goodbyes

hello, folks! so sorry for being "absent" for two weeks. life has been hectic as usual. challenges were aplenty. hhmm...


1. the week before last had seen 4 deaths of my relatives which had occurred one after another. two of late Dad's male cousins (which themselves were brothers) died on Monday and Thursday respectively. on Tuesday and Wednesday - two relatives of mom.

2. on Monday afternoon last week...Bang Lan's (my maternal 1st cousin) mom-in-law had lost her battle with cancer. Aunt Jawahir's old flame - Tan Sri Abd. Taib Mahmud (yup, the current Sarawak CM) paid his last respect on the day of her funeral the following day.

3. Lejla Abu Bekir passed away on Wednesday. who was she? Tan Sri Abd. Taib Mahmud's 68 year-old wife...also succumbed to cancer. must had been a huge blow for him though - a lady whom he once had the hots for and his wife...both had gone to be with their Creator on the same week! she was laid to rest at her hubby's burial ground.

4. i was freed on Wednesday too, for my 11-month relationship had ended. i was expecting it, and it's a clean break up. i wish my ex all the best in his future undertakings.

it was meaningful - dear MM. you will forever be my friend and rest assured, you will not be forgotten even for a second. go realize your dreams...my prayers are with you.

5. i got my convo letter last week from YUAITIEM. YAY!!! i will get to sport the dark blue gown and mortar board on Gawai Day. i will finally get to call myself an alumnus once the ceremony is over.


indeed...what had happened did signify goodbyes. life has its own ways to materialize them.
