last of cny

had the last of cny during the last weekend...

with a stayover in my uncle's house in Msia on Saturday..

(my first time there and first time to msia via car)
i had my FIRST setting off of FIRE CRACKERS over there which i missed out last year!!!

shot mini fireworks into the sky and crackled the explosive loud long traditional bright red firecrackers that woke the whole neighbourhood up i think! hahah

whhEeeee SO FUN!! so exciting coz it's my first time la..
i think after a few more times it'd be like noise pollution coz they just go off so loud and deafening to the ears! haha

got spinning colourful lighted crackers.. soccer ball looking mini bombs.. canon sticks that shoot mini fireworks into the sky.. hahahha :)

had a whole night of CRANIUM family edition! i suddenly feel like going settler's or minds cafe to play more games. haha.


***********
and rounded up the CNY with a visit to LUOHAN AIREN's house! :)


thanks to luohan's mama who was SO COMICAL coz she leaked out the "surprise" by kept asking us when we're gonna CUT CAKE for xian n huiyi - the feb babies.

oh well. no surprise! :(
but it was still a yummilicious cake and a great time of huiyi's fav name game,

and beng's Texas Holdem pokeR.. and taught them the newly invented JAcKpOt game by my cuzzies! hahaha that's the most boliaO game ever but u must admit it's hilariouS n super fun k!! created the most laughter one lor!!!

we watched STEP UP on DVD thanks to caro! i watched that in US and now i can't wait for STEP UP 2 to come on screen! :) wheeee!



and now

after CNY,
life will be back to stagnancy (is there such a word?? haha)

but im glad to have such peacefulness and equilibrium.
serious, other than labbing. nothing much can bring so much ups and downs in my life now.

1.5more mths.
and the contradiction. yadah yadah.

im so sick of thinking abt fyp, answering abt fyp and getting miserable over fyp and sad over this period

and i'm having pre-grad jitters.

i wanna stay in NUS but i dun want fyp!! sigh

to kailyn: hehe! thanks!!! i'll seee u soon k! how was japan?? where's my souvenir? HAHAHA

even my most hated pig's liver was delicious! :) my first ever try to eat SO MUCH liver! haha





then biaojie jioed my bro and i to go watch AH LoNg before congregation at xiaogu's hse!

wah the msian chinese drive me MAD man.. i can't take their accent seriously. but he's damn good at imitating!
几难听一下!!!

and mark lee can totally succeed xie shaoguang in acting gay. he ROCKS man. hahaha
the show was SUPER hilarious.
i think its funnier than 881!
and less lame than 881 tho the storyline also abit off! hahah but not bad la. if u haf too much time to spare and want some laugh (provided u understand dialect)



TUESDAY was PriSciLLa's biRthDay!!! :)

happy 23rd birthday girly! had our usual chem gang celebration and presentation of a well thought lovely gift! - sexy lingerie from la senza! hahahha
cud see that her hubby, bran was more happy n excited than her over the gift la! FIRST TIME he kept so quite and all RED like tomato! hahhaha waiting for gina's PICTUREs now! haha


WEDNESDAY
was a little dinner with abeli! last minute with some nasty hiccups in the day coz of lab but it was a great break from shittiness! i really missed the ikea meatballs. and thank u for the treat bro! :) nice catching up!


and TODAY's VALENTINE's DAY!
so i fulfilled my date with sokchin to watch...


it was a sobby show. i teared from scene one to the end.
so touching. so sad. so loving.

abit impossible to have such a sweeet guy.. but im glad i watched the show. it made me realise what i exactly want. esp after some bad news that i recently got hold of that hit me down quite abit.. i suddenly realise that i deserve better. back to the dream come true and dreamy self of mine in search of my prince charming on a white horse! hahaha but this time round, my eyes will be bigger and sharper and more accurate! hahaha

and as the mum said in the show,
something like it's not easy being alone.. but with other people who are alone too, we're all in it together! :) somehow it resonates with me the most in the show i guesss. so my dear frens who are still in search of the one, we can hang out together! just give me a ring! hahaha

BUT that's NOT the best part of the show.

TONIGHT is a MEMORABLE NIGHT.
coz it's me n my date's FIRST TIME STEPPING into THE WRONG THEATRE
and MADE A FOOL of ourselves!!!!
GOSH
caused the people whom we took their seats to make a commotion.
double checking our seats and got irritated by the people who made the commotion thinking they are in the wrong...

and u noe what's worse. there were SO MANY SIGNALS before that telling us SOMETHING was wrong n yet we chose to ignore. 2 dumb asses.
hahahh hilarious.


FIRST TIME SO MANY PEOPLE LAUGHED at US la!
or at least i dun recall having so many ppl laugh at me!
malu like siao la!!!
almost the whole theatre KNEW we were in the wrong show coz it was SO QUIET.. the show was abt to start and it was only then we realised how stupid we were..

and they all heard our "FREAK WRONG THEATRE" and sc's 4 letter word! hahaha
AND WE went out EMBARASSED with giggles and laughters! wa kaoz!
summore it was a cheenapok show KUNGFU DUNK

heng the theatre was DARK so people can't see our faces.
wah piangs. speechless.

Valentine's Day 2008.
a living memory.
