Blah 疲倦 Blah 歸家

FishLamb is a pig - she has only been eating & sleeping in the past 24 hrs. *oo*

Here I am, back to my life in Cowgary.
It was a super short trip, but I did enjoy it. I mean, even though it was for funeral, it was still nice to meet so many relatives; it was like a family reunion thingy.
Next time will probably be my brother's wedding. :)

Thanks BBB & YipYip for "escorting" me to airport so early in the morning - we left home @ 5:30am!!
And it was disastrous cuz it was raining cats & dogs. x_x"
I owe you guys a lot...

Didn't do much on the flight(s) this time. Felt asleep on 1/2 way of "Terminator", but did watch "The Proposal" on the way to Seattle - yea, it's funny! Thanks SSC.

At Narita, shopped for some souvenirs for co-workers & family, paid by Visa. Oh, I also used the yens that Brother gave me for 10mins Internet access, a grapefruit alcoholic beverage, and a piece of cake-bread.

Managed to steal wi-fi @ Seattle, so I sent a couple of emails. Ordered a Chicken Caesar for lunch but couldn't finish it; my mood fluctuated. =/
Napped at the airport...

Can't believe they serve wine for free on my short flight from Seattle to Cowgary! Surprising indeed (they usually charge $5 for that).

I'm again stinky & sticky & walking around with my oily hair.
Yea, haven't taken a shower for nearly 30hrs, and this time I was leaving from HK - which means I bused to airport in the hot & humid weather, which was definitely a pain.

I realized how I had temporarily relieved my burden when I was in HK...
But I'm back again & once again I went back to the situation that I was stuck at. ~_~"
I guess it's the thing that bothers me the most at the moment... Right, the world is never perfect, and it will never be, most likely.
Yet, something can be done right to make the world one step closer to perfection.
It's such a long battle... When am I gonna back out? =/

"1000 Gold Lady"... Are you still heading the right way? =/

Will be back to my normal life tomorrow; woo hoo~

*******************************************************************

回想這個short trip, 總覺得好似好開心好滿足咁 - 我咁樣講好似好衰, 因為明明係為左奔喪而番HK 的.
但係就係因為今次依個trip 好清楚只為一件事, 所以完全無expectation, 又奉旨唔需要約人.
當我完成晒funeral 嘅野而仲有時間剩, 可以同BBB 出下街, 買下漫畫買下CD, 依D 一切一切, 我覺得係我賺左的.
反而之前(or 之後) 番HK, 因為打正旗號係要番去"狂歡", 總覺得如果出街出得唔夠多, 見朋友見得唔夠多的話, 就好似好唔抵咁.
雖然今次的旅程真係好辛苦, 轉機轉到傻, 不過似乎都是值得的. 這特別的經歷, 一生人試過一次, 都算唔錯了.

Blah 爺爺 Blah 喪禮

FishLamb is proud of her grandpa.

So here we finished up with Grandpa's funeral stuff.
Many friends & relatives showed up last night at the memorial service, some of them actually came all the way from Guang Zhou; really appreciate that.

Before I headed to HK, well, even when I was on my loooooong way to HK, I felt like I wasn't prepared for the funeral AT ALL.
Yet the adults have got all the things straightened out already, all I needed to do was to BE THERE.

Anyhow... It's sort of weird to listen to Grandpa's stuff / stories from others. Though I spent a bulk part of my childhood with my grandparents, that part of my life is quite far away from me as of now.
But of course, I still love them a lot & respect them a lot, and the bonding is special.

I'm truly proud of my Grandpa... He's such a nice, kind, & easy-going guy in many people's mind. And that is so true, cuz as far as I remember, it wass usually Grandma yelling at him instead of the way around.
And he is fairly educated as well... In case you don't know, it was him who picked the name "Chi" for me, with the meaning of second daughter; and I love it.
It's a blessing that he believed in Jesus few years back, knowing that one day I'll meet him again.
But for now, I miss him.

Grandma was tougher than we all have thought. Uncles & Aunties even thought maybe she should stay home instead of going to the funeral.
Thanks God that she was doing OK at the funeral. Prayers count.
However, she isn't doing very well in general. Her memory is much worse than I could imagine - she forgets who I am, and sometimes sheveven forgets Grandpa has passed away already.
Well, maybe it's a good thing to her? I don't know...

Turned out I really didn't have time to meet with my friends, but I did have the chance to hang out with BBB.
Thanks for everything my dear buddy: the care you showed to me & my family, your presence, the day-off that you took, the fact that you insisted going to airport with me etc...
And remember, not because you've moved back to HK thus you haven't met another me; you simply won't meet another me no matter where you go. :D
Will see you again real soon my dear, gotta treat you a nice dinner!
Oh, and of course thanks for showing me how to use Picasa 3, and introducing me to Band B - funny people indeed. :)
