Three things about the funeral...

It was a lot more intense than I thought. I tried to use the "Puss in Boots" technique: "I cannot cry. You...cannot...make me...cry..." Eventually it didn't work. Especially when hearing grandfather's voice singing... I think I took it harder than I thought I would.

Apparently all the family members were there, but as family members, most of them are strangers to me. My parents didn't really want me to know these people before, I guess, being such a dysfunctional family.

The cemetary was really high up on the slope of a mountain, and it was very windy and raining.
