ever went out shopping during cny?
as always with cny, one eats. and eats. and eats. the amout of eating, it is hideous. the food's really good though, so temptation is everywhere.
one of my favourite dishes...too troublesome to make on a normal day basis, so when it reappeared, everyone leapt at it like, well, fish.
today was catered malay food, our family having fairly eclectic tastes when it comes to meals. that was one amazing (if not highly fattening) lunch. am SO going to miss all this when the holidays are over...vegetarian food becoming an even more unappetising prospect. oh well, its good to live in the present. :)
having guests over everyday (this year my house gets to be much like the HQ, and everyone drops by when they can) this year means loads of cleaning after each party leaves. things just look much better after a good clean (courtesy of my mother).
lunch and dinner being resolved, us younger cousins (there being only 3) went down to town for some entertainment., and i got to meet wj and yh, with her friend and HIS friend. haha, that was just weird. but fun too... (wj is no help in talking to ppl who we dont know, by the way. just a little side note for him there. ha.) we did loads of walking though orchard though; just sitting down at one place becomes awfully difficult when 3/4 of the place is closed, leaving everyone to cram into the remaining 1/4. anyway, here comes really strange fotos of the squids present:
only the same thing he looks at 3/4 of his time awake. wj, just give up the tv already!
and this may not seem like much, but its yh combing her hair with her fingers. gotta love her (hard-won) new colour though, i think it really does her justice.
it was a really good night, one and all...lots of plans, laughter and general entertainment shared. ive forgotten how much i miss you guys.
of to bed for me now.
