pictures from bp06 cny visitation on saturday 9th february



it's simply amazing how we've been religiously meeting up every chinese new year to visit mrs.soh+mr.sim for the past ten years. could we call it a tradition? it's a nice thought to know that your teachers still remember you after such a long time. HEE.

it's the same routine. on day one of the lunar new year, my family drops by to visit my uncle, and on certain years, maybe even not. and that's THE END of cny visitations for me.

others romp around the entire singapore with oranges and eat multiple lunches/dinners with 100001 cousins relatives uncles aunties grandparents and whathaveyous for days and days.
Eg. le boyfriend has a massive family base of (18 uncles and aunties) + (18 uncles and aunties' spouses) + (18 cousins - assuming 1 child per couple)

i'm going to have to sit at home like a piece of bread waiting to grow mouldy.
simply put, cny could possibly be more boring for me that on a usual day.

OMG. how will i survive it this year?
i shall
(1) marry my eyes to the tv
(2) exile myself to dreamland
(3) read a classic novel


KKKKKK i shall not whine.
to all my gambling friends, HUAT!
call me for mahjong people.

************************************************
feb is gonna be fab!

i'm all geared up for chinese new year! new tops new bottoms new undies new shoes new flipflops thanks to my dearest eun & weili, new makeup/acessories/shower stuff thanks to apple, to lishi jiawen keewei, to the cats, the boobear, leslie, to jiawen huiyee keatwee + xingying, to may and i even have very red slippers to wear at home when i play mahjong so i'm HUAT AH!
but after much thought i've come to a realization that......my family doesn't celebrate chinese new year aside from having reunion dinner together and trading oranges for red packets. hence, my efforts to prepare for it are absolutely unnecessary. speaking of which, reunion dinner means added inches to the WASTEline. i shall starve on monday and tuesday.

valentine's day is coming. we've never been the sort of couple to get all hyped up for vday. but just so that we won't frown at each other for sitting at home on a day for the celebration of love, we went for zi char last year.
sizzling hotplate of egg tofu and mucus running down you gotta keep blowing your nose cause the sambal chilli from the stingray and the sambal kangkong. oh and we sipped to lime juice and lychee juice ma.
this year i'm wondering what we could do. maybe we'll have picnic under the stars and sip on red wine (many thanks to lewis :D:D)...................

at the multistorey carpark 10metres away. HAHA!


i have a new board game. or rather card game. it's abit like bridge and pipelines combined. but i have no one to play it with. pouts.
