Ready, get set.._ _ _.. (see below)..

On this day, we celebrated my youngest bro's birthday and the whole family gathered up for a lunch celebration except Papa Chua who had to settle some matters at Bright Hill temple. We had our lunch at Owen Seafood Restaurant @ Turf City. It was a wonderful spread and a good deal cos there was a 30% discount for seafood and 50% for all other a-la-carte dishes.




It was a nice day out for the family and I enjoyed it lots!

Je m'ennuie

Pourquoi?
Parce q'il est toujours malade
Je ne sais pas quand il se rétablira
Maintenant je suis lunatique
La semaine prochaine sera occupée
Voulu apprécier ce week-end, mais...que vous savez
Ne peut pas attendre pour rentrer pour travailler demain..
je suis fol ou non..

CAI XIN FENG BAO.. episode 2 out of ???

A simple advice led to 真心话... he really sucks big time!!!

Expects and wants monthly allowance
Wifey obligated to increase daily pocket money cos she's not preparing homecooked meals
Daughter splitted the family up
Never give him anything
Repay kindness with ungratefulness

I dun care what was said was in a fit of anger or not cos what was said cannot be retracted. I am unable to quantify and repay his kindness of upbringing as it was a decision he made when he chose to have kids. So he should be prepared to bear all responsibilities and consequences associated with the decision. Everyone has the right to expect what you want to expect and the expectations can only be met if you have paved your path well.. Obviously, he has failed.. Since one believes that there is a root cause to everything, it should be easy to comprehend now, isn't it? Fail to plan, plan to fail..

J'espère que mon mari se rétablit bientôt..

Il a les ulcères dans sa gorge..
C'est très pénible et torturous pour manger et boire pour lui..
Et je ne peux pas l'aider...
Je crois que c'est c'est plus pénible que les fois précédentes...
J'espère que il se rétablit bientôt..

No more chalkboards

The new extension and the canteen...The hall is right above the canteen...

The quadrangle where we will all gather, sing school song, listen to announcements..Can see our school motto? It's Knowledge, Conduct, Benevolence and Aspiration..

Standing at the end of the technical block.. we will usually hang around below the block till the bell rings..

The nice garden area between the ex-canteen and the new extension..

Do the names sound familiar to ex-Manjusrians? Can you remember who taught you which subject? Some of the teachers showed signs of aging but some still look youthful for their age..

郑老师
Mdm Loh
Mr Eng
Ms Ong Siew Lean
Mrs Keh
Ms Ho

Who is that standing up? Do you know?

Teachers and principals on stage singing the school song... (Sorry, very small cos I was too shy to walk to the front or even to take pictures with them..)

I marvelled at myself for being able to recall the faces and remember the names of the teachers who taught me and knowing where to find the AVA room, the used-to-be canteen, the used-to-be home economics room, the used-to-be geography room, the technical block.. Funny how I can remember these yet not being able to remember recent things well.. some call this selective memory.. haha...

The principal gave a speech, we watched a commemorative video of the old and new school campus and we sang our school song. They asked for volunteers on stage to sing the song but no one went on stage except the teachers. Within 30 mins the tea buffet commenced, many started to take out their cameras to take photos with their classmates, the teachers etc... We just went to take foods from the buffet line and started eating because we didn't see anyone familiar from our batch as it was a super last minute arrangement before I could react and ask more people along.. Anyways, I like the simple vegetarian bee hoon and curry... yummy! We left soon after..

Everytime when I go near the area for 126 dimsum or durian with friends, I will think of walking near to the school to take a look but lack that push.. and finally.. this day.. It may be nice to go check out the new campus but it's fonder at the ex-school.. more feel..

Estella Lim

That's Estella Lim (a.k.a. Miss Lim) in my arms.

She is so adorable and has got very big eyes to see you with.. hee... but this photo I took was when she was sleeping.

When I catch her in action with her big big eyes, I will update it here.. stay tune.. (Anyone care to donate pics of her is welcome!)

Her parents are the very few that I see who are so open with people handling their kid. Heard expert in MJ wor, maybe one of these days can 切磋切磋一下.. ;p.. Ms Lim will be turning one month real soon! Happy one-month young to you, Estella!

Wii got a new game!

Yeah, bought another new game recently for my Wii! So happy! ;) Played with Cally, Xintian and Chuiming over the weekend! It was so much fun!

It's all about the Attitude?

Was thinking/looking back on certain things and couldn't understand why some things had to turn out this way? Why some people want to continously indulge and behave in those "even-little-kids-know-it's-obviously-wrong- and-senseless" manner? What could one have done better without having to face those fakey, awkward, tension-felt, unhappy events or moments?

I know that's just life but couldn't life be more worry-free and everyone is happy, optimistic and contented? Personally, at the moment, I feel like the songs, 稻香 by Jay Chou, 路一直都在 by Eason Chan, 猜不透 by Ding Dang.. Why does one have to indulge in self-pity, be self-centred, be selfish, form impression and show attitude at times? To me, life should be very simple and people are all good-natured but some people just have to prove me WRONG!

Maybe the problem lies with ME! Maybe I'm the one having the attitude and creating that idiotic impression which gets on peoples nerves? Someone, please enlighten me! Sometimes I ask myself, did I want things this way? Did I ask for it? I do not have the answer! I can only say, LIFE really sucks at times and I really want to steer clear of those things...

Sorry, this is just one of those moments where so many thoughts are running through my head, wonder if this is what people call 胡思乱想.. Alright, I kpkb finish liao.. sigh.. should go to sleep now and restart my "PC"... One thing I like about myself is being able to sleep away/play games to rid all the unhappy things (yeah!) though sometimes it still comes back to haunt me.. aarrrrgggghhhh..
