brother started the reunion dinner with simple words. "we dont thank god, but we thank you(mum)".

mum's cooking is good enough to start a restaurant. ah ma's cooking (mum's shifu) can in, hc lingo, own any 5* hotel's food. and i'm serious! anyhow, mum prepared one of the most elaborate and expensive dinner ever (all with her own hands). from the sharks' fin (which mum again somehow conjured up?) to cold crabs to buddha-jump-over-the-wall-like-dish and abalone, vegetable... haha i'm just glad mum's around, though at times admittedly, she's been mean to me and i to her too. its something we ought to change.

somehow, our dinner conversation digressed into getting drunk, yet again. mum was telling us how much she wants to get drunk, and we're laughing at my bro and his state of drunkeness (which meant talking crap) and who gets drunk the fastest(obviously me). my bottle of malibu is nearing the halfway mark, and i hope i dont drink so much haha. someday, just someday, i'll want to get so dead drunk (with the right company of course).

lol this morning, the usual lazing around on bed happened. but this time, sister was being an arse, like imagine someone trying to squeeze/snuggle in between my brother and i. then when she realized her job was to get us up, she proceeded to annoy us. lol sister's idea of "annoying" always revolve around giving us kisses and trying to hug us and what not. geez, and trust me, if u have your sister continually trying to plant kisses on ur cheeks, it can get quite annoying. haha

parked ourselves at ah ma's house the whole morning/afternoon and that was probably the only place we visited. going back there for dinner later. haha, i'll try to get some pics up if i can. it's funny to see how our entire extended family(3 families) is decked out in green cos of superstition. it's become hari raya literally. and its a sight to behold, what dad calls as the "frog family".

well, happy chinese new year everyone. its a nice break. finally some space to enjoy myself again and hangout/chill.
