today was a bit sad. in the morning, i went to visit my dying 93 year old great grandaunt at SGH. she was like a human skeleton, and she was really frail and bed-ridden. the amazing things was that her mind was all there, and she could remember everything when she used to live with us. she remembered how my younger sis and i used to bicker a lot, and how my older sis wanted to do medicine but went to law instead.mentally, she was all there, but physically, she was fading away. this made me feel sad, cos she's always make agar agar for us when she lived with us, and she cooked all sorts of peranakan food for us, part of her and my family's heritage. the thing that was sad was that she said she wants to die already, and in 2 or 3 days time she'll be gone forever, only to remain as a memory in our hearts. again, this made me think of the fragility of life, and how we must treasure every aspect of it and to really fulfill it, we must live for God. yeah, it was quite sad. i think seeing dying people was why my sis didn't want to become a doctor. i then had tuition and i'm about to exercise now. bye!
