Qing Ming...

One of the festivals I look forward to every year...
My interpretation of it is a time where the family gets together... works together to clean up ah ta..ah ne.. and ah pak's resting place... but it's not all work and no fun...we somehow manage to laugh a lot at the cemetery...cracking jokes..laughing about old times... remembering old times... it's always kinda fun...

Today wasn't exactly the same... cousin CK wasn't feeling so well so he didn't come along..
AND... today while we were plucking the wild grass off the...erm... rockbed?? i forgot if it was aunt or cousin who found a bone o.O ... then we concluded that it was a tooth.... then suddenly on a bed of grass there was a SET of teeth...haha.... freaky yet funny... we had to think if it was real teeth or dentures -.-...

but some traditions remain... like buying ice cream for ah pak... he gets 2 sticks :) ..

and qing ming is also..kinda personal.. coz it's the only time of the year i pay a dear friend a visit..it's been 3 years... i miss her lots... but sometimes we get too busy to really think about our lost loved ones everyday... i do think of her often ..but it's the only day of the year i get to leave flowers there... hope she likes it...
