THINGS I WANT THIS CHRISTMAS

Dear Santa,

I have been a good boy this year, so i don't think it is too much to ask you if you grant just some of these wishes this Christmas and beyond:

1. Our new car number strike first prize in Magnum4d, Damacai and Sports Toto whenever i bet on it

2. Our business expand, more and more project to come

3. Get my house back from ex- girl friend smoothly and can be sold at higher price

4. My mother healthy healthy

5. My best friend- TPC stay pretty and happy

6. Pass my Part III exam next year

7. Be happy all the time

Well, that it is all about. Thank you Santa!!

Girlfriend

Saw my ex on my way back from hospital, and suddenly feel kind of relieve.

However, it was weird, really weird, seeing her with her new guy.

Not that I didn't expect her to move on of course. I mean, eventually we all move on. But what I didn't expect is that she managed to do so so quickly. Like, before we broke up.

I guess that goes to show what an easily forgettable person I am. ;)

The surprising thing is that I wasn't as bitter as I thought I might be. At least I didn't storm out in tears and crying to my mommy.

We had our good times and I am content to let those four years we spent together be nothing but memories. Since there is a better man who can take care her the way which I couldn't at this moment, I guess I should feel happy for her. Not to say i am not feeling sad for her leave. Believe me, that was the most painful decision i had ever made and the moment i felt sad the most together with my tears. In life, we just have to know what others people needs and learn to let go something we love and move on to something we want in life.

There is another reason why I am not feeling bitter - I too, have begun seeing someone new as of late.

I am still in the process of getting to know her. She is an American, so I know we have our differences. But the good thing is that we are seeing each other a lot. In fact, over the pass three weeks, we spent almost every single day and night in the company of each other.

Her name is Apple.

Full name Apple I PAD.

Oh yes.

There is nothing I desire more than coming home every night and lay together with her on the couch, hands on her shoulders, feeling her vibration as I touched the screen.

I love you my Apple.

The 522 days since you left us

Dear Popo,

Today is the 522 days of your passing. How are you doing up in heaven? I imagine you must have had lots of friends by now to keep you company. Heck, as I’m writing this, you might be playing cards with wa kong and Micheal Jackson.

Just kidding. But seriously, how are things up there?

Will you forgive me if i tell you i haven't been taking care of Mom very well? her health is getting bad. The pass fews week i have been in a bad situation. I haven’t been seeing Mom very often. She’s been wanting to talk to me, but I’m always hiding myself in the room to recover myself. I try my best k?

Popo, there’s another thing I’d like to apologize for.

I have not visited Dajiu for weeks after his heart operation. , I’m so sorry but I tried. I just wasn’t as good as you thought. I now have no confidence to do things like i used to do. i just want to be myself and try to figure out what's the next step i suppose to take. I have lose confident on trusting people.

Popo, do you know that we have moved to Jenjarom? Didi and i are doing well. We set up a construction company and we completed fews projects last year. We made some money that we never ever thought it would be so much. I have got an offer in new architect firm which the new boss entrusted me a lots. It makes me sad that you were not here to witness these very proud moment and share the happiness in my life.

I was under so much stress in the weeks leading up to the recent broke up with girlfriend. There were so many problems and I didn’t even sleep well for the pass 6 months. As i know that, this is the most important stage in our relationship and i have been silent for some period to see what is going to happen. In fact, i once thought- once it is crossed, it is either 天长地久或曾经拥有.Obviously, it become曾经拥有to me. Love is fragile, and not meant for test.

But, don’t worry Popo, everything is okay now. I believe that with you looking at me, i can overcome all the problems.

I miss you Popo. 522 days on, I still wish you were here. Guess the only way I’ll see you again is on the day I join you in heaven. I’ll make lots of KOPI O for you then.

Please take good care of yourself and wa kong.

love,

your grandson
