  • My journey to Taiping is an interesting one. When i reached my grandpa house, my grandpa was not at home. I was told that he and a few of my relatives went to Ipoh. Surprisingly, my cousins ( about 6 of them, about to enter primary 1) didn't jump on me as they did to me last year. They are ... quite polite. They greeted me with a ... proper manner, and of course, i never let my guard down, in case those 'politeness' is just a plot to catch me off guard. They sat beside me, and watch television, and never make a sound. My 6th sense told me that they are up to something. One of my eye was watching TV, the other eye was watching them ( i hope my eyes can do that). Till then, i was still shock by their behaviour. Then, i wondered around the house, and spotted a dvd called 'Chronicle of Narnia'. I was overjoyed because i wanted to watch that movie. As soon as i switched on to that movie, the wild side of my cousins started to reveal themselves. They tried to spoil the story for me, and 6 of them talked at the same time, and i couldn't understand what they said, nor can i hear what the movie said. The subtitle make no sense, it's not even a sentence at all, and all the spellings are so screwed up, i didn't even know if those subtitles were english. Sigh... i need to re-watch the movie again.... Those kids are still the same old monkeys from last year. Thanks God they never jumped on me.

    Few hours later, i was called to Ipoh to take care my grandpa in the hospital. I was shock, because i didn't know my grandpa was ammited to hospital, or what happened to him in Ipoh. Evening i was sent to Ipoh and found out that he went to hospital just for a check up (phew). The doctor asked my grandpa to stay in the hospital for 2 days. Some how I appeared from no where and decided to visit my grandpa at this hour, i was summoned to take care my grandpa in the hospital, since i have nothing to do (NO!!!!!!!!!!!). Visit my grandpa is 1 thing, but take care of my grandpa in hospital??!? In my heart i was shouting WHY!!!?!? There are nothing to do than looking at those sick people. But look at the bright side, i have 2 days time to tell my grandpa that i'm heading to mission trip, and catch up with my grandpa, which i donno how to do that. Those 2 days, i got to know my grandpa much better. At least i know a bit about my family background, and what my grandpa did before he got married and stay in Taiping. He, just like me, ran around malaya whenever he was free. After settle in Taiping, he too, went all over the world for holiday, especially China. Now, age caught up with him (81 years old now), and finally settle down in Taiping. We didn't really get to talk that much in the hospital because he slept a lot, and I just watch television in the hospital. I got to pray for my grandpa as well, which i seldom do it. In the hospital, i didn't bring my cloths, soap and tower. Lucky i got a toothbrush and a tooth paste from a small shop. I din shower almost 2 day... I only sleep on a small sofa chair, no comfy bed for me...

    As for my purpose of my trip to Taiping, I didn't get the chance to tell my grandpa that I'll be going to mission trip, and not coming back for chinese new year. My brother told my grandpa. Thanks God my grandpa was not angry, but got lectured by aunty. She scolded me:' Don't come back and become a Pastor!!!! If not, grandpa is going to knock your head!!!!'. Hmmm... wat make her think I'll be a pastor....

    I just got back about 1 hr ago, and decided to go to Dan and Jasmine's wedding. My aunt arrange transportation to Singapore for me, and I just made transport arrangement with David when i reach singapore, and later will be staying at his house for 1 night. I'll be heading home at 1st of Jan, and prepare for Thailand Mission Trip.

    things work out so far. Thanks God for that because I was praying all time wat to do... I hope my journey to singapore is a smooth 1 as well. Well... time for me to take some rest and shower. 2 days of sleepless night, and not going to sleep well for next 2 days, and today.
