my late grandmother


the day started early today. received a call fr s'pore. my grandma passed away at 1 am. this is what i hate about being away. but i am glad i managed to see her for the past 2 years after not seeing her for 6 years. in my hearts of hearts i know she is in a better place.

i miss her tarts. she made the absolutely deelish tarts i have ever tasted. she used to make one whole biscuit tin for me alone. till today, i haven't found any tarts that matches hers.my aunts used to try to kid me n pass off theirs for hers. but no way. i used to be sooo choosy about tarts but since she stopped making them, i do eat others but definitely not in the quantities i used to. yes....she loved to cook. she used to make sure we ate before we went out. in those days, most things in s'pore was not halal so she was scared we wud eat outside.suffice to say, i wud put on wt everytime i go back to s'pore. 1kg/week!!

when i was in uni, she started to have hearing difficulties.actually, we used to say she had selective hearing. she cud communicate w her grandchildren well.

everytime we went back for raya, as soon as we reached the carpark we can see her in front of the window waiting for us. she even did that when i went back every weekend while i was working in jb.

all the memories i have of her have come rushing back. i wish i cud see her one last time but unfortunately that is not possible.i am glad tho that nazeefah managed to meet her.

i miss her soo...
