MEMORIES
In memory of my best friend Eva Ip who left us on 22 November 2004. Although we knew each other for just six months, we were like good old friends for a long time. We had not met each other face to face or even heard of each other's voice but I already missed her so much. And I really could not imagine how sad and painful for her love one, family and friends when she left. Our friendship started in a forum where she was acquainted to other exotics friends too. Chatting in that forum had become our routine everyday. So sad that the messages she wrote were the only thing we had in memory of her. And these are all what this blog is built from. I hope that these can recall you of her charm, enthusiasm, kindness,..................

Last Message from Eva
What can be in a touch?
Kindness, hope, love, trust,
all of these in just a small simple thing.
A touch, a touch of kindness I pass to you,
take it and pass it to the next.
It might make a difference in the world.
Thank you my friends
Thank you for all the kind thing, you do
the laughter and love along the way
The joy you send each day
Fills my heart in such a warm way
There are thanks you of all kinds
but, none could mean more than this one
Comes from my heart to you all.

Message from Ken
Goodbye, my love,
Must this I really say?
An eternal farewell to thee,
my dear,At the dawning of this day?
Tell me that all my love
Has not been given in vain,
As in a flood of winter
Comes a useless rain.
Let it be more as leaves of an evergreen,
Within the early month of day,
Nourished by the love of Winter showers
And the knowledge they will everlasting stay.
Bid me not say goodbye, my love,
And this, with thee, I plea.
Instead, my dear, a thousand hello's,
Should thee come back to me again.

Our Messages about Eva
Eva,
Words alone cannot express my sorrow for losing you. I don't remember when we first met on the web. You stroke me as a very bright girl. An Aussie born Chinese who could write fluent Chinese. I felt so ashamed. You cracked us up when you wrote your funny Chinese expression and I realized that you are really a foreign born Chinese. I was impressed by your determination to learn Chinese and admired your success.
Even we never met face to face I can visualize that you are a young lady full of life and energy. Your enthusiasm for animals is beyond limits. You are eager to help and you are always there when someone needs a shoulder to rest on.
You reminded me of my college days. My mind was filled with pictures of the rosy future ahead of you until I found out that you had terminal disease. I would not know how I would deal with it if I were you. But in the last few months of your life you were still demonstrating your dedication to life, to your family and your friends. You did not give in to fate. You chose to live a full life regardless of its length.
You leave behind us all the good memories to cherish. If God forbid we would meet in Heaven where there is no suffering.
God bless your beloved Ken, family, friends and your kitties.

每一個人，都追求長生，卻不追求意義，以致人生忽忽數十載，回望過來，茫然一片。
Eva是一個熱心助人、樂天、好學的女孩，或許上天要給她磨練，同時回報給她有好的家庭、學業及朋友。她走了，卻留下很多美好的回憶給我們。生命雖短，但十分有意義。
我與Eva雖素未謀面，但奇妙的命運讓我認識到她，我在彼岸的香港不能為她做甚麼，只能透過禱告，希望Eva能得到永遠的平安，在世的親人能努力的活下去，將來在天家再遇。
很高興認識Eva，因為她讓我看到一個小女孩勇敢面對病魔，不輕言放棄，這比任何說話來得珍貴。Eva，願你安息，他日在天家再遇!
永遠懷念你的貓友Garfieldwing
P.S.或許不需要，或許多此一舉，但我畢竟想對你說一聲…對不起！

世上每日每時每分每秒在不同地方都在發生一些事，開心的、不開心的，數不盡。
人，很奇怪，素未謀面，只因大家擁有共同愛好，就在小小的留言板上建立起友誼。一份可以一起分享興奮、開心、悲傷、感人、喜悅等經歷的不平凡友誼。
在得悉妳的情況後，悲哀、不安的感覺圍繞著。這的確是很難說出口的一種感覺，一種彷彿很陌生、很遙遠，但同時又像很熟絡、每天都見著的。
妳走了。願妳可以在另一個國度，開開心心過下去。妳的離開，帶來了悲傷，確實令人很難過、難受。但同時帶來了一種很種要但時常被忽略的東西。
人，為了金錢、為了工作、為了名譽地位……..而往往忽略了身邊的人。家人的關懷、愛人的熱愛、朋友的鼓勵，遠比任何東西都來得重要。珍惜眼前人，看似簡單，但確實有多少人真的可以做到………
..感謝妳。
他日在那地定可與妳相見。確信，人走後，什麼東西都帶不走，唯獨記憶。
朋友，共勉之。20041123

Eva, a common name with special meaning to all of us. You had brought so much joy to all of us, we laughed, we shared, we cried, it was you that bound us together. Eva, a name we will never forget. Eva, you never afraid of anything, never stop learning and you never stop loving. Your bravery inspires all of us. Your soul will always be with us, inside our heart forever.
Your beloved friend

The sadness of death gives way to the bright promise of immortality.
Lord, for your faithful people life is changed, not ended.
When the body of our earthly dwelling lies in death, we gain an everlasting dwelling in heaven.

