saying hello & goodbye.
went to the columbarium on the 26th of may to see my grandma, or rather, her ashes. or to put it better, her memory. sometimes i still can't grasp the notion that someone living & breathing is reduced to ashes and resides in an urn. how cyclical life is. a season to live, and a season to die, as Ecclesiastes puts it. how much of our life is unforeseen by us who live it; yet we still choose to live life frivolously, because it's my life. where is the meaning in life then, to indulge in temporary pleasures & unfulfilling relationships? (okay, i'm going reeaally ecclesiastical now.) grow up & stop to love, listen, and learn.
the words i wrote to her are depicted below. words can be transcendent, y'know. ask any poet like shakespeare or donne. and the flower petals at the side lend a touch of beauty to my words too. (:

thank God for my good results, which i received on tues. (: so blessed, i am. watched Over The Hedge and She's The Man too. but ThePictureHouse's calling me. who's game for artsy films?! also, my throat's feeling much better & i really hope i don't lose my voice! may i drink gallons of water. oh and my bro just returned from the US. he told me that ben&jerry's cost S$4.50 per tub! ahh!! give me ben&jerry's, or give me death. (a pun on give me liberty, or give me death. heh.) happy sleeping all! while i really become panda-eyed.
