Though your physical presence is gone forever, you'll always be in our hearts forever.
"7 days of wake, 6 nights + 1 day of prayers, a funeral procession with a couple hundred of people, convoy of about 30 cars, all for a man who fathered 16 children, and has 52 grandchildren, and 30 - 40 (still counting) over great-grandchildren." — Catrina Luo Kaiqi, Cousin
Tears rolling down from everyone, people I seen crying for the first time, getting our eyes sored from tearing. A man who fought hard all the way from China. I heard from my uncles that grandpa was once a rich man from selling rice after the Qing Dynasty period, distributed rice to over 100 people in China and helped them get the Chinese citizenship. A man who helped more than 100 people. A selfless man who care about other people more than himself. A man who have 2 wives and fathered more than 16 children, forming a family of over 150 people. A man who received more than 100 flowers and blankets from people all over Singapore. A man who have people from all over the world praying for him. A man who have more than 500 people attending the wake. A man who have the cook says is the largest funeral the cook has ever attended.
This is the first time I ever seen my grandma and all my grandpa's children (1st uncle, 2nd uncle, 3rd uncle, 4th uncle, my dad, 6th uncle, 7th uncle, 8th uncle, 1st aunt, 2nd aunt, 3rd aunt, my gu ma, 5th aunt, 6th aunt, 7th aunt and 8th aunt) cried. This is the first time I seen my uncle/aunt spouse (1st uncle, 2nd uncle, 3rd uncle, 6th uncle, 8th uncle, 1st aunt, 2nd aunt, 3rd aunt, 4th aunt, my mum, 6th aunt, 7th aunt, 8th aunt) cried. This is the first time I seen my cousins cried. This is the first time I seen people I've not seen in my life before cried.
And the end lasted less than 5 minutes...
The 楊 family will remember you forever, ah gong (1917-2011).
INTRODUCTION
Hi (:
I ♥ clubbing, shopping, and sleeping.
I'm someone who doesn't take the first step to say 'Hi' to others.
I don't take initiative; which is why I'm kinda anti-social, and emo-looking, which I'm obviously not.
I'm quiet in nature, and am also kinda stiff too. I don't talk much, unless I'm super close to you or you're special to me.
I’m not hyperactive in nature, but I will, at the correct time. I've poker face most of the time.
I’m boring when you first know me, because of my ‘introvert-at-first-impression' personality,
but as time passes by, you know I’m not.
My dream is to be a fashion designer, but I know I'm not able to be one.
One of my other dream is to be a pilot too, and I'm really gonna work for this one.
