An Eventful October

Just realised today’s the last day of October. Without realising it, October has come and gone. As I’m siting down writing this post, I can’t help but to wonder, a lot of things can happen in a month.

Firstly, to the ladies who attended Citi Nits last Saturday, I’m really sorry for leaving so abruptly. It’s just that after I sat down and ordered my cup of drink, I received a text from my friend, notifying that a dear friend of ours, Lionel has passed away. I could not carry on knitting and pretended that I was ok. I needed to go home, needed to be alone, so that I could grieve. Attended his funeral last Wednesday with Tian and it was hard for all of us. Lionel was still so young and we just can’t believe that he was gone :( . I guess it’s not really goodbye as I believe we will someday meet again in heaven. Till then, we’ll just have to treasure every single moment that we have :) .

On a lighter note, Tian’s parents arrived last Thursday. It was their very frist trip to Australia. Since it’s the weekend, we take this opportunity to bring them around. Went to Northbridge this morning for Dim Sum and took them to the Caversham Wildlife Park in the afternoon, I guess, from the photos below, everyone seem to be enjoying themselves very much.

Lastly, I decided to cook dinner for tonight. Since it is my first time cooking for them, I was a little nervous. Thank God everything went well and no complaints!! So far so good :mrgreen: .

Lastly, did I tell you that I jumped on the iPhone bandwagon?? :lol:

    The wildlife park looks like a lot of fun – I’d love to see a wombat up close!

    I’m really sorry to hear about your friend – it’s never easy dealing with the death of a loved one, especially someone who is still young. Hope you are doing ok.
