Attended A Wake

Day 54 - 946 days to go

Today is a sad dad for my wife's good friend - Amy and her family. Her mother passed away due to illness at the age of 74 years old. We attended her wake after work, from the original plan of attending GLIC open day organised by Khazanah. Well, either event provide networking opportunity.

GLIC open day will allow us to know about the companies and the people there. It is also a good avenue to look for other information provided by GLIC such as scholarship. One may even get to know some senior management staff on the spot.

Wake is more of a very personal occasion. One will only attend a wake if he knows somebody from the family personally or officially. Not only that, it is an occasion for one to keep in touch with high school or university friend which was last seen many years back. A lot of time, we may even get to know that the spouse of our close friends are actually our friends from another community group. Therefore, it is very important not to offence anybody as you will never know who the person is connected with.

I also learnt about the proper way to learn diving and get certified as a diver. Well, I plan to get certified next year as my schedule is fully filled with activity this year.
