this line is very cliche.. but very very true.

thank you 二舅 for baking my birthday cakes for me. and they were all shaped in the number (of years) i was celebrating. those were one of my fondest childhood memories. i always remember being real excited on the day of my bday. waking up then going to the hall to 'check' if u have already sent the cake to my place. pacing ard the house, waiting for you to come over, bringing the cake and well wishes. my excitment when i open up the cake box and looking at the wonderful creation u have given me. me feeling so proud that i had such an awesome cake (for a 7 year old), when all my cousins cld only look on with envy (or at least i thot so at that time).

you were always so cheerful when i see you or talk to you over the phone. always taking the time to ask me whether i eat already? how's work etc. you were always so talkative (in a good way). despite the problems that you faced, you remained so steadfast in your love. always concerned about others, giving my mom so much love.

seeing you yesterday lying there, not being able to talk, really pains me. watching u struggle to take ur next breath hurt. watching my mom break down... 真的让我不知所措. and today... when i received the phone call. i'm just sorry i wasn't there to say goodbye. but don't worry... everything is already taken care of. i will miss you.
