CNY!

it's CNY! an annual routine once a year. went BL shopping centre's BL raja restaurant for reunion dinner with my maternal side. everything was ok till this s'pore version Zhu Ge Liang came out and was very very noisy on stage. a few tone-deafed women were singing, and the ZGL suddenly became God of Fortune. den he went to every table to give lucky numbers. food very not very good though. steamboat would be better and tastier. den went chinatown for a walk and the countdown. bought lots of foodstuff and waited for the countdown and the firecrackers. IT WAS SUPER CROWDED THERE! wanted to watch the live performance after our McNuggets meal break at mac, but the crowd outside was beyond control. near-stampede situation. somehow i was swayed to outside Lim Chee Guan, and reunited with family and stood there to watch firecrackers. anyway i did not mind the crowd cos there was many many ang mohs there. from US,UK and aust. hahahaha. no more FWs this time, but there's china chinese men. hmph. i dun mind squeezing with ang mohs lah. hahaha. more friendly with them. anyway the firecrackers were great. my 1st time in my life hearing it 'live'. super loud and it made my momentarily deaf! hahaha! and the fireworks were great too. but was blocked by a tree. went home after that.

1st day of CNY! woke up at 1030 and got my 1st ang pao from uncle. den had vegetarian breakfast b4 gg out at 1pm. as usual, went to my mum's real side that family. my uncle's hse at yishun. one-stop ang pao collecting. very very boring there. veryyyyyyy. not on talking terms with my cousins there u see. not close one. den we left for my paternal grandma's hse after a very delicious lunch at that uncle's hse. traffic jammed very badly till tiong bahru. another one-stop ang pao collecting station. and i realised i really resembles my dad. or rather his side. haha. thin and lanky (heh.) . and im one of the tallest there! im taller than all my uncles. hahaha. very boring also. very very boring... stayed for 5 hrs there. anyway dinner was great too. hokkien lunch, cantonese dinner. hehe. yummy. lotus soup, abalone with vege, prawns, steamed fish, fu yong eggs etc. yummy yummy. rotted in front of tv most of the time. and den came home at 9pm. lidat lor. 1st day gone lidat. going uncle's condo tml and my grandma's hse. more ang pao. whahaha. got 25 ang paos today. =]

I SAW MR. MIYAGI THERE! couldn't believe my eyes. wanted to talk to him but i didnt dare. so i aimed at an ang moh lady in front of him. an expat's wife from UK. talked for abt 1min and i went cold storage to find sher (miyagi is her fav blogger u see) and she immediately went to cofee bean with me. sat beside hiim and qi sort of spoke to him. hahaha. didnt managed to talk to him in the end. so disappointed with sher. hahahaha. oh. we went eskibar after that. with only the 4 of us inside eskibar. not really fun though. that in-charge was wierd. kept following us. anyway the freezer room was cool=]] gin coke was nice, lychee martini not nice. was there for abt an hour or so den went off.

went town with qi and beak after that while sher took cab home. they went to buy CNY clothes. managed to get all their stuff at heeren. wahaha. qi got a le coq white shirt from Check and beak got a puma one. and another one from Everlast. cool. went liat towers orange julius for a drink and we sat there and chatted for like an hour? hahaha. cool breeze. super nice weather. rushed to JE for meepok supper after that with qi. hahah. very nice meepok with iced barley =]]] i nearly got ran down by a @#!$%^& citycab.

went jp after sch today with qi and bought some manicure stuff. manicure service was fully booked at that 3rd level store so we decided not to do it. bought a buffer and sally hansen's nail strengthening polish. and a korean cucumber mask. very nice! napped for like 4 hrs and cooked udon for dinner. muz help clean up the hse tml already. and wash toilet too. no cny mood leh.

CNY Shopping

had great shopping trips this past weekend. ok lah, not so great maybe. didnt manage to get anything in these 2 days. started with gg orchard on sat with qi, jx and yan. kinda moody on sat. and i didnt get a single shit. only spent on food. yeah! great dim sum at swee chun's at jalan besar. walked to bugis after that and shopped awhile at seiyu den took train home.

went town with qi on sun. nonono. bugis first. hell lots of ppl there. imagine there's ppl overflowing at tt junction between bugis village and bugis junction. whoa. tried an Abercrombie and Fitch polo tee but not the right size. and super small fitting room. and den to bugis junction. and shopped around. nothing at all. but qi managed to get a cargo pants from Dorothy Perkins. nice clothes there. den took 7 back to town and went birkenstock shop at wheelock.there's a super bad attitude salesman down there. damn him. had great but sinful dinner at Fish&Co. the last time we got cheated!! kola tonic can be refilled for many times! hahaha.

i like to shop for clothes with one friend only. i mean, with another person only and not with one whole bunch of friends who do not have the same taste. it's time-wasting and temper-boiling for me. when there's only 2 ppl shopping, and with taste about the same, it's easier to shop and one can look out clothes for the other. and wun go missing easily.

anyway. went to isetan after dinner. extended shopping hours till 10.30pm! nice. with very very little ppl in the store, very nice to shop. no queues for fitting rooms too=) tried on a few clothes but not nice. levis also. getting fatter already =(
had Gelatissimo!!! the one from Sydney! wahahaha. friendly staff who scoop mouthfuls to let us try different ice creams. had Veronese Chocolate in the end. nice! took bus home after that. tired.

it's gonna be a busy week i guess. one more week to CT2. and muz shop for CNY clothes. and prepare ppt slides for HRM and BLAW. argh. gotta do CMA tutorial now! byeeeeee.
