Had a nice time today on an outing with Just and her mum! :^) I din go for any visiting at all.. My family stopped doing that some yrs back.. But happens that a few relatives came by yesterday and today(right now in fact), so I had it easy.. Dun have to step out of my house door, yet the angbao money still goes into my pocket.. Haha dun turn green..;)
It's been so long since I had any contact with relatives that I have no idea what to call them anymore.. What with the 'gu gu', 'ta bo'(eldest), 'er bo'(second eldest) and so on and so forth.. My father's family is also quite big, since during our parents' time that's the norm anyway.. But I juz call them all 'uncle' and 'auntie' now.. Hahax.. Though I say it in an embarrased way coz I know that's not how it's supposed to be.. But I do think a lot of trouble can be saved.. Juz stick with 'uncle' and 'auntie' is fine what.. Seriously.. Is this a sign that I'm being influenced by western ways too? Hehe..
Next up, I went to Marina Square and then the Hongbao River Show today.. That's where I went with Just.. First thing we did was to eat at Carl's Jr, for the very first time too =D Be warned.. The portions served are indeed quite big.. Two or three ppl can share 1 burger.. They really follow the fast food joints in the States.. Serve big portions.. But in the States, they serve even greater amts of food still.. The food there isn't fantastic.. Juz of normal standard.. It's juz fast food, that is.. Only the chicken strips are pretty gd to eat.. And it's good that the drinks are refillable =] Yokays, I dun wanna keep talking abt food, but hope my account of the food there helps if u're abt to go there to eat too :) I'm not a v big fan of burgers, hehhh
Then, most of e shops in Marina Square weren't open but one clothing shop was.. It's that shop that F4 and SHE models for.. Kinda forgotten the shop name by now.. Remember it as sth like 'In-Base'? Anyway the clothes there are real cool.. A little punk like.. But basically juz cool and smart.. I bought this black short sleeved jacket, that isn't meant to keep u warm but u wear it juz to look nice.. Quite shuai.. Cost $15 only! Heheh.. I think I will buy more clothes from this shop.. I think I am sometimes attracted to boyish clothes.. I have even considered getting a pants with a thin chain hanging at the hip area.. Hmmz this attraction to such clothes may be bcoz I've been into gangster flicks.. Lolz X) But I still reccommend the clothes from this shop yeah
Next, the Hongbao River Show! I din stay there v long.. But it was juz normal.. Pasar malam kind of thing? Lol.. I bought cotton candy to eat! Missed eating that.. Though I was considering eating malt candy, to get into the mood of one of Jay Chou's new song 'Malt Candy' mahz.. Haha k let's forget that.. Also, I ate this delicious bowl of shaved ice! Picture a happy iceball getting its head shaved.. Hehe that's what comes to my mind on hearing 'shaved ice'.. But anyway, the shaved ice was really delicious.. So much better than the ice kacang in hawker centres! That's coz the shaved ice tasted so fruity, so full of flavour.. Best man =)
Yalar, basically that is it.. Went out, ate something, walked around. Haha exclude all e details, that's juz how boring it sounds..
I'll juz put Jay's song "Huo Yuan Jia" up for a couple of days.. Sounds more chinese new year style u know? Though I dun think it's a real nice song.. Oh yeah, saw Jay's music video playing in Golden Village too.. CoOoL~ I tend to be impressed how ppl break into more and more different markets, to maybe make a name for themselves, make more money.. It's like their own form of imperialism.. Hahah.. So now, we not only hear Jay in music stores.. His music is playing in theatres too.. Go man!
I'll end by saying I got this vcd! The 'Wang Zi Bian Qing Wa' special(or fan wai ban).. Bah, not all of u will know what I'm talking abt and I dun like to be talking abt things others dunno of :P But first time I saw this and hope I'm gonna have a nice time watching! I juz think the female character Tian Yu is very lively u know? I like to be like that sometimes.. She and the Dang Ou make a funny and cute couple..^_^ I've been learning how to draw the other main character in e story.. A cartoon frog.. Hehe.. Super cute.. Okay, nothing to blog abt already? Now, shoo. =Pp
