after having been spent time with my bro after a while in the country that he lived with his wife and kid; and oh btw, they're expecting again; i realized a lot of new and old things.
a couple of notes of where my bro lives. it is hot and steamy. with lots and lots of people walking around the area. pretty much everywhere u go, u jst need to walk. kind of like new york city, including the subway, but the subway at where he lives is definitely much better than new york.
for the past week, i had a chance to go to places that i never been to. i met people that i had not met for a long while.
a note about the old stuffs that i realized about me and my family is the reason that i was fat. i got a chance to talk with my bro quite a bit. and not only him, but also, with his wife and kid. a lot had changed within my bro. change 4 the better, off course. like some of my friends said, having kid will definitely change u; all i can comment about that is, no comment.
i also got a chance to meet my mom's younger bro. probably one of the relatives from my mom side that i was kind of close. he is probably the one person from my mom side that can really talk to me freely in comparison to my bro and sis. i was really really glad to be able to see him and his wife. he reminded me of my grandpa from my mom. this actually also remided me that i never really have that role model in my life. i was never really close to any grandpas from any side of my family (mom/dad).
we actually went to the ashes burial site of my 'a kung'. after seeing the block with his picture on it give me great flashback of the time that i was able to spend with him. it was fun time. i realized that i actually learnt a lot from him, either from him directly back then (about 25years ago), or thru my mom.
i also went to one of the theme park with my mom. it was one of the oldest theme park in asia i would say. and guess what? it was my first ever visit, while it was probably already my mom's 5th time, maybe?! oh well....
overall, my visit on this third destination was definitely much better than i expected. better in the sense of having the opportunities to spend time with people that i won't get to many times; also, with the people that i had not been in contact, but yet, i was able to reflect and catch a glimpse of things in the past that made me who i am today, and even thru the future.
all in all, i thank GOD for giving me the opportunity to travel to this place. it was dfntly and pleasantly surprisingly great. will dfntly find time to return.