Dear Eva,
You told me what is a life,
You show me what is a brave,
You teach me what is a belief.
Your sound is still run around in my ear.
Your spirit is still keeping in my heart.
“I miss you very much.” That’s my favor however it’s my last time to told you.
I know we will stand together again at different time and different place.
Goodbye Dear,
Goodbye Eva,
Goodbye Forever…………….

To The Most Adorable Girl ~~ Eva
Goodbye Aussie's rose;
may you ever grow in our hearts.
You were the grace that placed itself where lives were torn apart.
You called out to our country, and you whispered to those in pain.
Now you belong to heaven, and the stars spell out your name.
And it seems to me you lived your life like a candle in the wind:
never fading with the sunset when the rain set in.
And your footsteps will always fall here,
among Aussie's greenest hills;
your candle's burned out long before your legend ever will.
Loveliness we've lost;
these empty days without your smile.
This torch we'll always carry for our nation's golden child.
And even though we try,
the truth brings us to tears;
all our words cannot express the joy you brought us through the years.
Goodbye Aussie's rose,
from a country lost without your soul,
who'll miss the wings of your compassion more than you'll ever know.
No way to forget the joys and spirits you brought us.
Rest in peace, dear.
One day, we shall meet again.
Sincerely yours,
Penny

Eva, 忘記了與您是於那天相識, 但你曾經說過的說話, 仍然依稀記得
您在澳洲長大, 卻能用中文與我們溝通, 實在令我覺得欣慰, 我樂意改正你的錯字, 因為你的說話經常帶給我們歡樂
每次網上的朋友的貓貓有病, 您總熱心的幫忙, 有時甚至為我們詢問你做獸醫的家人, 我為這些貓貓多謝您
我在您身上感受到勇氣, 愛心, 智慧, 今天雖然我們分別, 但您仍然活在我們心中..........

Eva My Dear,
The day had finally come. Although I knew this was going to happen, this was just far too much earlier than we expected. Too much earlier than I can face.
Why? Why you had been granted with all the best...... but, except health.
You had impressed all those who came to know you with your enthusiasm, kindness, cheeriness, sincerity...... We all treated you as our little sister.
You comforted me once you knew about the bad new of Cagalli while I could not return it as I only came to know about your sickness after almost four months later. You chose to keep all the sad things to yourself and this was too exhausted for such a young girl like you. But I felt really contented you spoke out your worries and concerns to me lately. You said you weren't afraid of dying. Most important was the 'Quality of Life' which I am sure you had already managed one.
Words can't fully describe how you mean to your husband, your family and your friends. And you will always live in our heart forever and ever.
Cecilia with Bowie

Eva,雖然我們從未見面,天各一方,但緣份安排我們在這裏認識.人有悲歡離合,雖然你己離開了這世界,但你的笑聲,你的可愛面容,你的悄皮字句,永遠都留在大家心裡,就當作我們仍是當初天各一方一樣,但其實你仍然存在.......

