9. my new BLOG. morethanjustfats.blogspot.com
10. spent the last hour of year 2007 reflecting.....


OK. let me define my blog. All of u may think that morethanjustfats.blogspot.com is actually created to suit my lifestyle of going to gym. Seriously, this blog name took me quite some time to come up with. Fatty food is what my grandma likes most. the 3 layers of fats from roasted pork was my grandma's favourite. to her, it was more than just fats. it was a cuisine, a delicacy, a heavenly dish. My sisters and i tried hard to stop her from all these fatty food but nothing seem to stop her. Now that grandma is gone, i hope she would be happy wherever she is. my sis, despite her mature age, came up today and told me sumthin childish. She said : " Yao Wei, do you think grandma left so suddenly because her time was up to turn immortal?" i rudely shut her up. i know its nonsense but i hope that what she says is true. My grandma is a strong believer of buddhism and a great fan of Sun WuKong. this is the only show that she comment as though she is one of the actors inside. She is funny. Yes she is. She got her sense of humour from me.

The Most meaningful thing i have done this year is to send my grandma away on her last journey.
The Saddest thing in my life is my grandma's death. needless to say, it affects me alot.
The cheekiest thing i did this year was to KS my frens in games and deny kelvin lim when he was teleporting.
Regret of 2007 = Not fulfilling my promise to grandma to find a girlfren i can bring to her on CNY 2008.

Grandma, Die well, Rest well. -27/10/2007

2mths past....

Grandma passed away 2mths ago... things are getting better now but i am still not reali used to life without her. no1 cooks better than her. i regret not appreciating them while i could... the eggs she cooked no1 could match. I nd sum1 who can cook nice eggs like her and maggi noodles oso. i realised sumthin... for the res of my life, i will be living without my grandma's love. i used to joke with her that if i get a girlfren, she'll be the firs to know. Now, i am quite sceptical about it because i wont know if she reali knows.


Grandma left me with emptiness within me....

Christmas Countdown?

A fact! There is no Christmas Countdown at Sentosa! Sentosa only holds new year countdowns. so dun be mountain mushroom like me and my grp of frens. at 10+pm on 24dec nite, we took the monorail into sentosa and alighted at siloso beach. we strolled down the stretch of footpath in search of a countdown party but we ended up playing on the sand and took some photographs.

Lesson Learnt: If condoms dont give 100% assurance, please do not be 100% sure. Precautions are to be taken so as to prevent failure.

My Grandmother

This is my first blogpost and i am gonna blog abt my grandmother. She died on 27 oct 2007. At abt 11.32am, i received an sms frm my sis telling me that my grandmother was not able to make it alr. and at 11.48am, an sms came in again. this time, my grandma passed away. i was helping out at my uncle's stall at that point of time and my heart sank hell deep. i couldnt react i cant even cry. i left for home after a haircut. it was a cut that ah po(grandma in my dialect) pestered me for months. At the barber, i reflected how unfillial i was since i acknowledged my grandmother 17years and 10mths ago. I was a bully, a big bully. Despite all my misdeeds, ah po shown my with all her love, care, concern and everything no1 else on earth would do for me. After the hair cut, i hid in my room alone and cried my heart out.

At evening time, my family tree gathered its branches at my grandfather's house. We discussed about ah po's afterlife preparations. i tried to be strong. i held back my tears. we went out for dinner and every1 seemed fine. i knew i was affected but i just dun wan to add on the every1's burden. that night, when ah po's funeral photo arrived, i made sure i was the 1 who received it. i held it tight. that night, i washed my face in tears. why? why did this happen so suddenly?

Ah Po was my living superwoman and no1 could replace her. She was more than just a grandma. she was my idol, my fren. Being the eldest grandson, i was considered as her youngest son and true enough, she shown warmth of morning sunshine and patience of a nurse thoughout my childhood. Ah po, although i will not get to see you again, u will always be in my hearts for now and for ever. i want you as my grandma for all my next lives. I MISS YOU!

Life after your death was unbearable. i missed your cooking. i missed teasing you, i missed seeing u smile i missed your loved for me i missed your advices i missed those times i spent with you. i missed everyting you told me.

At the hospital, when i was alone with ah po, i promised her if i were to get a girlfren, i would get a fillial girlfriend. sum1 who wouldnt quarrel with my parents, sum1 who would take care of my family. i also promised her that i would not get the ear piercing that i longed for. Ah po, for you, i will stay strong and move on. i know you will be here with me, in my heart.

Yesterday was dong zhi, i did not eat any tang yuan cos i was not supposed to. i missed those time i made tang yuan with you. it felt weird, it felt bad. A piece of advice to every1 out there. Cherish the people around you while you can. Death strikes without warning.

Ah po, good bye....
