Haha! Chinese NewYear is O-V-E-R, not officially but basically lah!
yayness.. except for the joy of meeting up with relatives and for the hongbao money.. i dont really see the point of CNY, think ppl just blindly follow the traditions without considering its true meaning.. owells
didnt stock up for CNY this yr except maybe theres tons of food at my house.. mums been pretty busy with work so we rarely get to go out and buy CNY stuffs like last time. sigh!.I didnt really felt the CNY ambience anyway.i remember we used to like gather at my grandma's house every year (quite a big thing) but now that grandmas not around anymore.. CNY is like weird and non-significant anymore. i remembered looking forward to her $21 hongbao money (she always gives this amt with a $1 coin-haha).
anyways we went for this laksa steamboat at Tanjong Pagar for the Reunion (only our family though), wanted to get the revolving restaurant at Primas but we were too slow in our bookings.! i'll go there someday, my parents said its super nice. lols.. and then..of course, like most of the years, we foolishly went to squeeze with other ppl at Chinatown, sweaty molested fun lah..

Excited for food lah

The Laksa Steamboat
with the superrr nice pork . and damn thin!

the chicken there is DAMN nice.. but i didnt have time to take it cause everyone is like snatching it.. gotta get my share before its TOO late!

At Chinatown

The Usual Groceries. i was trying to a capture the hustle and bustle but looks like it failed terribly.. hurhur
NewYear's First Day: we went to my dad's parents' place, and my granny and grandda are like superrr funny.. like the old people kind of funny. granddad was like laughing cheekily to himself when he receives oranges and hongbaos from his kids.. superrr funny.. oh and their dog is damn cheekopek keep smeelling ours' butt. too bad, he got his ass kicked like shit! pheephee is superr fierce..! :)

Their dog, "baby" who got his ass kicked!

she keeps kicking others' dogs asses, even at this distant relative house :)
rock on babe
After dad's parents place, the mum's side gathered at my 2nd Aunt place, i dont remember much of it except there was some gambling and i slept through the whole thing in the son's room, dead beat. THEN, can u believe it, we HAD dinner at the Laksa Steamboat place AGAIN! speaking of which, THE MARINA SOUTH STEAMBOATS are GONE lah! AS IN that place is like totally demolished and god knows what they'll do with it.. there goes the sec school days memories man, and the cheapo steamboat, now we gottaaa like PAY... :(
Chinese NewYear 2nd day: most of the mum's side gathered at my Godma's place (the eldest sibing of the family) and we just slogged away the day before heading to some distant relative place WHICH WE DIDNT GET HONGBAO and then a sumptuous dinner at some idunnowhere place haha.
Basically, its quite boring although the meet-ups were interesting, some gossips among the cousins, some updates of whos attached and whos not.. whos ugly and whos not, whos fatter and whos not, thats the fun-est part i guess.. and lookin for place to dine was superr tough since everywhere is like CLOSED. but thats new year i guess.. see? another CNY passed, and we're ALL turning 21 (likeomg)
I feel terribly helpless cause i didnt celebrate MZ's 21st with her! we spent each others' birthdays EVERY year for the past 8 YEAAARS! i cant remember the 1st present i bought for her, but i do remember the panda night lamp they bought for me (haha). supperrr long ago. and it looks like the 3 ladies wont get to celebrate each other's 21st this year in the end, cause sams away, then i'll be away too.. WHAT A concidence it is the 21st year we all miss! sigh! But, im thinking like getting a memorable thingy for each of us like an identical LV wallet! OMG! im so rich huh..NOW IM BECOMING A LOUSY FRIEND then again, ive never really been a good friend especially in thiskinda stuffs. BUT I WAS never LOUSY okay! :( anyway, still wanted to wish her superrr great 21st year, and i hereby bestow upon YOU MZ that all your wishes shall come true, except those that u cursed me.. ahah! dont bedek, i know u secretly curse me.. hurhur! i promise you a super big present kays FROM STATES!
So I spent MZ's birthday day rushing my biopsych essay and i thought the end product SUCKED. sigh, my bad. schools moving wayyyy too fast :)
I wonder whether SAMHO has received our newyear card YET, been quite a while kay, i just dont have the luck with hotmail as well as postmans!
