suppose to go to eunos mrt area to make a u-turn.. but diverted and went jalan damai there and back to circuit.. i was lucky to be alert and stop in time when the traffic light turns ember.. and another occasion.. the arrow blinked.. hmm.. and also cars giving way to me when i lane change.. so back to the centre.. i went to 2nd storey with him.. and he said that "everything ok except for ur e-brake.. two hands on the steering wheel".. and when i saw him ticked pass.. i was damn happy! and he wrote a 2.. and i was shocked.. 2 demerit points only.. for putting one hand on steering wheel when e-brake! haha.. wheeeee.. class 3!!
then later in the evening.. drove my dad car to bugis to meet weiling they all.. and walked around and had desert and liang seah street.. had watermelon sago..

mine!

and those we had.. ((;'
then after that went to my car.. and my battery died on me.. my dad had already warn me that the battery is very weak and got problem already.. so better be careful.. and it really died.. so i ask one of the driver nearby and he was super nice to agree and gave my car some power... really appreciate it a lot! but the aircon cant on..
.jpg)
giving energy.. x=
so drove weicheng home.. then jasmin.. and to bedok to fetch my brother.. and send weiling home before heading home.. guess tml my dad will be using my bike.. so its back to MRT.. means i have to wake up early.. and squeeze with the morning crowd.. and also listen to songs and slp on the train..

wheeeee.. i am back from the Vespa Meetup just now!
went Julian house in the morning for mahjong.. before heading down to the KTM railway station at tanjong pagar to meet up with the rest.. reached around 7pm and saw igz there.. and fern, kenny and jen came shortly.. and we started eating first.. and more came afterwards and by 830.. there were already 20plus vespas there.. not forgetting the harley gang opposite.. lol.. then chit chat and take photos here and there and began setting off to orchard road convoy at 10pm and it was really an experience riding with 20plus vesporeans in town.. its so damn cool! and we 'picked up' a classic scoot on the way.. which add one more to our strength..
some left after the orchard convoy.. the rest continued our way and we stopped at petrol kiosk to top up our fuel.. before heading to yishun dam.. with the long 'forest' ride inwards.. and seeing lots of cars mods and sportsbike around us.. and all eyes were on us when we were riding along the dam.. and we settled down at one spot.. and total strength that time was 21.. ((;' then left at 1plus and headed down to jalan kayu for prata and drinks..
it was great meeting up with the people who comes from all different background.. but share a common interest.. which is scooter.. and some own 5 vespas and some even own cars.. but they were scooters enthus and they shared their technical and road experience so newbies like me can learn about it..
there was this guy who came from Australia on a business trip and he came across the VCS forum and joined us for this meetup.. and Jen pillioned him throughout.. very nice chap with interesting experience in Aust.. and i think he certainly have a memorable experience with us..
and just now beside us at the Dam was the gang of sportsbike.. 22 of them.. with illegal modification of LED lights.. and they left earlier than us.. and while they were heading to thomson.. they were all caught by traffic police and detained on the road.. as heard from Coco.. Vespas VS sportsbike.. Vespas definetly more appealing.. hahaha.. ((;'
so so looking forward for the next meetups at the end of the year.. go VESPA go!!!

Yesterday went down to AMK Hub to support my younger brother in the Asia Beatboxing competition preliminary round and left shortly after he finish performing.. hmm.. there was way too many beatbox regulars and pros.. and he was anxious resulting in very short performance.. good exposure for him although he didn’t qualify.. met up with peiying a while at amk hub and it has been very long since I last met up with her..
Then went off to orchard for my Santarina job.. was the first to reach.. hmmm.. then vesporeans all were early and came shortly.. then the santarinas came.. and we started work after everyone was ready.. and we managed to finish 2 rounds plus in orchard.. and the response from the public was welcoming and there were happy to see all of us.. with cute vespas and pretty santarinas.. and the sweets were given out in no time.. another thing I like is riding together with fellow vesporeans as a group.. and of course.. to be part of the xmas season in orchard! (((;’
Couldn’t go for dinner with fern they all after the job.. hmm.. so rushed to vivo to meet up with the rest to cut the cake for sio.. it was her early birthday celebration and shortly after I arrived.. the cake came too.. and she had to blow the candles from the chair.. x= and its happy to see her happy.. and everyone disturbing her.. hahaha!! then chilled out at the roof there.. with some drinking session.. and everyone headed home after that..
Some pictures from Vivoooooo....

