Great Uncle

Internet in the office has been down since last week. So, I can't go online to chat and stuff, but good in a way, I can fully concentrate on my work and wah, I've managed to complete a lot of work until today. Tho, sometimes still a bit bored halfway between work coz no internet.

Hmmm...my great uncle in China passed away last week in his 90's. Feel so sad, but I trust that he's with the Lord. I never met my great uncle but I always send him christmas cards, chinese new year cards and photos of me and my family. When I was younger, I used to send him hand made cards. Last Chinese New Year, he sent me a card back and wrote a whole lot of chinese that I had to ask Tracy to read and translate. I only spoke to great uncle once on the phone, and I heard him calling my name out loud and spoke to me in hockkien, which I can't really respond to coz I'm not very fluent in it. Ahh...so sad, I can't see great uncle before he died, tho I did wish I could visit him last time to meet him at least once. So, I guess we'll meet in heaven one day.
