Back in Singapore

Upon return from KL, met up with SPIC. She's always so ready to offer her help to her friends. Sometimes it makes me wonder the true meaning of 'sinister'. Haa... It's a different type of 'sinisterism', I guess. Talk is in the way of a possible Europe backpacking next year. Most people heard of the phrase 'great minds think alike'. When SPIC mentioned she wanted to go Germany, 'sinister minds think alike' flashed through my mind. Haa...

Things are considered smooth-sailing in KL. Discovered quite a lot of things which only make sense to me now, and more than convinced that my dad was smart. Collected his final medical report from the hospital in Malacca, and found out his brain can pack more neurons in a given area of cortex, the brain size just slightly bigger than that of Albert Einstein. Small brain means smart woh. Haa... Not a bad idea to share the same name as the famous scientist. Also makes me wonder, does that mean a bird with pea-brain is smart? Haa... Apart from the heart that was problematic, every other part of the body was 'grossly normal'. Doctors just love to use big terms in medical reports. I had to google and wiki search almost very single big word in the report to find out what the doctor was talking about. And why do they love to use 'grossly normal' since it's normal anyway? Funny right.

Not extremely looking forward to going back to work. I have yet to find what truly interests me in life. I'd keep on searching. Even if it takes me 50 years, I still need money to feed me. Haa...

Goodbye, Daddy!

I found all those things he used to predict his life, our lives. Some people say too much of these stuff shorten lifespans. I guess it's true in my dad's case.

I found his old photos. He looked pretty handsome when he was young.

I found all his Chung Ling anniversary school magazines, coupled with a photo of him together with his good friends.

I found a letter from Hainan. He has kept in touch with the old folks there and sent money back regularly.

I found his engineering drawings. He could draw such straight lines without a ruler.

I found his calculator. We bought the same calculators together.

I found a lot of advanced stuff on his new laptop. We bought him the laptop. It was our father's day gift to him in 2007. It was his last present from us. It was also his favourite. My father's friends told us how much he loved it that he used it everyday.

I found many father's day cards in his drawers. He kept them so well. I almost thought they were new.

I think there are still many things for me to find out. But I'd love to.

I miss you, Dad.
