Chinese New Year
28th January 2006
Met fer, shahrul and baby to chill out before reunion dinner. Wanted to catch a movie and decided on zodiac. (Don't laugh, there weren't much choices then) It was a retarded show. Some local production and it's really crappy.
Reunion dinner was shit. Before the dinner, sis, dad and mom quarrelled over stupid stuff again. We had steamboat and no one spoke a thing. Everything was silent.
Went online and talked to a few people. And 3 people came up to tell me they were spring cleaning and came across my greeting cards/letters. Then we started talking about the past. Some very heart warming, yet some very heart wrenching. Its sad how the right people always appear at the wrong times. Then it suddenly made me think of the "what ifs". If things had been different 3 years back. If only we've both perservered, perhaps things wouldnt be what they are now. But then again, since we're all happy now. Then it's good too. There's no point looking back and regretting what we did not do or what we should have done.
I like to think that reminiscence is always sweet :)
29th January
I seriously hate CNYs. I hate gatherings. I hate the pretence everybody puts up. I hate myself having to pretend i'm really interested in whatever that is going on. I hate the facade my family puts up in front of the rest. Because we know ourselves, everything is broken.
Anyway, was forced to go for visiting in the morning. Went to visit my mom's godparents. They're really a very cute couple. One 91, another 92. Very loving still. It makes me happy to witness such a sight :) Then after that was to my aunt's place. It's shit. Hate it every year. I left very shortly after to meet fer and michelle.
Went to town, had swensons. walked around and played pool. Anyway, there was this bunch of thais playing at the next table and they are the rudest bunch of people i ever met. When they wanted to shoot, they didn't even bother saying "excuse me" and just shove their sticks right at us. Fuckers. And they sucked at pool.
Then walked over to orchard hotel to look for shahrul who was working till 3am. That area's really not safe at that time. It was where shahrul almost got robbed, and pimped. hah.
30th January
Suppose to go visiting with family again but i went to meet fer, shahrul, baby and yuting. Went to bugis but nothing much's open. so we went to chinatown instead. I bought this skirt with a little Indian print. Fer too. Ahh. can't wait to see that girl in a long skirt. heh :) Walked around, crapped and decided to head to parkway to our usual chillout place. I swear i didn't mean it but i traumatised a kid along the way. I REALLY DID NOT MEAN TO. Anyway, we had fun all the way till 11, they made me laughed till my sides hurt. I love you allllllll :)
31st January (Today)
