My ‘happy thoughts‘ been lagging for few days now …not that there’s no happy thoughts keeping me going, but more so of being caught up with birthday celebration and whatnot 🙂 .
Things have been hectic – not a bad thing since CNY is just around the corner. I love CNY (not for those horrid dong dong chiang songs or gaudy red decos) but for what it symbolize within my family and our family tradition.
My grandma has been admitted into the hospital again – at the ripe old age of 97, the family doesn’t want to see her suffer but would really like to have her home for CNY.
Praise the one above, as we heard that she’s recuperating very well and yesterday night, when I visited her and in my broken hokkein asked ‘ Ah Ma, do you know who am I?’ — in a loud, energetic voice she called out my nickname.
And to me, that is the most beautiful voice in the world.
