these few days had been great, only outside office hours.
.
Cos it's the first time we ever had a family-based chalet! And all my malaysian relatives came, and we had so much food. Steamboat was on the first night, and i also played mahjong for 15 minutes! That's because i was supposed to substitute my uncle for awhile, and "all money lost will be from him". But, i helped him win 20 ringgit instead, and i got half the winnings from him. But still, after i switched camp to play blackjack, i lost them all.
.
BBQ was on the 2nd night and it's quite shuang when u dun have to do the cooking yourself. It was done by the 3 maids that were hired by each of the 3 malaysian families. Then, because my dad was willing to fetch us to school/work the next morning, we all stayed overnight. And i played BJ all the way till 3am, losing almost 15 ringgit, because we played small bets only.
.
So, don't think that family chalets are boring. Oh ya, i really applaud my parents for essentially 'moving' our house there, with the bringing of really all the essentials. My dad even brought a DVD player, a CD player, trays of cups & glasses and dozens of plates & utensils. And really, many many more. It can really be home if the computer is there too.

---------------------
As for today, i met eric, yuanshao, khengwee for a movie, Letters from Iwo Jima. Ok, the very very first time when i saw this title (which was like a few months ago), I thought it reads "Letters from 1wo Jima". (First warrant Jima).
.
Ok anyway, i slept in the movie! Haha, but i think the movie should be nice, cos of the many good reviews on it, and the awards and nominations it had garnered. And also, I slept cos of the comfort of the seat, not due to the movie la.
.
Then i met my Lanjiao Sect(geraldine, yitsiang, hangping) for dinner at Waraku. We watched a little of the Chingay parade, and i realise that this annual possession had transformed from a mere substitute for CNY Firecrackers some 35 years ago, to Asia's Grandest Street & Float Parade. And a large group of onlookers was made up of tourists and other ethnic citizens. So it has evolved to be quite a national cultural affair, which i guess is good too.
.
--------------------
Anyway, I may have landed myself in deep shit from one of the overnight duties i had done, cos actually something bad happened. I'll die if those at the top really wants people to be responsible for that.. Im hoping for the best, and i'll try not to reveal more, until things are much clearer.
.
Good luck to me.
