First day of the funeral wake for my grandfather was tiring. This will be a quick post because I am super duper ultra mega tired :/
My mom dragged me out of bed this morning at 7 because we had to go for my grandfather's funeral wake :/ Took so long to find a black shirt, without any bright colours :/ Argh.
All my relatives had to perform some rituals when my grandfather's coffin was pushed in, but me and my mother just sat at a corner, praying.
I couldn't help it, but broke down. Not that I was sad my grandfather's leaving us, but the fact that I wasn't sure whether he accepted Christ made me feel all worried and .. just speechless. It never occured to me that I would cry that badly during his wake. Others were crying cos they miss him, but I cried because of the uncertainty of where he was going.
My mom cried and told me that she tried to save him. He did make some response when my mother was sharing Christ with him, but because he was semi-concious, we didn't know what his response was, but I guess all we can do is just have faith.
I felt God telling me, to really reach out to the ones around me. I don't want another of this kinda thing to happen again. It really hurts to see your loved ones not getting saved. Thank God my mother had the chance to share with him in the hospital. I don't wanna regret when things cannot be undone anymore.
So I spent my whole morning and afternoon there, before I went off to church. I didn't get to go for section dinner with the rest, so sad. But I went to do my tags for camp tmr! Woohoo!
Rushed back to the funeral wake after that and stayed till 12 midnight before leaving. Tmr's gonna be the same again. Church camp tmr (: I really hope and expect to see something change in me from this camp (:
Anyway, I was helping my mother count the money from those visitors who come and pay their respect. Yah, I don't exactly know what it's called. Hmmmm.
And I was looking through the list of people who came and pay their respects, got quite a few cute name ah. Hahaha, like Hei Gou, Ah Lian, Botak, Pancake.. All my relatives' friends. Super cute name, I couldn't stop laughing when I saw that. Haha.
And my uncle was trying to tell my aunt to write down the person's name, who came and gave some money too.
Uncle : -in madarin Eh! Write O-Jimmy.
Aunt: -raises eyebrows Jimmy Oh?
Uncle : NO! O Jimmy.
Aunt: You mean, Oh, Jimmy? ( the oh meant, oh i know, that kinda oh.)
Uncle : NO LA. I meant, LAO Jimmy! (LAO = Old in chinese)
Super funny. He can't pronounce oh-elle-dee. HOHO. Super cute.
And yay! I got the picture of my little cute cousin! HOHOHO.
I wanna adopt him as my little brotherrr!
