It was Halloween last nite!

gosh, i din realise that it was halloween last nite. not that i celebrate halloween, but i told myself last year that i would buy some costumes for my kids to wear this year, looks like i have to KIV this.

well, u ever realise there was something every Halloween? in god knows which year, 31 Oct, SQ 006, last year, on the nite of Halloween, there was a horrible accident at Simei, near the Changi Hospital. apparently, 8 were involved, 4 killed. i remembered it cos the next morning on my way to school, there was a jam which was not likely to be. then u see all these blue flashing lights, white cloth, blue tapes....

then yesterday, the body of Huang Na was found! gosh, halloween is sure creepy, juz like our Chinese hungry ghost festivals. read the newspaper this morning. the poor gal was naked, stuffed in a box. it was an attempted murder. the Took guy was arrested for murder.

i just feel that as humans being living on earth, we try not to kill or rob or purposefully go and assualt someone. i strongly believe in retribution. you do evil this life, you'll get your retribution next life. that's y we try to do good this life. rewards? well, just think of it this way, you may not get rewards now, (it's never immediate or instant) but perhaps later in life, or even your children/offspring may benefit because of your good deeds.

we are living in an instant world. instant prizes, instant noodles, instant mash potatoes, instant soup (i'm guilty of all these, have a whole lot of them in my mini pantry) so naturally, we are accustom to instant rewards in life as well. but it does not work this way lor! i remember our elders once told us, last time to buy one tv, they have to save so long to buy one. but now, u want one tv, just pay a little deposit, and wola! u have a tv sitting in your living room. u get the goods first but pay later. this is a bad world!

I am very sad to read about it too....guess her life is short but she did touch many especially the hearts of Singaporeans. So here you are....we are humans too. We have heart to feel for this little girl and her mother.
This is life for some....it beyond us to change the fate of our own and our love ones. Can only pray pray that her soul be at peace so are our own too.

Guess in this world of ours, we have to take the good and bad. No choice at times and like Huang Na....too bad that her life is short and her death is horrible.
Yes! times have changed then again we can only do our best for our own and our family.
