Snapshots: Sri Aman

<--- Amoi, Santeh & Icha

Just arrived from Sri Aman. Took turns driving with Dad. Wasn't really as tired as I expected, maybe it was due to the 'super-power' massage by my aunty Bibi from Saratok. My back is all black and blue. You'd think that I've been dragged, whacked and clubbed all at once. Although it seems very painful (which it is to a certain extent), I felt surprisingly better after the massage.
The 'ngetas ulit' was attended by family and close friends of the family. Fr. Paul conducted the ceremony which immediately after the 'ngetas ulit' we held the 'muai tebalu' ceremony. This marked the end of mourning for my late cousin's wife. It was touching to see her cry as the ceremony was held as she's still in grief but life must go on, especially for her children's sake. It was at this point that I thought about the two little girls and their soon to be born baby brother/sister.

Icha still needs to undergo corrective surgery for her medical condition although her growth is still very slow. But at least she's gaining weight 100grams at a time.
When someone asked her
"Where is your Daddy?"
she answered,
"Daddy is with Jesus."









Santeh (spitting image of my late cousin) is still a baby. Every morning she will ask for her father and she really missed her daddy's touch. She's an adorable baby and when she walks (more like waddles) she looks like a baby penguin. Cute baby penguin.











My eldest cousin Jeffry @ Wat. He is the eldest among us. He could not walk but he is the glue that held all of us cousins together. We like to tease him and he never gets angry at us.











2 teachers and a *err, helicopter pilot?* hehe
The three of us were born merely a few years apart. The two teachers were separated by mere months... Oh, and both teachers are English teachers. Hehe... The two guys are very single and available. Housetrained too. Wahahah
(They are so gonna kill me for this)
