What a gathering… What a reunion… What an irony…

In fond memories, my colleague, friend, mentor - Janice Shiau
 
“Think on the more positive side, she didn’t suffer at all”… “Well, at least her loved ones spent the last dinner with her”… These are what most of us thought when we came to know about Janice’s sudden demise. Ever since she left the country station for her new role in the regional office, we hardly get to see or speak to her. But there are also times where we found time to share a quick chuckle, ask about one another’s doing, or even a simple smile to ascertain one another is doing ok…

It was too sudden a shock for us all… She was only 33. She left behind her hubby, her mother and her daughter of 3, whom like her - is the only child in the family. Heard from other colleagues that she recently went for a medical review and it stated no sign of illness.

So what happened? This was what the colleagues managed to gather…

She was out dining with her hubby and uncle last Sunday night. Everything was ok as they drove home. The moment she started to alight from the vehicle, she simply fainted and her body went completely limp. Body fluid just discharged itself automatically from her body… Within minutes, she was drained of colors. Shocked as he was, her hubby rushed her to the hospital immediately but it was a little too late too soon.. Janice is gone.

Doctor’s preliminary dianogsis to be heart attack. They sent Janice for autopsy and actual cause of her sudden departure could only be affirmed 3 months later. Till then, we would all still be as puzzled as could be…

Several colleagues, ex-colleagues and friends were at the wake as I attended it too at the next day…

It was Janice’s birthday…

November 01-16 ~ Lion

If you are a Lion:

Quite contradictory to your name, you are a peace loving person. You best try to avoid a situation wherein you are required to fight. An outdoor person, you dislike sitting at one place for a long duration. You are a born leader, and have it in you how to tactfully derive work from people. You love being loved, and when you receive your share of limelight from someone, you are all theirs!!!! Well, well… hence some people could even take an advantage, flatter you to the maximum and get their work done. So be careful…..

~~~

Took me quite a while to find this song… Finally I found it!

Lauren Christy - The Color of The Night

You and I, moving in the dark. Bodies close, but souls apart. Shadowed smile, secret unrevealed. I need to know the way you feel. {Chorus: I’ll give you everything I am, and everything I’ll ever be. I’ll put it in your hands. If you could open up to me oh. Can’t we ever get beyond this wall.} ‘Cause all I want is just once, to see you in the light. But you hide behind the color of the night. I can’t go on, running from the past. Love has torn away this mask. And now like clouds, like rain, I’m drowning and I blame it all on you. I’m lost, God save me…

{Chorus}

‘Cause all I want is just once, to see you in the light. But you hide behind the color of the night.

{Chorus}

‘Cause all I want is just once, forever and again. I’m waiting for you, I’m standing in the light. But you hide behind the color of the night. Please come out from the color of the night.

~~~
