It was a wonderful Friday night where some of our closest friends gathered at my god-daughter's house to for a spendid steamboat. The special guest of the night was Cynthia, who flew back to visit her friends and relative from overseas work. It was abt 6 mth when we last saw her, never disappointing us, still as cute/sweet but blurr and lost.. haha
The other highlight is still not the steamboat. It's my god-daughter. Everyone took turns to carry her. As a god-father, I was a disappointing one, haiz.. Cannot even carry her properly and dunno how to pacify her like how all the other uncles and aunties were doing. Cute definitely dun need to say. Big eyes, smooth skin and the familiar crying voice.... but all babies sound the same when they cry, why ah?
Remember almost 11 mth ago, when yan secretly told us that she's pregnant, we were so happy!! The first of your closest friend is giving birth to a little princess in 7-8 mth time, WOW! It was unforgettable, frm the news being known, to the seeing her tummy growing and the things they did for the little precious, to giving birth, the confinement month.. Magnificant!! You cannot understand the anticipation and the sacrifice you would do for the precious!! And indeed, after all those hard work, you see a beginning of a new life and seeing it grow is the most touching things to happen in life..
Just over 24 hours, I also managed to get a piece of news of a new life from another friend. This time it wasn't a happy or touching one. It was a unexpected news of a new life of a unmarried couple. When you always hear these stories on the internet or TV, you just think that it will not happen to ppl around you, but i'm wrong!! Truth is indeed hurtful. They took up the painful decision, there goes. I'm in no right to judge who's wrong who's not, it wasn't quite a choice that the decision was made. Just disapppointment and feeling sad, could only vent some fustrations and forget what has been done..
