so how did you all celebrate your valentine’s day?
my valentines day was an enjoyable one with my dearest company.

that day,i had tuition. it was a tiring day.but the happy thing  is i finally got my pay!(:(:(:
went home rested awhile and getting ready for him to come.

so dearest sprung up with this lovely little bear and roses for me.(thou i sort i knew he will..he asked me what what flowers i like.and i replied ‘purple roses” which i think is abit too challenging.lol.)

 i super love the bear.the furs are soooo nice to touch!hahaha.and i like those little 满天心。

 after that, we were off to for our dinner date(:

we were supposed to go to friends cafe for our dinner. which i thought was at holland village.so i happily drove there after getting directions from my mummy,finally found a carpark lot, parked and off we go!( sidenote: i finally know how to get to dempsey!lol)

we walked around for like fifteen minutes but cant find the place.goshhhh.and we didnt save the number of the restaurant.we are two goon-doos. then somehow he managed to get the restaurant’s no from some hotline and to my horror, its NOT at holland village but at jelita.urggghhhhhhh.
wanted to settle at holland v.but but somehow we went off to locate jelita which is actually pretty near there.plus the man at the other line was really nice and kind to provide us with directions several times.
(p.s.:i realise such things always happen to us during such days.but lucky we were in very good mood that day.)

AND FINALLLYYYY.we reached friends cafe.(:(:

i pretty much like the ambience.
the whole place were filled with couples. many more came after us.

happily complaining to my sister how foolish we were and got her to book movie tickets for us!
my mum actually called to check if we managed to locate the place.

we both had lobster soup with lemon grass.he had seafood spaghetti while i had roasted chicken breast and leg with white mushroom sauce and rosti.mine was nicer than his!hahaha. 

  

after dinner, we watched Changjiang 7 号!i love the show! i teared when i thought the little kid gonna lose his father.makes me feel life is so vulnerable and we should always cherish the people around us.the little kid acted so welll! and i just heard from my tutorial mate that he is actually a girl!

went home after movie.
exchanged our cards(:

still got music tone.almost scare me.(dont ask me why)hahaha.touched.

in the afternoon, my com hanged and died.it says “system error…” and i cant even get to windowsxp.totally freak me out.):):):
the first thought that came to my mind was “OHSHIT.my photos.my ab214 assignment.my IT ans…” i think my heart was like pumping so fast when i kept restarting for like 1-2 times.and i finally managed to get into windows again.i was like HENGGGG. technology freaks me at times.
AND I gonna back up all my stuff soon.

cny passed by so fast.(thou its still newyear now).reality smacks and its back to work):

.

 -beware: longerthanusualentry-

three days of cny passed so fast!
so its back to work!even more sian.
okay.i shall not dampen my mood.

anyway james bought cookies from the cookie museum(at esplanade there) for my family, which taste dammnnn good! its pretty pricey. we all ate alittle everyday, and the tin is finally empty now.
its not sweet and taste very nice with organic blueberries and macademia nuts.

i am like promoting this.but its really one of the best cookies(or rather the best) i have eaten.hahahaha.

初一

the first stop was my grandfather’s place (: reached there at around 12 and had lunch there.slacked abit and played cards( we all started on nyeve.gamblers.) while waiting for the dragon dance(:
finally they are here.

its abit different this year.this is not the highlight yet.

this is.i was really quite amazed.hahaha. it was really very good.

it lasted for around 30-45 mins.and then we all gathered together to take a photo. 

the HOONS family! some of my cousins were not here yet.i think my family was in a strategic position.lol.

and then it was back to ban luck.and soon mahjong.

 

my cousin is really v nice.she initiated taking a photo of us.and then went to print the photo immediately using her photo printer.and she printed like alot of photos for all the families. 

texas holdem poker at one table and other card games at one table.i lost around $10.and zhao-ed to play “big,small”.apparently, my uncle had got the whole set of it.even the plastic sheet that shows “big”small” and all other odds.its really very fun.hahaha.and i managed to recoup my losses and won quiteabit.yayy.

 

soon its time to leave my grandfather’s house.and off to my mum’s side.felt abit tired by then.alot of relatives over there.after a while, we returned to our house, where all my aunt and uncles came,as well as my malaysian relatives. had a good dinner. and mahjong ban luck again.hahaha.

i enjoyed myself that day.meeting my cousins whom i have not met for some time and catching up. this new year feels better than last year.haha.

初二

 i will do this in my next entry(: cause the photos are with him.

初三

went to malaysia with my family and my aunt and uncles and cousins to visit my relatives  from my mum’s side. and this time to malaysia, i was the driver for the day.(: my mums car and mine.

it was pretty much a day of travelling. went to my relatives house and hanged out for awhile there.

we all look very happy here.hahaha.we were about to throw this thing( i really dont know what it is called actually). its like when you throw it on the ground there will be like a very mini explosion with a loud sound made.haha.its quite fun!

after that, we went off to jusco to do some shopping.had teh at oldtown coffee cafe(something like ya-kun), before heading up to another relative house,and finally settling down at a restaurant at pontian for dinner.

 the restaurant is called “shangrila“,supposedly the best restaurant in the town there.but i think its not really super fantastic. i was really really V V FULL by then.going to explode.

and then we drove back to my relative’s house at johor again.the roads in malaysia are really very dark and scary.hahaha.no clear roadlines.etc.

we went to play with fireworks.

this is like a mini fireball that will spin and spin and then explode slightly to give fireworks.

my malaysian cousins were really very brave.they were so young like 5years old and 8years old.there is one kind of firecracker that is more eruptive. they went up and lit the firecracker and quickly run back. i think i am very timid.cause i dont even dare.haha.then it will spin and then fly up to the sky and burst into fireworks.damn nice!

jammed on the way back.SIAN.and theres this blardy female driver from singapore who is so blardy bitchy.fancy trying to squeeze her way through to my lane by tagging so close behind a bus.and not willing to give way at all when we were so close to each other. so horrible. hahaha.

yes, it was a good driving experience for me i guess.and my mum and auntie keep teasing me and say “drive to malaysia with james since you already had an experience already” i am like “noo.i am just gonna get lost here.”

that pretty sums up my newyear celebration. (:(:(:

its going to be chinese new year! and i am so excited.like finally feeling the cny atmosphere.
and its all cause of the aa201 quiz! which was postponed today, when we were supposed to take the paper just now.hmphhhh.

on a happier note, i had my reunion dinner just now.enjoyed it.my mum was so happily lou hei(see the picture above, its a bit blur thou) and she stood on the chair.so funny.

so busy the whole of today.school. tuition chionged to fetch grandpa and uncle.and home for reunion dinner.gambled(warm up,hahaha) with my siblings and jamesy.and then sent daddy to work.

good night people!

刚才心里好烦好烦。幸亏现在已好多了。

加油慧珊!
