Getting four cousin sisters together for a dinner is like trying to catch four squawking chickens in a pen at once Everyone’s got work and is so busy (except for the puniest one who is still in uni and complains that calling her at 11am is ‘damn early’) None of us can decide where to eat I wanted someplace we can all catch up and have nice food that isn’t too pricey Already we went to Somo the last time three of us met up in November Takkan Somo again -_-
After blahing online and on the phone, i gave up “Fuckit. Let’s just go to somo again -_-. Headache already la.” “Okay! I feel like Japanese food…”
At first, it was just supposed to be me and JingHua Then i thought, eh better call SmallsMinkyMin too And then, eh gotta call the third sister of course And since four of us in my generation were going, i naturally asked my brother to go too The twins brought their other halves along So there were seven of us altogether
From a bonding two-person thing became… an impromptu 7-person family gathering of sorts
I bounded up to AndrewBNBC for his hug and after a bit of chatting he said, “Okay okay, get back to your family conference!” “It’s NOT a family conference la!”
Nat voiced out we all look the same I protested, having images of noisy cartoon midgets in my head pottering about
SmallsMinkyMin complained that she wanted to be a bridesmaid but how it’s virtually impossible seeing what hopeless cases her older sisters and cousin are Eh, why don’t *you* go be the bride then and do us proud by being the first to tie the knot Scared of not, Gavin? Mwahaha…
Actually i’m glad my cousin sisters brought their boyfriends along… so that they could drink with me
My cousins can’t drink for nuts (cos they’re allergic to alcohol -_- ) and claim i stole all the alcoholic genes
Phwoar. I blogged damn alot one year ago. With i had more time now >_< *click*
It’s So Supersalah
When you discover you are to have an extended family lunch Not by a phonecall from your mother Nor an sms from your father But by reading a comment posted by your cousin on your blog
Salah salah salah! So salah can die
A nanosecond after reading it, i whipped around to ask Daddy “Eh. Got family lunch on Sunday is it?” “…. oh yeah. I forgot to tell you. Yeah, big family lunch.” “… -_-…. i had to read about it on my BLOG okay. -_- “
Fairy Sucker Italy: Episode #2
The tour bus was on a spree to allow the women as much shopping as would make them content (like as if any woman can ever be contented with all the clothes and shoes and bags in the world)
So it took a light break at yet another discounted shopping emporium TourGuideRobert: Ladies, it’s time for you to be happy. Men, it’s time for you to take out your wallets and cry.
I walked around with a dismissive attitude, not wanting to spend anymore money
Obviously that didn’t work out >_< I skipped out gleefully with yet another bag A Coccinelle
Not very well-known Perhaps Coccinelle will be the new Coach Like before J.Lo had it splashed all over her video Around the same price range, beautiful designs, classy and… They have fairies on their advertising campaign
>_<
I know, i know I’m such a sucker See fairies on a campaign and she buys the damn bag?!
No! I digress! It’s because the designs are really nice… honest….
Why are you not believing me?
Their ladybug monogram is so pretty! And if you stare (like i did) long enough, you’d realise that if you combine two backs of the ladybugs, they look like butterflies Well… soddof like butterflies
But apparently i should have just invested in a leather one
Okay, i’ll just shut up bout it now
I somehow lost my appetite for dinner right after shopping (oh right, plus it was damn cheap too)
Me: I don’t feel like eating… like my stomach is bloated Daddy: Its probably all the excitement from the bag -_- Me: No… *unconvincing* Daddy: You know, like how when you take exams, you get lots of butterflies in your tummy Me: -_- Daddy:
I bought some beer to drink in the hotel room Do you see what i see?

Been A Long Time
Since i converted any pictures to B+W I don’t know It’s probably my inclination towards vibrant colour
Two nuns in Rome
Woohoo! Ok, i’ve booked my tix for Bali already! And the resort i emailed got back to me so i confirmed the reservations
Not counting Edinburgh, this will be the first time i’m going on holiday alone (well, i’ll only be spending the first two days alone) I’m so excited!!! *boings up and down happily*
Will be staying with AnnaRina from Adidas on the last three nights Cos WhackyDaph put us both in the same room together over the weekend I barely know her, only for work, so hopefully we get along and don’t step on each others’ toes or something
Daddy: You think you’re some jetsetter is it. After Italy, Bangkok for 8 days, then now Bali. Me: Last one… i won’t have time anyway from beginning of Feb…
ARGH i’m ecstatic, gonna go jump around the room now!
So i decided to go to Bali by myself Since someone ffk-ed me big time Trying not to think about it at all, cos it just makes me mad and works me up And it doesn’t matter anymore right
I’m in a bustle trying to decide whether to go to Bali longer and explore the place by myself Or go for a couple days just for the wedding
If i go longer, which i would love, i have to find out where to stay which is really taking a toll on me cos i honestly suck at finding out things like this (Kevin did all the research on where to stay in Bangkok)
And at the same time, all these work projects i have to complete are on the top of my head Making me feel damn stressed out
A year ago, Joyce found an Adidas + Nike coincidence *click* Two years ago, AlcoJason gave Joyce something that made her hoot with laughter *click*
Messed Up
My timing is all messed up After recovering all of Sunday, i didn’t sleep a wink that night Worked till 10am Monday when i accidentally passed out with my forehead on the computer table Woke up an hour later, feeling really trippy with the sunshine streaming in Worked Decided to sleep at 2pm before i lose it and…
I couldn’t sleep.
-_-
I couldn’t sleep!
Bollocks.
I gave up trying after an hour of Tossing and turning Sighing and cursing
“Fuck man. I’m exhausted. I feel like taking cough mixture to sleep.” “What?! Don’t. It’s bad for you.” *sigh*
Getting nagged does help me shy away from misusing cough mixture
Pottering downstairs to have a fine cut I saw my mum standing at the kitchen sink Turning to her, i was like, “Eh, no work today?”
She stared at her daughter who had lost it “What are you talking about. You saw me leave for work and now i’m back la!” “… Ohmygod… my body clock is all off.”
Was awake till i finally passed out at midnight That’s damn early in Fairyland okay
Before It’s Redundant
I shall blog a wee bit bout my family vacation in Italy
The wine was so cheap in Italy And i had further reason for drinking it… it kept me warm! More evil was, the more you bought, the less it cost Evil, ain’t it?
Say for instance, If you got 250ml, it’d be 2.5 euros But if you got 500ml, it’d be 4 euros
So rationally, you’d get 500ml cos you’d pay 1 euro less for more wine!!!
Or maybe that’s the Chinese kiasu side of me sliding out 0_o
At any rate, i was awfully proud of my brother
drinking beer… drinking wine… Till i asked him, “How is it?” And he answered, “Hmm all also the same. Cannot taste the difference,” before downing it
Almost slapped him sial. Downing wine in front of your sister? Seriously asking for disownment okay.
* The tour group was relatively small, which was pleasant Besides my family, there were 15 other people During a dinner, i was seated across a brother and sister so i struck up conversation with them… somewhat The boy is twenty and studying in Taylors A relevant question would be where he was going to continue his studies at
Edward: Oh, i’m going to Sydney Me: Nice… *cocks head and (idiotically) ponders out loud* … Sydney has the highest ratings of homosexuals in the whole of Australia.
The table is silent for a few seconds before Daddy pipes up, “I think… that’s only relevant if the person you’re talking to is gay. -_- “ Edward: ……… 0_o Me: >_< But… it’s true…
Funny thing is none of the kids really mixed and hung out till our last night in Italy Where we took advantage of cheap alcohol and bonded in the hotel bar
Scared of not, Gavin? Mwahaha…
