mondays and monday blues,

on mondays and tuesdays im like the free-est person on earth, released from classes around 2 or 1.30 then stone around nothing to do.
anyways, since i really got nothing to do / don't feel like doing anything else, i'll blog about my cny visits!
初一
初一s are about visiting my most immediate family, stopping at my grandma's palce for some mee sua. but because this year i was sick, i was abandoned at home and had to go my grandma's house (in home clothes not new clothes) for brunch. followed by experimenting on my uncle's wii.
i think wii is okok only la, the games because of the way the controllers are designed, its like for example bleach fighting, you swing swing swing your hand like as if you are wielding your own zanpaktou. quite cool la. but obviously wii was designed being a multiplayer fun console in mind so one player games will get boring extremely fast.
by tradition, i would then proceed to houses near my vicinity, (god-grandmother and other relatives near telok blangah area.) but cause i was sick, so i watched prison break at home! then followed by visits to my (2nd) cousins house (which i found out is like 1 road away from quek's condo -.-" ) . by tradition again, it would be the last visit for the day but because of unforseen circumstances have to visit my (1s) cousins (just beside bb shoping centre o.O ) . and yah so ends my first day.
初二
by tradition my 2nd counsins will turn up then chat a while before going to 1st cousins house. but cause yesterday already went but 2nd cousins still popped by anyways.
then would proceed to my uber rich distant relative house (near orchad ftw). the condo security is sooooooo tight, theres an individual lift for every house unit!!! (actually only 2 units per floor) so its like those penthouse kind where once u step out of the lift you're at the door of the occupant! anyway random sidenote somehow my relatives nephew married one of my primary school teacher, so imagine getting angbao from your primary school teacher yearly ._. to accentuate how gayly rich they are, they treat everyone to a bowl of mee sua, in the meesua got like 6 different type of abalones / abalone-ish family. !!! and they invite like 30+ ppl to their house yearly. !!! so each bowl is like around 30 - 40 bucks cost price!!!
yep. then would have to fast forward to night time where my relatives (same one) would host a dinner at marina mandrin!!! those international buffet style kind with the chatterbox chicken rice sushi baked ham smoked salmon etc etc. o.O i wouldnt miss the food for the world so i went there despite my flu. pictures were taken but because they have to like blow it up to a3 and laminate before passing to every family it would take like 6 months before i receive it. haha.
the 3rd and 4th days werent really worth mentioning cause i mugged/ stoned the rest of it away except for when some of my mother's friends came over (but didnt gamble sianned) rawr so basically this cny didnt eat any of my fav bak kua, nor my kway pang ket, nor my love letters. rawr.
anyways move on to today, so quek randomly asked me go queensway area to get presents for vday, pdc also tagged along . shant disclose anything here ahha (cause i know you read this xian yun!) wahhaha. except for the fact that a few interesting things happened.
interesting fact 1: met a guy in ikea who wore the same specs as quek o.O
interesting fact 2: wanted to buy a cone-ish paper stand that read CAUTION ANGEL TO BITCH IN 3.5 SECS. but on second thought decided not to since i dunno who my angel is and she might not be able to take the joke. hahah.
interesting fact 3: saw this fortune ball thingy which when you roll, they will come out with some answers or somehting. so quek went "do i suck" then the ball showed "indications show yes" or something along the lines. lol.
so ends my interesting monday.
