I feel sorry for the few times I didnt wanna and didnt feel like going to grandma's house when I couldn't wake up in the morning.
Just now,I went to visit her to bid farewell before going to China tomorrow. Waking up from the noise me and my family made in the house, she sat up and smiled at me before asking if I am bringing enough food to China. She gave me an angpow worth 50 bucks and told me to takecare. "What time is your flight tomorrow? I want to be there to send u off." My family and I reassured her that she can rest at home as we need to depart home at 5am. She insisted in going.
Guilt. Sitting in front of me is the woman I did not make an effort to visit. Whats the "I slept at 3am and cannot wake up at 9am" excuse? The very same woman closing in on 80 years old just got discharged from the hospital today, with diabetes, swollen legs and heart problem wanna make an effort to wake up at 4am plus in the morning just to send her grandson off.
Thank you and sorry grandma. I love you.
On a lighter note, time passes fast! Going to China tomorrow.
A month is neither a short nor a long time, but being human its bound that I feel a little sad. All the things im gonna miss in Singapore - The food, outings, family, friends and football. Its a bitter sweet feeling I have now.
The believe that im leaving for a higher purpose is there. I'll come back stronger and more mature as a person im sure. For now, its time to say goodbye my friends (=
I'll be back.
