It's ching ming again.
(Ching Ming or Qingming, meaning clear and bright, is the day for mourning the dead, a day for Chinese families to visit our ancestors graves.)
Went back to Ipoh to pray my grandpa.
it's been 10 years since he left us.
I recalled back, that time i'm still an innocent kid who doesn't know anything about death,my cousin still thinks my grandpa is sleeping. :) It's normal for a kid right?
Not really sad at that time, i don't understand and am not closed to my grandpa.
He always call me the naughty girl, haha, i'm a bully.
He's happy because i'm the only grandaughter who speaks hokkien to him.He's hokkien, but none of his children speaks hokkien to him so he's ecstatic when my mom speaks. :)
The thought of ching ming reminds me of a poem.I 'm sure every chinese knows :)
I hate the fact that i got a b+ for my chinese!
It kinda ruin my chance for a scholarship! Arghh. Got to work hard lo
清明时节雨纷纷，
路上行人欲断魂。
借问酒家何处有？
牧童遥指杏花村。
It drizzles endless during the rainy season in spring,
Travelers along the road look gloomy and miserable.
When I ask a shepherd boy where I can find a tavern,
He points at a distant hamlet nestling amidst apricot blossoms.
The night before ching ming there is blackout in our house.
Don't know what happened, maybe the something wrong with the fuse?
It's 3hours worth of darkness.Aih
I used the shining star torch from sj con as a source of light, my mom is impressed with it's brightness. :)
The torch.
I read yesung's fanfic on my lousy netbook, it's so slow,it's my dad's originally, but he throws(not give, you know) it to me cause it's slow. Puahaha
There is an indian procession in front if my house, it's an indian festival i think?
I watched it in dark, they have it every year.
