hm...

Well,I have nothing better to do so decided to post something.I went and helped out to clean up the new home for Agape Shelter yesterday along with members of the leo club and some aunties and uncles.This new house is huge!It really is HUGE!3 storeys with a bsaement,10 rooms,5 toilets and a living room as big as a hall!!!!It used to belong to Dato Teoh smtg smtg and his family which was a very big and famous family in Kluang,I think...

The house was left empty since year 2003 and was ransacked by thieves.When I went in,the mess was..er..I don't know how to decsribe.So we cleaned and cleaned.At the same time,we discovered lotsa letters and also belongings of the past tenants.Everything was left there,the old pictures,letters,documents and etc.So we kind of uncovered quite a lot of family history there.Haha..

It seems that they did not bring all these with them when the tenants left,leaving behind almost everything.They were alsow letters and cards written by wives to husbands,children to parents and even letters to Tunku Abdul Rahman!How cool is that?!There was also lots of pictures,lots of memories.We seems to be able to picture how life was like when the tenants were there as most of the furniture and belongings were left there.It's kind of a pity as everything was left behind and now the family is all on their own..as in..not living under one roof anymore.

Well,we did quite alot of cleaning but there is still more to be done.Anyone wanna volunteer perhaps?

p/s:the house is kinda eerie too..haha..:P
