In Loving Memory...

... of my Aunt Carol.


As most of you know, my aunt was diagnosed with the final stage of cervical cancer in 2007 and recovered after many sessions of radiotherapy. However, the cancer by then had spread to her lungs and liver and because she was unable to undergo chemotherapy, the doctor advised her to live quality life.

My aunt finally succumbed to the cancer on the 21st of October and I'm glad that I managed to get home in time and was by her side when she took her last breath.


That's me and my aunt in the Penang International Airport waiting to board our flight to LA

And this is a more recent photo of us when she was sending me off (together with my parents) at the Nibong Tebal bus station when I went back to Penang for a break. I know that this isn't exactly the most flattering photo of me with my puffy eyes but it isn't about me...


I will cherish and miss our times together, from the time I was a born until now. I'll always remember how she and my mom would patiently wait for my bus to arrive/plane to land when I come back home. How she and my parents will never fail to send me off when I go back to KL irregardless whether she was working that day. If she was, she'd take leave just to send me to the bus station/airport. How much I bugged her to buy me an iPod from US when I first caught the Apple bug and she complied. The weekend dim sum lunches and shopping sprees. How I put my hands over my ears when she nags at me about leaving the computer on overnight...

There's just so many things and I just don't know how to put it in words. I wake up every morning re-adjusting to the fact that she is no longer here.

I really miss her...

Random Thoughts...

...
Sugababes, without Mutya, is disgusting.
And that's with a capital "D".
