Enough!!! ...

... of emotional stuff on my blog! Time for some bright highlights of the days.

So what are the things that are keeping me busy during this time other than my HYP? Told u last time that I'm v much into $$$ lately right? Yup no doubt about it, I'm all up for $$ now, with the scary sight of 3 more months along the road when I'd be kicked out of NUS; no more scholarship, no more bursaries, and I'm gonna be starved b4 I manage to get a job :-&.

Oh well, it might not be the case if everything goes smoothly for my plan then, but who knows!

So I've gone for some interviews, hmm actually just 1 :">, then registered for V-day flowers sale too, hoping to get some $$ to fill my stomach before I lose more kg. Anyone of you who wants to get some nice flowers for your loved ones on that special day, plzz contact me *drool*. (no discount guaranteed but best flowers are assured to be offered ^_^; if required, I'd fight with other sellers to get those for ya ^_^)

Dad wrote yesterday telling about my neighbor, bro Nam's wedding. It's really a strange feeling thinking about someone so close to you from your very childhood to get married at this moment. Still remember how he often knocked my head when we were v small, then always ran around and played w me. Sometimes he made me cry and when I ran back to mum to tell him off, she always said: "aiyaa your own business, solve it with ur future husband"

Me: *cow face*!!

Everything was so beautiful back then. when I was small, those who were closest to me must have been bro Nam and sis Van, his older sister. Since the 2 families live nextdoor to each other, all best dishes would be shared when there was some ceremony in 1 of the 2 houses. Everytime when it rained heavily and my little house began to be flooded, yes! flooded to the very true meaning - while mum and dad were out to work - sis Van would always come to help protecting me, the girl who was being terribly scared of thunders and the water which was raising so fast to the level of the bed at that time ...

Dad said everyone was very happy at bro Nam's wedding. He's getting married to someone he's known for nearly 20 years, since his primary school time. Woo really admirable. Dad also wrote that his father read this during the wedding: "Today we are all here to celebrate the happiest moment of our 2 children: Tran Thanh Van ..."

He realized the mistake and changed the name "Tran Thanh Van" to "Tran Hoai Nam" right after that. Everyone was in a silence for a moment, and if I were there, I guessed a tear would have been shed .... Sis Van passed away 4 years ago, due to an incurable disease ... I was not at the hospital at that time, but I've heard enough stories about how her mother has broken down, how her bf held her so tight and long after she had stopped breathing, never wanted to let anyone take her away .... I myself cried non-stop for 3 days after her death ...

Sis Van was someone I could never forget, for all the smiles she has brought into my life. I couldn't hear much of her laughters during the last few years of her life; illness had worn her out, but memories about our childhood has never faded ...

So that's why, compared to those whom this life is so cruel to, I believe that being not in pain is already such a treasurable happiness that we sometimes take for granted ...

Really happy for bro Nam now ^_^, and for sis Van and all those closest ones to me who have passed away, I'm sure I need to live on strong and happy, so that memories about them would have more chances to be recalled in this life!

Enough for a long entry, time to get back to my 20 pages of German new words for next week test now :-&. God bless me!
