is this the time of the year when the grim reaper goes around collecting his dues? i guess it *is* the seventh month in the oriental lunar calendar after all. of late i've heard about so many people who had their family members departing i was starting to feel jaded "oh not another one"... that is until today. now. right now.
about 15minutes ago, i was informed of a piece of news by my mum on msn video conference. the news happened this morning. my grandmother passed away. according to my mum as well, she'd complained of stomach pains last night, after dinner. they admitted her to hospital. when my parents went to visit her this morning, the doctors could not revive my grandmother. she was 93. they said she left with the look of mother theresa on her.
first time after a long while, that somebody close to me passed away. i'm rather clueless/confused/directionless now. i'm not sure how i feel. sad? frustrated? dejected? depressed? desire to cry? i can only use pent-up for now. perhaps, the news hadn't sinked in inside my head yet.
alas, life must go on. the course must be completed. at least i went back to sg in june and saw her. *cue sad violin piece*
