Death is the only promise made to us at birth

Another dead girl.

Just received word that an acquaintance has passed on after being involved in a traffic accident. She was a motorcyclist in a classic case of wrong place wrong time.

Her name is Grace.
On the night of the 17th, she was riding her Honda NSR150 on AYE to Jurong when she self-skidded just under the Normanton Park flyover which is under construction. She fell on the road and the vehicle behind her ran over her helmeted head.

Grace's skull was cracked and the fragments punctured her brain. She died on the spot.

Who is Grace? A young, bubbly
rider that I got to know on a trip to Gelang Patah for a supper some moons back.

She had her whole life ahead of her.
Only to have her existence dissolved like tears in rain.

Lawrence,

Sometimes I just don't understand. Why why why? Why motorbikers want to "risk their lives"? For pure excitement issit?

This case reminds me of a crapper named Leslie aka Dancing Legs. This 25-yo NS regular also died almost in the same way. But he drank abit. He was on his way to his promotion dinner with his NS buddies when the tragic accident happened.

He was flung off the bike, to the other side of the road divider and his head went down, kena hit the road lightbox. He died instantly. Leaving behind his parents and girlfriend.

But thinking deeper, yeah in this chaotic world, anything can happen. I can almost die anywhere! Even right now, in front of the PC! LoL.

Take care dude. I don't want anything bad happen to you. Think of your loved ones. Ahahaa.

Regards,
Alan

haiz..so sad

Life is so full of unexpectations..
We all take our loved ones for granted..We hurt, scold, quarrel, neglect, hate, critise but fail to see that someone whom we love may be gone any min w/o last words. We should learn 2 forgive more, love more & cherish more...

p/s: just in case something happens 2 me...pls pass my msg...
To my family: I love u all...
To Mark: I love u also..
Brownie: I love u too..
Friends: I love u all..
