Being normal is never enough…

He was the 3rd brother in the family (my dad being the eldest).

He was once a great chef working at Brunei.

He used to cook very nice meal for us during Chinese New Year.

He bought my first “spiderman” toy figure when I scored well in my kindergarten exam. I was 5 years old back then, if I’m not mistaken…

…and last Friday, he had passed away.

It’s not that we didn’t see it coming. He had been diagnosed with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (S.L.E.) and Hypovolemia for many years back then. He had been fighting and struggling to survive from these illnesses, endured much pain and spent countless night in the hospital…

… and in the end, he left us… forever.

You will always be in our memory and we miss you, Uncle Sang… May you rest in peace…

EMPTA was one of the big sponsor in my education life. Since primary school, I’ve been “forking” out some money from them every year. Small money, big money, whatever I can get, I’ll sweep everything (I’m pretty greedy huh? muahahahaha… =P).

But all this has come to an end… This is the final year I’m eligible to apply for it.

The “one kind” face… Get caught on candid camera. =P

You may ask why… Well, people grow old and it’s harder for old people to ask for money from others… too bad for me…. =P

Paycheck !

After the prize giving ceremony, we went for lunch at a Korean BBQ restaurant near Kepong, DAORAE. It was not the original plan, but there’s a “girl” who’s so eager to try it just because her favourite artists was there before (duh… girls can spend anything on things they are crazy bout…). In the end, the whole family just bear with the decision.

What we don’t expect much is always something that will surprise us most.

At first we thought it was just an ordinary Korean cuisine restaurant with only Kimchi. We order 2 sets for taste trying. Yes, the food comes with Kimchi (as expected), but with a lot more than that. The waiter was very friendly to help us BBQ the meat and teach us HOW to eat Korean food.

Wah, eat food also need people to teach one ar?

Yes, it’s special… the cooked meat itself taste nothing, but after a few combinations and “combos” with other dishes, it taste FANTASTIC !!!

Well, it’s the same in life… thing which we think is insignificant to us,  is crucial to another thing that’s important to us.

Since it was my day forking other people’s money, I ended up being forked to foot the bill…
