kids say the darnest things. I like kids so long as they arent whiney, shrill, princessesy, in a tantrum, noisy.
kid: (pointing to the KITCHEN) I want to go to the chicken!
I'm so bored so here's a...
Friday5!
1. What’s a gross food you like anyway?
I used to like fish eyes when I was younger. Well, since you all already say I eat the weirdest food!
2.Who’s an unlikeable person you like anyway?
usually unlikeable person is purely just unlikeable. but sometimes i forgive Edison Chen for his illogical, grammerless talk when I get to the pictures. SOMETIMES.
3.What’s an unpleasant task you enjoy performing anyway?
Ironing. SOMETIMES.
4.What’s a dumb song you enjoy anyway?
the repetitive type. Like how 2 word can be a song. My favourite diss has to be Smoke Machine. smoke machine. smoke machine. smoke machine . smoke smoke smoke smoke machine.
5.What’s a lousy restaurant you frequent anyway?
SMU Kopitiam. I so do not look forward to eating there when school term starts.

jan's birthday
In celebration of jan's birthday at Waraku's & dessert at Island Creamery after that.
Happy Birthday Jan!
As usual we were too caught up with food to take pictures of our food or full body shot of jan in her dress. I've got a feeling I will be having time-to-time craving for the curry kishimen. I love it from the curry to the kishimen to the nikku (beef) thumbs up! it is such a good thing to have friends who are foodies. will be better without the transfat talk though! haha
right now, I'm thinking about Teochew Muay.

baby cousins
2 of my aunties are pregnant, so angel & tongtong will have an additional playmate in their house. Family gatherings will increase by several decibel. 11 children in the house!!!
....
Its the durian season now. just 1 particular day when we were eating durians at home, my mum asked me if times like these remind me of my ah gong (my maternal grandfather).
I LOVE durians and everyone in my family knows that. In the past, when I go back to Malaysia to visit, there would always a big sack of durians waiting for me. In Muar, ah gong would be the one who buys them back. Everyone would gather to eat and even after everyone have had their fair share of durians, I would still be at the kitchen polishing down the rest of it. My appetite for durians was insatiable then. And this story about me will still be brought up every once in a while during gatherings. My ah gong even used to bring in durian from Malaysia for me when he comes to visit.
Now that ah gong is no longer with us, little memories like these help me to remember him by. My brother has his own set of stories regarding him and ah gong.
Since then many things have changed. In the past, there was those in Singapore, 1 family in Segamat and the rest in Muar. CNY is when everyone gathered at Muar and where the boys will play with all the fire works/crackers. Now, most of them are staying JB and have their reunion dinner there. Only my mother's side in still in Muar so we go back there to have our reunion dinner and it gets rather boring for me now that it is very quiet compared to last time. people who know about my big maternal family are surprised that both grandmas + their children get along amiacably. I guess they just cant imagine since polygamy is rather foreign in our day & age and tv only shows conniving families fighting for the inheritance (hahaa!). To me, I appreciate the fact that uncles, aunties and cousins still come together despite having different mothers/grandmothers.

the show must go on
once every 2 years since 1999, current members plus alumni gather together for our public performance. Yesterday was the 5th one and there was still ric, drey, gie alan representing us in that big stage. with 4 of them up there, 4 of them in USA, there was only a few of us left to occupy the audience seats. I guess I am still not used to small numbers when it comes to ahscds'01, always seems too empty when we arent cramped up like sardines.
after the show, our teacher (past, present teacher in charge) called out for all the Alumni to verbalised the previously much privately discussed Alumni-only show. Alumni-only show. Sounds unbelievable, alumni who have graduated from their alma mater, come together to put together a show. People who are now in various stages of their lives - some serving the nation, some schooling, some working, some engaged, some married, some with children - coming together as 1 alumni.
it is not about who gets the chance to be an actor, or director or anything. Just the thought of that, even being an audience will be an exceptionally touching moment.

i am a vertical slug
passed by a primary school today and saw little kids running round their little red track. feel like joining them. missed those un-vertical-sluggish days.
The guest star for Mayday's Taiwan's concert on 22nd of July will be..................................
Zhang Hui Mei.
Totally MINDBLOWING.
my very very first concert is a Zhang Hui Mei's one in 1998 when I was 13.
and I can tell you, this combination is going to do some very good damage to your ear drums.

for ric
for the days you felt insignificant
or like today when you feel blue
for the days when confidence plunges
or the days the ego's bruised
for the times when you got tired,
like that day when you didn't know what to do,
for the moments you got lost
in everyday living, in circumstance, in your emotions.
for times like yesterday, today or tommorrow,
you will know...
"It's alright (it's alright)
it's all good (its all good)
it's okay
you will live to tell another day
it's all good (its all good)
it's okay (it's okay)
it's all fine
good things come in your way"
