happy chinese new year!!
great day.
had fun with my cousins talkin crap & laughin so hard at every single thing.
it's like we onli meet up once a year,
but we'd always haf loads of fun once we r together.
was stuffin my face with soooo much food.
simply irresistable.
all those pineapple tarts, bagua, kueh lapis...*drools
the past years cousins and i gambled among ourselves with damn small bets ( like 20cents,pathetic huh).
this year,we upgraded to play cards with the adults.
hah.
damn fun. lost some, won some..
gona gamble more tmr when mum's side relatives come over.

yesterday's performance wasn't as bad as i expected it to be.
in fact, i thought it was a blast.
tink the audience loved it.
lotsa comments abt it, like it's somethin new & different from the boring old stuff.
hah.
adel said the gimmicks sort of made up for how bad we usually sound.
sad, but true.
then there was pot luck in class.
we had yusheng. maple,yongteng,adel & the rest came back to t08 to join us.
a pleasant gathering.

went to chinatown last nite.
it was super crowded.
hardly any walkin space along the stalls.
highlight of the nite was definitely the display of fireworks & firecrackers once the clock struck midnight.
a spectacular sight.
nvr seen firecrackers lit up my whole life.

lookin forward to more visits these few days.
