My Bestest 3rd day of CNY

Ya. Just like what the title said. My bestest 3rd day of CNY. A few of us visited the old folks home at Bukit Baru. All thanks to YenMei. Her idea and effort. ^_^ Good effort wei. Being there was worth it. Let's do it again. Hee. The old folks were happy. Very happy. It was interesting watching them. Getting a peek of what life is like over there. One popo was especially generous. She offered us asam and loves posing for the camera. Haha. So funny man. Pictures with Hwei. She'll post it on MGC blog sometime soon.

The old folks enjoy visits. I didn't talk to many of the elderly people. *shy* and sometimes awkward. Manage to talked to this white-hair popo. She mumbles alot. Half the time I couldn't catch what she was saying. But as weird as it sounds, there was a connection. Although didn't understand much of what she said, felt really comfortable with her. Maybe 'cos she looks so grandmotherly.

Before we left, realize i forgotten to get her name and age. So went up to the popo and ask for her name and age. She said she don't know. Erm. I also dunno how to react lar. So I said never mind. Told her we were leaving and ask her to take care. She smiled, held my hand and ask to come again. '...Next time stay over...' ^_^ haha.. Didn't know how to react to that also. So just smile and say OK!

Won't forget passing out oranges to them.. Won't forget the gratitude and thankfulness i felt that day. In a way, in giving we receive.. and receive so much more!

Still in CNY mood la. Can't shake it out. Heh. This really is one of the bestest CNY ever.
