So, I was supposed to make this huge, fun post detailing the one month program I attended in Japan.
However, Monday afternoon, just as my plane landed in the Philippines, my uncle, mom's oldest brother, died of a heart attack in our home town.
I suppose I won't be able to talk about it yet. My mother's practically in hysterics because she's glad that I'm finally home, but she's sad that at the same time, her brother's gone forever. T__T And I lost an uncle who loved to scare all the little kids for fun. His family's coming home from all over the world (wife in Israel as a caregiver, eldest son works in a luxury liner as an ice carver, eldest daughter is a teacher in Canada), but the worst is that, his youngest daughter, my cousin Rincess, grew up without ever seeing her entire family all together at the same time. They were hoping for a reunion next month when his wife will be coming home permanently after all these years, so it was heartbreaking to see Rincess sobbing in front of the coffin saying, "I wanted us all together at last, why did you have to go now?"
