Todae is a wet and wild day and it isnt a good day for tomb sweeping. Went "tomb sweeping" this morning and its raining cats and dogs!!! Initially we planned to visit to my grandma's tomb first, followed by my greatgrandparents', then my elder grandma's (my grandpa got 2 wives but my grandpa only married my grandma after his first wife died during the japanese occupation period), and then my grandpa's at Mt Vernon.
But when we reached my grandma's tomb, its raining so heavily that we cant even burn the incense paper and joss sticks. Haha everything just happened to be so dramatic cos i was literally using my umbrella to protect the incense paper from getting soaked and in the end i am drenched to the skin. Anyway my parents and aunt were drenched too so all of us kinda looked like drenched chickens. LOL. In the end, we decided to go to Mt Vernon first. Luckily it wasnt raining at Mt Vernon so we managed to offer my prayers and burn all the incense paper asap. Afterwhich we went back to the Yio Chu Kang cemetery again and its still raining cats and dogs. ARGH!!! Anyway, went for lunch in the meanwhile hopping that rain will stop and God bless it finally stops.
Was praying to my grandma hoping that she will give me some blessing in finding a job and also my further studies; and my father was like asking grandma to spare us some money so that i can have the money to further my studies since we burned so many incense paper for her. LOL And he even reminded my grandma that the money got to be our money not hell notes. Lame right ya my dad is a born joker. Anyway my grandma is a gentle and demure lady hope she wouldnt mind that lame remark from my dad. Haha
