Thank God that I got the job offer just before my trip back home. It was less burden and very relaxing. It was full of surprises and fun... When i arrived, Typhoon #8 welcomed me. The landing was terrifying... for the moment, I thought to myself... what if I died? Should I write down something, something that's so important to me that takes up my mind in the last minute of my life?? ... ... When the plane was successfully and safely landed, everyone clapped their hands and cheered for the pilot. Thank God we are still living. ... When I departed, typhoon #1 sent me off. I was afraid that the signal would go up; however, there were seconds where I wished I could stay few more days for that..
... and Here I am. I am back safe and sound. Thanks Vivian for picking me up too. =]
In the past two weeks, I got to spend some time with my Grandma. I realized just like my Grandma said that I might not be able to see her again next time I go back ,which is also what I am afraid of ... She slept a lot... Once, I took a nap on the sofa while she was having hers on her bench just nearby.. I was more like dozing off and back up.. checking Grandma's breath...
Grandma is the one who babysat me when I was little... I thought my Grandma got bad temper and I think I got bad temper too cuz I always talked back to her when I was young.. haha... She's old, older than I thought... before I saw her in person...
I had gatherings with high school classmates and friends(pic below) and elementary school classmates and friends (I forgot to take pix with them =( )..
Everybody seemed to be doing quite well... most of them are working a decent job.. some are still looking... some got married. some just gave birth to her baby! Time really flied ... a blink of eyes, 12 years went by... People haven't changed much, although the appearance might have, the character and personality are pretty much like before during school, more mature.....
I went visit my high school English 兼班主任 teacher with my old classmate.
It was for that too, I got to enter and visit my high school again. The school is so much different now.. prettier? .. I don't know... Although it looked so different now.. some of the places still reminded me of my high school days.. where I spent most of my days and nights..
...
Mom always asked me to go shopping .. She went with me.. and she picked for me... =\
so we fought a lot .. haha.. She is planting tomatoes in her little balcony garden. She's so excited to see the tomatoes are ripening.. she picked one and let me try it.. It's very small and I guess she didn't wash it thoroughly.. cuz i tasted the soil... It's small and sour.. but yea it's the reward of effort and patience.
My Dad was busy everyday.. with work.. and stuff.. and he was a star for my brother's wedding day cuz he did lots of things (prepared for the traditional rituals? assigned tables, drove people, welcomed ppl, paid the money...) ! haha
I didn't get to go yum cha with him this time... which is a pity... He's so busy with work.. I just hope that he will be able to handle it and have time to rest...
...
...
What about the wedding banquet itself? It was gorgeous. =]

I didn't get to eat much.. you got it? many tables to toast.. and I didn't get to eat my 幸福伊面... =\
