View from the back of the lorryearly this morning (6am), PP went to "sau mu" with my relatives.. Qing Ming is round the corner so we went to my ah ma's tomb to sau mu.. last week my relatives went to clean up ah gong's tomb.. today we went to clean up ah ma's & 1st uncle's tombs since both are located near to each other.. Choa Chu Kang cementery very crowded with ppl & cars.. since there was quite a number of us, my 6th uncle went to get his lorry.. my cousin drove his car with my Dayi, Eryi & Sanyi.. Siyi took the front of the lorry while PP's mum, ah gim & us kids (hehe!) sat behind the lorry.. whahaha!!
That's Ling climbing into the lorry.. hehe!! She's going to kill PP!! Wait!! this is better than the one which you find your leg fat.. keke~
it has been a long time since PP sat behind a lorry or pick up or a truck after PP's dad passed away.. Miss those times dearly.. PP's dad will drive back his office vehicle & bring the whole family to Pasir Ris Park for pinic during the weekends.. PP's mum will fry chicken wings, shu tiao (fries), fishballs, etc to bring there to eat..
back to sau mu thingy.. it has been more than a year since ah ma passed away.. but she stil lives in our hearts.. whenever we talk abt her, that tingling feeling will hit us.. but we know, she won't feel pain anymore... she's at a happier place now ba.. ah gim & ah gu arrange the pai pai stuff at ah ma's tomb while Dayi & ah Ming korkor arrange the pai pai stuff at 1st uncle's tomb.. weather very bad.. very very hot & not a single light breeze at all.. ashes were flying everywhere.. smoke pricking our eyes..
the windmill on the left is a new additional to the old one on the right.. these thingy helped you identify the tombs..
obviously still not fully awaked.. whahaha!! awake le la.. the smoke la..
it was 9 plus am when we were done.. we went back to ah gim's place cos need to pai pai ah gong also.. Henni (ah gim's maid) was preparing food for us too.. as usual, PP ate baobao & fell asleep at the sofa.. PP was shakeningly awakened by her mum to help ah gu get a splinter out of his hand.. so sudden.. PP stood up & dropped her new phone.. =( Vrigin drop.. heart pain ar.. no la.. not pain at all la.. got cover ma.. to get rid of the splinter in ah gu's hand more impt.. PP felt wat ah gu feel cos to have a foreign object under your skin, it's painful & disturbing.. good thing ah gu can take pain.. PP got to cut abit of skin off before she can get to the splinter.. (PP got do this to herself when a metal splinter was caught in her right 3rd finger) after a while of "digging", the splinter finally was taken out.. it was less than 1mm long but it can cause so much discomfort.. =S
view from the lorry on the way back..
after our meal at ah gim's place, we came home.. bath, on the air con, PP, Ling & BiL knocked out in PP's room (the cooler room cos it's the only room that got air con).. =) 4plus den PP woke up cos she was sweating.. anyway, PP can't sleep after that cos her mum was yanking on the phone loudly outside her room.. hehe!!
we went to have prata around 6pm.............
