its been so long since I cried over reading. and though I stayed up till 2+ and practically dragged myself out to school today, I don't regret it at all. though it was a crime novel but Patterson still managed to weave in a lil' touching scene here n there. The nurse who helped many while they fought against illnesses had lost her own battle against cancer. and she was also a loving mum & wife. so yeah there was a small part that said:

She hadn't really left for good. She's just ahead, waiting for you.

I just thought that it was a... very positive way of looking at death. which reminded me of the conversation I had with minshan on MSN just a few days ago. happens the topic of that day was death. we were wondering abt how we would deal with losing someone very close to us. we both thought we will most prolly join them soon after due to heartbreak. hahaha. ok la, I don't want to think about that for now. Cos just a while back I had a big scare cos of Thong Ler and the day's happenings are still fresh in my mind.
