this cny was pretty one of the 'goodest' in some time, family relations wise.it might be that cos grandma is now staying with us, i feel closer to my family cos i feel obliged to make more time and stay home with grandma.
it might be that i've just shifted house, and this year most of my relatives would come over and stay for hours, until previous cny where they'd just have reunion dinner, watch a little of the telly then go off.
it might be that this is probably the first year i've seen my grandma's siblings and the whole extended extended extended family(thus more more angbaos. ha!).
i feel so lucky that i've all my 5grandparents still alive with me. i saw my maternal grandma on chu yi. we've never been any close. but still her eyes lit up, which looked so foreign on a thin frail body wrecked by stroke and kidney failure and diabetes, when she finally recognised me after staring a long while; and while keep repeating those 2 words 'chin swee chin swee chin swee', i know it meant so much more.
bittersweet.
anyway, my photography-novice brother requested me to 'model' for his practice.
after 2 hours(which halfway through it, he started to make it sound like i was the one requesting for him to take photos for me! *tsk.) and some color editing, these are some of the best ones.









ok that's enough narcissism for today. the rest another day when i'm less sleepy. night world. =)
