The once a year chinese new year!
Chinese New year Eve (25th Jan 2009)
waited for jiejie to finish work then come back for reunion dinner. so in between ate mummy's homecooked curry chicken and some new year goodies to tahan until 7pm. after dinner went to chinatown wanting to grab some last minute cheap jellies. but in the end the price was still the same. and the parking lot is so damn hard to find. even when we went there by motorcycle.
quite some time since i ate abalone. very happy and satisfied. heh.
i love steamboats!
Chinese New Year Day One (26th Jan 2009)
more steamboat at ah ma's house. hers is the traditional type which uses charcoal.playing cards with cousins. and my that position is so unlucky! i keep on losing money. and this year we play like 50 cents per game instead of last year 10cent per game. hahaha. so if win, win a lot. lose also lose a lot.my beloved sisters. :)they dun wanna let me take photos of them leh. grandma was so busy with her mahjong the whole day. then when she was free i asked her to take a photo with us. then she give me many excuses. but in the end she still got take a photo with us.
the conversation was like this (in hokkien):
ME: Ah-ma come and take photo with us leh.
Ah-Ma: Don't want la. my hair very messy and i very old already don't wanna take with you all young people.
ME: Take la. chinese new year only once every year.
Ah-Ma: but my clothes not nice leh. i go change. then after 5 seconds say dun wanna take with us.
after 10 minutes of persuasion. tadah. we got this photo!
dun worry ah ma, to me you still look nice. :)somemore food for dinner at granny's house but didn't eat it cos was about to leave to go to ah yi's house for dinner. at ah yi's house with mummy.
our own mini gambling at home. i win more at home than at ah ma's house. how weird. heh.

Days passes so fast man! i was looking at the date just now and i realised that tml is my father's birthday and the day after tml is my feimei's birthday. guess i am too occupied with schoolwork that i didn't even have time to realise that. how horrible. i even overslept all the way until chinese garden station today and i still thought i reached jurong east. how funny.

MIND'S CAFE!
24th Jan 2009
went to mind's cafe with siying, jq, siew li and michael on saturday. it was our first time playing the games together there. the other time we went, we only went there to chit chat and eat. it was such a pity that i could only meet them for 2 hours only cos had to go off early first cos i had driving lesson at the bbdc circuit the other day. but the screaming and banging on the table when we played the "ugly doll" was very fun! haha. they claimed that my voice was the loudest screaming. where got la. heh.

siying & jq!
siew li asking for direction while she is waiting for michael.
they have this set combo which consists of: one dessert/ side dish, one cup of beverage, one munchies and 2 hours of board games for 12+ bucks. quite worth it la.
out of so many games, we only played three. i wanna go there again!
this game is so stupid.
playing saboteur. quite nice to play. just that i realised how to play too late.
after no school for 6 days, tml is a school day again. all the deadlines for reports, presentations, interview are all going to come at one go. save meeeee!

Feimei's birthday chalet (19th jan to 22 jan)
20th jan 2009
jiejie came over to fetch me from century square. i spent one hour alone sticking all the stuff into the pdm practical journal. felt so guilty that i made my logbook have the milo stain. haiya, i still like my book to be clean! sigh. we bought some stuff from ntuc cos that feimei keep on saying that the food is not enough. bought the stuff before we went back to the chalet. wanted to buy a cake at first but jie's motorbike not enough space. went to the chalet and saw feimei's friends. didn't know them well so i just walked around and eat my food and watch tv.
the cosy cosy bed.
we had so many many many chicken wings that day.
so sad. i still have to study for my test during the chalet.
amazingly, feimei made me supper that night. but it was a little salty miss your eggs especially.
ended my night with my eyes half open reading the fsm notes and listening to my favourite music on jie's laptop before washing up to sleep.
21th jan 2009
the first time that i can sleep until 7am despite having my first lesson of the day at 9am. i need to wake up at 5.45am if i was at home. haha. first and the last time. cos going to graduate soon. dun think i will have any more chalet before graduation.
half a cup of hot milo and bacon with bread before jiejie sent me to school.
at night when i came,mummy was already bbqing the food and most of eileen's friends left. only two of them still there. wai po, ah yi and uncle came. they cooked the food for me cos i was busy studying for fsm test and preparing for my pdm sensory forms.

22th jan 2009

ZHIFENG'S 2oth BIRTHDAY
was so busy this week. this week was zhifeng's birthday, csas mock interview, there was an fsm quiz, had to rush for the practical journal for pdm handed up on wednesday, eileen's birthday chalet, rushing for the fsm laboratory report which we have to send to our leader by saturday night and there is more stuff to be done by next week also. sigh. chinese new year is coming and there is still so much school work to be done. so irritating. luckily fsm report is almost 3/4 done can complete before new year's eve.
anyway for zhifeng's birthday, we wanted to go eat hotpot culture initally but then it was quite expensive(we have to be considerate towards the poor people like ah qiao. haha.) and quite far cos we have to travel from school to there. then we settled for ajisen. actually ajisen also nothing special but the birthday girl wanted to eat so there we go. so ya.
me and the old birthday girl!
the prisoner and me! hehehe.
ah qiao and manting!
after dinner we continued sitting inside ajisen for a little while longer and chatted to kill time cos it wasn't that dark. If it is not dark, it will not be fun to plan the suprise for her.
went to this park near tampines.
that zhifeng is so stubborn. she refused to let us blindfold her while we prepared the surprise for her. then end up she pull here pull there with xia lah until her shoes spoil still dun wanna let us blindfold her. so wet blanket. but we still continued la just that she dun have to be blindfolded.
a cake for her.
preparation in progress.
tadah. so pretty. if someone make this for me. i will feel so touched. haha.
off to queenstown to meet mom to go chinatown. be back at night to continue for the fsm report. :)
