2006 to 2007

It was a good end to 2006 with my niece being born healthily.

But today wasn't a good start of the year after receiving news that my aunt (mum's sis-in-law) passed away.

She had cancer and was already on morphine for the past six months.

I'm glad each time I went to Malaysia, I would visit her and then wish her well,

Followed by a hug before I left - the last time I saw her was mid-2006.

I guess people come and they go, but it's pretty difficult to get used to sudden departures.

While my mum will be going to Malaysia for the funeral,

I can't 'cause school is starting soon though I hope I can go too.

It's New Year's Day and I really look forward to a better 2007.
