Happy Cheena New year!

During the short one week chinese new year break I spent in Malaysia, I got to discover that I'm a pretty tempremental person. Now that I'm back in Singapore, I feel like I'm going through a delayed angsty period which should have come when I was 13 or 14. It doesn't help that Nat too is feeling equally angsty because both of us will just end up complaining to each other and getting more grumpy. It's unlike being depressed and having a friend to share those feelings because either one will probably end up comforting the other and feeding off the gloom of the other so as to result in less wallowing in self-pity. Sowhen 2 depressed people come together, you probably get 2 better feeling people after the encounter. However 2 angsty people coming together = more angst. Haha... (Nat we're angst rearers!)



Anyways, just a heads up, I think this will be a long post because of the daily word quota I never got to finish when I was in Malaysia. =) Don't worry, there'll be pictures.




So just to kick off here's a farmiliar, overpriced chinese new year dish, yu sheng, lou hei or salad and raw fish. We had our reunion lou-hei-ing in my mum's office, haha... Trust our family to treat the office as a second home! As I poured the different things into the mixture, not knowing what the hell to say, I ended up saying things like:



'Hua shen shen she... shen hai zi, shen hai zi' (Peanuts... give birth... give birth)



New year in Malaysia was a little different this year because my uncle's side of the family didn't come down, so we practically had the entire house to ourselves. I think Breadtalk has the cutest breads, remember our little snowman-Ambert? Now they have this cute little alien looking thing with raisins as brains!

Yeah I know, random me, one minnute KL the next minute raisin stuffed heads. Told ya I was tempremental (maybe only the -mental part) haha..

Anyways whilst I was in ole Malaysia (it's an affectionate term), I took the chance to be a sucker/tourist and let Roger bring me up the KL Tower, this 400+ metre high tower which doesnt do much but sit there and earn money from us poor dummies. I think Roger enjoyed himself very much using their super powerful binoculars to peep at people by the pool sides. Haha... The malaysian gah-ment truly has a weird sense of aesthetics, all the dustbins there were shaped like pineapples. Pineapples? Might as well make it chikus.

Well then, here's a hilarious video from the same guy from Roger's blog's video (lousily structured sentence) Aiya, point is, he's hilarious, 10 times better than that silly russel peters guy. Going out to all who havfe played Canon in D in some point of their lives. (Nat!! watch this!!)




Oh yes, I have to complain before I leave, there was this ass hole of an ang mo lasat night who scolded me for slow service when firstly, he wasn't even in my section and secondly, it wasn't my fault all the bloody staff decided to go on their smoking break together as on ea ndleave the floor unattended. Bah, hope he falls down and sprains his upturned nose.
