...has been really fast for me. I have started collecting data, via classroom observation & interviews. Hopefully by next week I can proceed wth the data analysis. BUT thrz a prob. I'm NOT confident to analyse them! Ok, I'll worry abt tht next week.
...my family received a call frm our relative who resides in Tambunan. Our uncle was admitted to Queen Elizabeth Hospital due to stroke. Tht was on the 7th sept, 09. Elder bro & mum visited uncle at the hospital tht same evening. The next day, eldest bro & eldest sis' turn. At 4.30pm, 09.09.09 we were informed tht uncle had passed away. So, eldest bro & I went to the hospital. My late uncle was dadz 3rd cousin. I remember uncle Jeffrine but I was never close to him. I do remember tht he was around whn dad passed away last year.
How did I feel being in the hospital again? It felt weird. I saw the morgue. I remember when dad was thr last year. It hurt. All the feelings I had last year on the day dad was pronounced dead, came crawling back.
When we were waiting for the body to be released, I was introduced to the uncles & aunties(uncle Jeff's siblings). They didnt remember me, bcs I was still a baby when their family moved. But uncle Jeff & his younger bro, used to visit us even aftr their family moved, so both of them, I remember. I eventually met my 4th cousins.
Mum insisted we attend the funeral in Tambunan. Hence, we were thr yesterday. The requiem mass went smoothly...& I met a few familiar faces. 1 of them used to be my former student. Now I knw, he is my cousin. The funny part was, so many ppl were confused on how both families are related! Well, thx to my Penampang greatgrandmum who got 'kidnapped' by a Tambunan chap, long long time ago :)
Honestly, I'm really glad tht I went for the funeral in Tambunan. The relationship between the 2 families will definitely continue...fingers crossed tht the 5th generation will keep in touch.
On the way back to Penampang, we stopped at TVRC. Eldest bro wanted mum to see the fish thr! Gosh! They were huge!
rm2.50 for a bag of fish food...we spent abt 5 bags!
As for now, I'm back to my routine. Oh! How I feel like eating ABC!!!! ;)