yesterday was the last day of funeral and my grandma is moving off to a 'new home'.. went home around 4am in the morning and went back at 7plus.. and was still tired.. so sleep a while over there.. and it started raining heavily.. everyone was very cold.. the rain continues til it was about time for the coffin to move out..
many people send their offerings.. and paid their last respect to grandma.. and the funeral band came too.. and they played super loud music.. and we had our last prayers too.. and we scattered flowers around her coffin.. hoping that she will really rest in peace.. it was the last time for us to see her face.. before her coffin was fully sealed and closed..
it was emotional.. her only 2 daughters cried out loud.. showing how much they miss her.. and of course.. everyone teared when we see her face for the very last time and saying things we wanna say and calling her grandma.. from the eldest uncle to the younger grandchildren.. tears dropped for many reasons.. we miss her.. we will remember her.. and we are happy she need not suffer anymore and we are grateful..
when the time has come.. 1245pm.. the coffin was moved to the car and the tears came out faster from the two daughters.. and they cried out loud.. and we slowly walked and the 6sons together with the eldest grandson pushed the van with her lying peacefully inside.. and we walked.. everyone teared.. and i just hugged my mum by my side.. and yes.. grandma is moving off to a new place..
and there at mandai.. we gathered at the service hall.. and had some prayers again.. and thanks everyone for their presence.. and it was sent to be burned.. and we moved to the viewing gallery.. and we can slowly see her coffin being moved inside.. everyone was crying.. the two daughters shouting for mummy and everyone trying to control them.. they were shouting for their mum and how grateful they are.. how thankful they are being brought up so well.. and my little cousin also.. shouting and crying for grandma.. she misses her grandma a lot.. and her voice was loud and filled the whole hall.. i guess those people in the hall would have felt our emotions and some might have teared.. and it was time to leave the place already.. to another temple to pray and this would be our grandma's new home..
was very very tired after this 5days.. packed up the wake's place and left for home to my lala land and slept from 5pm til today..
some random thoughts: hmmm.. i kinda respect those old people helping out in the funeral.. that uncle.. almost the same age as my grandma said that her face was very beautiful.. one of the nicest he ever seen and after 5days.. it didn't decompose much.. hmm.. that uncle.. must have helped in so much funeral.. so many cryings he have encounter and he might have even help in funeral of people younger than him.. those in the funeral band.. some were young.. and i saw one guy from the Funeral Intelligence Services.. doing all the layouts and stuffs.. and seriously.. who will want to do this kind of business.. not many i can say.. so i really respect those we are doing this.. really.. they help to ease sorrows and get things going..
----
today.. wonderful morning and had to wake up early as we are going to pick up the ashes.. it was raining also.. and we met up at one of our uncle house before departing to mandai to collect the ash.. and this is how little we are after we are burnt.. left with only this and the rest.. vanished into thin air.. hmmm.. then went to the temple to put the ash in place.. and had lunch together.. we were better already.. everyone thought it out already.. and we were not so emotional anymore..
this funeral had indeed make siblings closer.. relatives closer and cousins closer.. with my dragon girl who is 12 years younger..

smell no evil.. see no evil.. speak no evil.. hear no evil..

this 4! super noisy on the van that i have to play a competition that whoever talks will eat last later.. but in the end.. they agreed on eating together later.. ((;

and my dragon girl! DELIA HO! hahaha.. very very noisy.. the one who cried the loudest and the viewing gallery.. and she told me after that she felt so much better after crying..

the dragon babies!!

an end of a life means the start of another life somewhere in the world.. everyday.. there are many people who lost their love one.. and there are also many newborns..
Grandma just pass away on friday 12.15am as reported on the death cert.. and it has certainly make everyone sad.. but it has bonded all her 8 children together together with her grandsons.. hmmm.. now is the last night of her funeral wake.. and later on.. she will be on her last journey to mandai and will be cremated..
Thanks grandma for nuturing the 6 sons and 2 daughters which have now grown up and started their own family.. without you.. my father will not have existed.. and needless to say.. me.. hmmm.. i may not be very close to you but i am grateful of what you have done to the family and bringing all of us up alone.. it has been hard on you as a woman.. your love will be remembered forever.. and will live inside our heart and never dies.. ((;
It has been a very tiring weekend for me.. staying up at the wake and having very little sleep.. and exams are just next week.. and i am unable to attend school on tues and wed.. and will certainly miss out a lot of tips.. will try to regain what i have lost and catch up what i have missed.. jiayou mr veggie!

Some shots from today's Community Service at Poly Marina..

the ACEH gang!!

in actions! assisting in the boarding and alighting of the yatch..

and the private bus of HCA.. where the patients are from..
Those 21 patients from HCA were people suffering from some fatal illness and its beyond cure.. hmmm.. in other words.. they are just in the hospital waiting to die.. some of them just look so fine and healthy and they do not look like those who is suffering from fatal illness.. but i can see from them that they are living quite positively and try to enjoy the last few moments in life.. and students like us.. can only share our love and provide them with happiness.. the words from the aunties "you students are really nice!" will just brighten our day.. and just a few hours.. a short bond with them has established and it was time to say goodbye.. unwillingly.. and they just gave all of us goodbye kisses.. so sweet of them.. hmm.. just hope they will live strong and happy..
life has been so fragile and unpredictable.. and when its time to go.. you will have to let go all your worries and go peacefully without regrets.. hmmm.. there is no point making urself suffering more where there is little chance for survival..
tears almost form up in my eyes when i see her lying helplessly on the bed.. taking every breath slowly.. and the heart beat machine indicating every heartbeat.. and the many wires and solutions dripping.. it has really been hard on her and seeing her suffer.. but her suffer will end soon.. hmmm.. there is really nothing we can do now.. but to show our presence and our care and concer and love for her.. i guess this will be what she wants and contented with.. before her last breath..
lets spread the love like you never did before.. let people feel loved.. ((;
