Outsmart;
using other people's move to your advantage

Had a great ytdy. It was Grandma's birthday. Went to a restaurant @ Tanglin Mall for steamboat. Chongqin hotpot. 5 tables of ppl squeezing onto 4 instead, cos they find it more shuang that way. Lols.

What's funny was my cousin, which is now a teacher of MOE, imitating the way their China staff speak. He totally dont look and act like a teacher.

Had a big birthday cake. Wow the cake cost a bomb seriously, it feels like eating money than cake, the cake doesnt really taste nice. :P

Haha it was my grandma birthday, so guess what my cheeky uncle and auntie does ? They shouted tghr 'kiss !kiss!kiss! " having the idea of grandpa kissing grandma. Of course he is reluctant, but with the excited cousin shouting for him to do it, he did it. So he held my grandma head and 'muak' But only got the sound, obviously he didnt really kiss.

So we ask our grandma if grandpa kissed her in Teochew. And she said no! Haha, we thought she will just want to get over with it quickly, but she said no! And everyone simply burst out laughing.

So after dinner, we went for our usual after celebration activity - bowling @ Taman Jurong with everyone. We played all the way to 1am . Haha. Afetr that all the small ones and old ones left, leaving 2 of my cousins and me behind. So we played pool. I am a noob, but at least now i know how to play alrdy. We later than cab down to Jurong Spring CC for World Cup screening, watch all the way to 4am.

Really enjoyed my day with my cousins. :)

Like an egg with a bread;
they are a perfect match, stay that way!

I am back from Genting. I guess no one knows I am away anyway. Trip was F A B U L O U S. You never know how much I enjoy it.

I went with my cousins, uncles and aunties, a total of 40 people. Haha my cousin actl went to book a bus, to contain everyone. And it was hell fun, a bumpy bus ride to genting. :D My baby cousins was treating the bus as their playground. There was like a raised platform at the back of the bus, and they kind of like singing there, acting like it was their concert. Haha. Funny moment.

The seat was really big and comfortable. With television and food :D I was having the back seat, and i was seating pretty high. At times when the bus 'jumped', I jumped out of my seat. :P

My cousins all met at my aunt house before getting up the bus. I didnt know she had shifted house. Her house is really nice, on a hill. The view on her house just caught my breath. Cos i reach there ard 6am. And i can actl see sunrise. First time! Really nice. The house was freaking 3 storey tall, and literally having part of the hill at the back of the house.

Just ate and ate, played with my small cousins on the bus trip up.

Reached Genting. And I was wearing a tee-shirt, and a pants. Pull out my hoody, and we all went to the outdoor theme park,while the adults check in. Haha i actl took the 'Space shot' again. Though there was like 15 people there, only 3 went up the ride. Actl i was abt to chicken out, but due to cousin persuasion i stayed. The ride actl bring you up high in the sky, keep you in suspension, and it plunge down in as matter of seconds. Darn thrilling. Had fun shouting, screaming on the rides like nobody business with my cousins! Haha.

Played most of the rides beofore meeting the adults again for dinner. It was ard 10pm before we had dinner btw. :D

Ltr at the night, went back to bathe in our hotels. Younger cousins went indoor theme park, older ones went shopping. And the adults went casino. We shop for different things, so we went in our groups. I went to search for christmas presents. At the beginning I am really lost what I am gg to buy, but just when i was abt to give up, I saw something :P I dk whether they will like, I thk they will like and I hope they like, cos it cost me quite abit. :P Haha , hope my intuition is not wrong.

Met up after shopping @ Starbucks to chill with laptops, coffee, and cakes. We was like sitting in the open with the cold air blowing, the feeling was really relaxing with the company of a coffee and cake. We stayed thr all the way to 1plus in the morning, till we decided that we go back for a rest.

Pissed. Woke up early in the morning ard 6am, bcos cousin was knocking on the door, asking everyone to go for breakfast.So wash up and went out again for breakfast. Though it was cold there, everyone likes eating ice cream there. Haha, joke.

Went to the arcade to play some games. Went to have lunch. Check out and thats the end of the trip. :D Really enjoyed myself. What a good break from work.

Talking abt work I am working ltr on @ 5pm and all the way till 1am. Poof, was a wet blanket after a nice trip. :/ I am working for 2 days beofore gg for youth camp :D Thats something to look forward to. But i have to work straight after the camp ends :(

Reality robs ppl off passion. You may like doing this but knowing that you will not be able to earn enough, and survive in the future society, people tend to give up the dreams they have since young. What a sad world or maybe should I say pratical world. Passion slowly fades, dreams dashed - thats the power of money in the world.I once thought following what you like doing (passion) is the most important in whatever I do, but now, I find that I cant totally rely on that, I will be doom if I am really thinking that way. I wonder if I am the only one thinking this way. I am slowly losing what I really like doing, and myself :/

The mighty and strong;



Shall update on my trip to Malaysia. Finally some time getting off stress, feel more refresh after the trip. Will update some photos once I got it from my cousins. Hah I love my family, big and warm. The laughters of everyone, my cousins, uncles and aunties just lift up my spirit. There was many babies in the house crawling here and there, there is 5 now. My cousins brought their bfs and gfs, it was real sweet! Some alrdy lasted for 3 years.

Went to some kampong place, with no shopping centers, only trees all around, chicken crowling in the morning and mosquitos. The air in the morning is so cooling. Hah my fav activity there, getting myself onto a bike and ride ard. Haha it is fun, with my cousin riding me ard the whole kampong.

I went there for wedding dinner. The first day I went there, had some pre-wedding celebration at my aunt's house. Decorate the whole house with my cousins with baloons. Hah I tied all the balloons. While they pump and played with the balloons. The house was big, but the people was too much to be sqeeuze inside, so my uncle actl catered a tent outside the house, it was build right in the middle of the road lah, and it was right, so attention gaining.

In the middle of the night, went to the church, to decorate the place for the next day. Haha cos it was like real late, there was noone and it is super dark. Joke ard tied even more balloons, had lots of laughters. Get ourselves in sweat, went back to bathe. Super tiring, doze off straight away. Some of my older cousins actl gambled to the morning, and cant wake up :P

Woke up early in the morning, the girls did their makeup and boys style their hair. The girls took up a super long time. I didnt know girls do makeup have to take up a few hours. And I found out that hair spray is fun to use. Haha, it can actl make your hair stand without falling the whole day.

The bridegroom came in a while, jealous man, my cousins actl went to open the wedding car door and got himself, 50 ten dollar notes. They went by tradition, whr the bridegroom have to go through the jiemei before coming in- the gate. Haha, my aunties find it was not so exciting, so they lock the house door, for a second stage. It was real funny, everybody got another red packet. My auntie actl make the bridegroom say his love for the bride. But bcos he was shy, he actl ask his in-law or help "Mama jiu ming" Haha. But in the end he still have to say lah,hah he make my goosebums stand man! Disgusting. Haha

Wait till the afternoon for the dinner. Change again. Hah actl drank red wine with 7up, guess what my eyes went swollen. Initially I thought I am okay just if I dont drink so much, but in the end lost control. Ass! I am lousy. After the dinner, my uncle send my whole family back the singapore. Had a great time with my cousins. See you all soon ! :D
