Weekend

*sighs*. at last, it's friday. didn't have a chance to blog at all since monday, or at least, i'm too tired to do so at the end of each day. anyways, let me start from monday. hmm... let me see wat happened on monday. oh ya! on monday, in school, we (students) skipped assembly but announcement said that it was going to be replaced by another special assembly on tuesday. some occassion, i think and the school announced that it was happening malaysia-wide. all the schools are goin to have this same assembly. but, whatever. plus, i read in the newspapers in the class about an article. it was about blogging. u can find it on Monday's STAR newspapers (20-06-2005). on the section STAR Two, i think. well, it seems to me that blogging has been achieveing world-wide recognition and still growing. the article featured four local (malaysian) bloggers and their blogs. one particular guy that i remembered was the handicapped guy. from what i remembered, he's story was that he couldn't walk and he wasted the early years of his handicapped life. and one day, he came to know about blogging, and he started a whole new life there. blogging each day of his life, raising awareness to the world about handicapped people. it's really touching and quite inspirational to me. it made me realise how much blogging can change someone's life. it's really cool. to me, blogging is like my own space. a place to pour my sorrows, anger, happiness and simply, just writing. i think that the government is taking the right action to raise blogging awareness. this could be a place where people could "let go" and thus, could eventually, prevent suicidal cases, murders, and other crimes. people should know about blogging!!
and on tuesday, in school, when the assembly should've taken place in the morning, it was postponed to next week, due to rain in the morning. me and my bestie was already in the middle of the field waiting for the assembly to start, but then, it started raining and we ran back to class. and after our recess, we got a little treat. we get to skip History class because all the Form3s were all called to the hall. when we got there, it was already packed with other 3rd Formers. by the looks of it, it was a Mini Education Fair where there are alot of handouts and brochures to promote a particular school. it was ofcoz, organisesd by the school. but anyway, it was fun. it was like a take all u can kinda thing. alot od brochures were displayed on the tables of different stands, bearing the name of the different universities, colleges and institutions. the Singapore Education stand was the most successfull one i must say. they were handing out thick books on Education Guide and free pens to us. so, being a typical m'sian, ofcoz it drew a croud . who doesn't want free pens?? at leats a free book?? LOL. it was fun, going around the stands, collecting brochures and stuff and sumtimes even getting a double. LOL. school ended with choir practice on tuesday. i was invited by khang yang to join the choir with him. i thought if he was in it, it might be ok for me to give it a try. so, i went for practice. not exactly welcomed in that place. and at night, we went up 2 grand's to celebrate my uncle's b'day. got some kind of reunion there and we had dinner together. kinda fun. and as usual, i sweat my ass off with badminton again with fellow cuzins.
wednesday, was a scary one. nothing unsual happened in school. none that i can think off. hmm. after school, when i was at home, on a usual lazy afternoon, i was getting my job done that my sis gave me. it was to search for the listed lyrics by her friend and to print it all out for her. i was doing it and got into it. LOL. and at about 5.30pm that day, i got a call from my uncle(not the one that i celebrated his birthday) saying dat my grandma was shivering and he asked us to get her to the clinic. so, we rushed to her house, and nothing made me prepared for what i was going to encounter. as i went in her room, she was sitting on her bed, shaking vigorously. and as she turned her face, it as white as sheet. and when i touched her hands, it was so cold. man, it was scary! i got the shock of my life. i never seen her like this before. scary! ans i prompted my dad to called the ambulance, which he did. and my dad had to leave for work, immediately. Akak was rubbing grandma's chest and my uncle was rubbing her fingers to keep her warm. and as i waited for the ambulance, all sorts of thoughts ran through my mind. i was so scared and i was so worried that it would be her "time". it was really painful to see her like that. i felt so useless at that time. i began to cry and cry and cry and cry. i had nothing to do. i kept praying and praying hoping that she would be ok. and after a few minutes, her facial colours returned to normal, and she stopped shaking. her heat returning to normal. i got a lil bit relaxed and the ambulance arrived. i followed her to the hospital with akak by my side all the time. at the hospital, mum greeted me and akak, and grandma was attended to immediately. the doctor told us that she might have pneumonia and she her lungs was infected and she was having a high fever. she needed to be admitted, so, we admitted her. and everything seems to be returning to normal. i left the hospital later that night. and as i got home, the only relaxin thing that i was looking forward to was to read my harry potter book. and i went to sleep after that with a heavy feeling in my heart.
i awoke on thursday, and it was alredi 9.30am. i skipped school i guess. same goes to grace also. i had to fetch edmund for his tuition class. and after that, grace, me and akak went to the airport to see akak's sister's departure. her sisiter was going back to indonesia. her departure was quite unusual, adnd was quite in a hurry. she left so fast that we couldn't even take a picture with her. and her employee seemed to have no feelings at all to see her departure. she was more to chasing her to get on the plane. akak was quite pissed off by that. but then, we had breakfast at the airport before leaving for home. and later in the afternoon, me and akak went down to the hospital to visit grandma. she seemed pretty ok. me and akak stayed there till mum showed up. we had dinner and stayed with grandma for an hour or so, in the hospital till the guards came to chase us out. so we went back, leaving akak with grandma only.
and now, on friday, as i'm writing this, i'm skipping school again. took the initiative to come write here. akak just got back form the hospital. and dad's going to work alredi. i also just got news about grandma getting her operation and stuff. hope she's allright. edmund's having lunch and preparing for school. grace had gone to school. and i haven't even took my bath yet. so i guess i'd better stop here. gtg.
