"I almost died"

Image
There was a heavy downpour the other day, the wind was howling and the sky was glum, showing off it's dullest shade of grey. I looked outside the window at the angry skies wondering if Bob would arrive soon. Trees were swaying, some of their branches gave way and fell onto the cars. A strong gust and a loud thud, I saw one of the branches fall into my porch.  I sighed at the displeasing weather.  Soon after, Bob's car pulled up in the driveway.  He braved the rain and managed to get in unscathed. "I nearly died just now"  he says as he sees me, his eyes widening. "Why what happened?" "A branch fell onto the roof of my car, it was so loud I was sure I was going to die" "Then?" "BAAAAM! It was so loud!  Then it rolled down onto my windscreen and I realized it was this big" he pulls his palms apart. I had actually forgotten about it until we went to his car and I said, eh why is this here? "There!!! that's the branch that

An Atas Dinner In The Sky.

"Hey look they have dinner in the sky" "Wanna go ah?" "Hmm maybe" And then tickets were sold out within 2 days and I was like.. "Maybe we should have gone huh!" "Not scared ah?" "Yea actually I am scared of heights! I might cry hahaha"  ...that's what I would have said but instead I heard myself saying; "No la! I don't think so!

I made a quick trip down to Hong Kong to see my grandmother, I missed her! She's the most active 90+ year old ever. When I first arrived, she asked me if I wanted Milo and of course, she wanted to make it for me. So she lifted this heavy glass jar of Milo from the top cabinet and I when I tried to get it she said; "No, I know how to do. I can!" Most of the trip consisted of that when I would try to help her do things like turn on the light or get up and she's like "You go and do your own thing, I'm okay" then I'd be like "No ma, I got nothing to do, you're the one who's teman-ing me!" She's been doing well! Her leg's doing better (it's been giving her trouble for awhile) and she's walking pretty fast these days.   "Don't walk so fast ma, I can't keep up with you!"  #drama  She even pushed me on the wheelchair, and when I jokingly told her to go faster..she did! O.O! That's when I jumped off and