Something About Herself
Cecilia,Book 左星期五﹐放學後﹐ Marguerite 個groomer 話要睇下我D 貓點先﹐未必比我抱Cagalli﹐不過隔住玻璃睇就應該冇問題。佢話我冇帶D 貓翻去沖涼成大半年﹐要驗驗我D 貓先。你話OK 都唔得架﹐冇得傾呀﹗如果我下次又隔太久唔帶貓貓沖涼就冇免費洗白白服務。比佢鬧左一大輪。同Marguerite 投訴﹐佢話我底鬧。慘﹗我星期五晚先可以話你知睇唔睇倒。我D 貓貓應該好健康。
posted by Eva on 2004-06-08 13:54:52
Marguerite 擋 D 貓 係命根架。我又唔識打理 D 貓﹐佢就叫佢個groomer 幫我同D BB 洗白白囉﹐還掂佢個個禮拜都要同D貓沖涼。不過﹐唔係個個BREEDER 都禁好人。我聽好多都好差架。 MARGUERITE 自己開頭都有比好多BREEDER 欺騙過﹐佢冇話你知咩。
posted by Eva on 2004-06-08 21:45:28
Hello,各位好Grooming 係除左我書本外最想學好的. 你地有冇人自己同貓貓洗白白架? 星期五去 groomer 到羅d料翻來先.唔好意思冇介紹自己添. 我叫Eva 係澳洲留學生 ,請多多指教.
posted by Eva on 2004-06-09 23:29:59
HI﹐我又尼趁熱鬧﹐不過唔參加得你地既PARTY。恨死我呢﹗我有一隻波斯﹐一隻布偶貓。等緊隻異短﹐同布偶﹐HAHA﹐ 上左隱囉。明天起首考試﹐貓友﹐祝我好運啦﹗
posted by Eva on 2004-06 08:27:54
Cecilia,多謝晒﹗我好啤心機啦。係阿等Marguerite d 貓囉﹐ 我都係對佢d 貓有信心d. 我有兩個同學同個好出名既breeder要貓﹐價錢好貴啦﹐差唔多要double d 價錢﹐但寄比我同學果d就麻麻﹐仲要搞到要寄翻比個breeder。佢地而家都寧願等Margueirte d 貓阿。嘩﹗我地米有排等囉﹐要問問我地排第幾先得。
posted by Eva on 2004-06-14 13:54:07
我 最 最 鍾 意 CLASSIC TABBY﹐BROWN TABBY﹐ BLUE TABBY﹐ SILVER TABBY﹐ BLACK TABBY ﹐乜 CLASSIC TABBY 都 靚。 最 好每 樣 CLASSIC TABBY 顏 色 我都有一隻﹐HAHA

Cecilia,嘩﹐拒噤都得﹗我開頭都想同果個買架﹐拒好似好出名和﹐E 隻貓又入口名牌﹐果隻貓又話羅將﹐不過D價錢太貴﹐我翻PART-TIME 好辛苦先草倒D錢﹐點買得起。阿爸阿媽話買乜比我都得﹐動物就一定要自己比錢買﹐噤先識珍式。真係好彩﹗阿爸阿媽唔肯比錢咋﹗ 哈哈﹗﹗
posted by Eva on 2004-06-19 11:17:26
你點樣同D 狗 沖涼架。 我試個一次同女女沖涼﹐比拒走甩左﹐拒仲拗左我男朋友一啖呀﹗林起都好驚又好笑﹐我地似去打仗感﹐著晒泳衣入shower room﹐一開喉淋拒女女就猛跳﹐撞開左對門﹐周屋走。我家姐話我地虐畜。女女仲嬲左我地個幾月呢。

嘩﹗BOWIE 去CAT SHOW 呀﹗佢禁靚仔入更三甲啦。我女女SUGAR細細個時都入5 名內架。不過大大下D 毛水唔夠D 仔靚﹐所以無參展囉。BREEDER 話通常﹐女仔大左參加比賽比較男仔輸屑。SUGAR 一CALL 呢就唔想食野乜制﹐D 毛水就會差D。你地養女女既﹐有無呢個問題呀﹖

Some of Her Helpful Advices
D 假 指 甲 係 比 貓 用 ﹐ 個 網 址 係http://www.softpaws.com都 好 似 女 仔 帶 指 甲 。不 過 好 貴 架。 我 都 認 為 garfieldwing 講 得 對﹐ ( garfieldwing 唔 使 唔 好 意 思 ) 當 然 教 得 到 緊 係 教 啦﹗ 我 都 覺 得 養 貓 點 廳 話 都 會 整 到 D 家 具。 唔 ﹗ 你 都 係 要 想 清 楚﹐ D 貓 仔 第 日 好 慘 架。

你快D 帶佢 睇醫生啦﹗可大可小架﹐會盲眼架﹗

唔鐘意D味阿﹗貓貓靠味覺架。你身上有貓仔D味囉﹗拒唔係凶你﹐係凶D味。輪流交換D被被呀﹐玩具先啦。習慣左陣味就母事哪﹗我兩隻貓都要一齊去洗白白架﹐如果唔係拒地又追主尼打架。因為D味唔同左。
