Looking at these pictures make me smile. Isn’t he cute? Sushi pants are really awesome.
Today my gong gong passed away. Without warning. He seemed to be doing so well up till today. The funny thing is, I’m not that sad. Yet. Maybe because
1. I dreamt of Uncle Geok Pek last night, and it makes me feel like I dreamt that so that I would be assured that my gong gong’s safe in Heaven.
2. My gong gong’s last years on Earth were probably not the best, and I am half glad that he is now in a better place, where he can walk by himself, take care of himself, and do all the things he loves.
It could also be because I’m so tied up with work my brain is so focused on work that it doesn’t really think about what this really means.
Sigh. I am glad that I did have a few conversations with my gong gong before he went. Now I am just a bit worried about my grandma. Keep her and my family in your prayers, yes? :) Thanks.
/update: Some people have been asking about the wake, and it will be held starting today till Thursday night. Service is at 8pm on Wednesday and Thursday, and the cremation will be on Friday, 11.15am. If you want the address, SMS me!

My condolences to you. You know, I think your gong gong is my colleague’s father. He’s a Tan too and his dad passed away on the same day, I think.
