. The very very old version by Chow Yuen Fatt. Movie in 1989!! I was only 5 years old loh!!!
But it's a damn good show. Chow Yuen Fatt is a great actor. We love him. Haha.
All of us huddle in our room to watch the show yesterday. Mum love him too. Haha. More than she love Dad. Opps.
Joking only.

We went for the 大圣爷 dinner near market yesterday. Once a year event, I feel like we just pass the 06 event and now its 07 liaos.
I kinda like such dinners don't know why. Like very traditional and with local taste. It's actually a very noisy 'function' cuz of all the bidding going on. Rowdy too.
Darling had like 1001, not 101 but ONE THOUSAND AND ONE questions to ask about the event, me & uncle want to go crazy liaos. Haha.
Had fun catching up with uncle and dad dressed to kill loh. Okay, abit 'kua zhang', but he wore long sleeves shirt leh. Haha.
Grandma just came back from her Australia trip too, shiok. Holiday Holiday. I'm looking forward to our trip in Jan too. Tentatively, we plan for a trip to Redang, can do water sports hoho. But it's more of a leisure, resort holiday.
Also thinking whether should go city area like Taiwan blah blah, then have more things to see and buy.
But shall plan again by then. Still early loh. Now only October. 3 more months!!!!
Mummy also going Australia in Jan, ALL EXPENSES PAID FOR okay. She's got this 'god-sister' who dotes on her alot one loh. Air Tickets paid for liaos, expenses also think have. Plus the aunty have friends or relatives staying there I think. Lodging solved too.
But it's time for mum to take a short break too, from her job and us. Haha.
Uncle also told us to go visit Grandma when we can. If not, next time even when we want to see her also no chance liao. Actually, our ties with relatives on Dad's side isn't too close. We only meet the aunties & uncles once a year, during CNY. We were closer with Mum's side relatives.
Dad's side relatives mostly are the 'hao lian' kind one, and like to compare things. So it's quite sian to even see them once a year at times. We used to be very close when we were younger, all the uncles & aunties were nice and sweet too.
God knows what happen when we grew older. They like comparing, everything from results, to job, to wat kind of schools blah blah. And the ones comparing are not the kids, but the adults. Mum, Dad & Us, we always cannot be bothered with all the comparing. But sometimes, you get involved without knowing it. It's just like office politics.
Especially Sis, she 'kena' the most, cuz she's the oldest among all cousins and we have another cousin who's the same age as her. And he's damn good at his studies, whereas Sis is so so only loh. So always 'kena' pull into the comparing thing.
My that cousin is already 26 and he's still studying, I don't even think he's got any practical experience in the society.
Well, not that studies are bad, but the fact is not all who's done well in their academic perform well in their life.
They could be just nerds!!! And no, I'm not saying that my cousin's a nerd.
Talking about him, it's kinda sad too.
Him, Sis & Myself, we used to be so close when we were younger. Play all kinds of funny games like, The Moon, The Sun and The Star. And we will sit toegether and chat and be funny. Crack jokes and make fun of each other. But now, we are like STRANGERS loh.
Remembered once, during CNY, out of concern, I asked another cousin who's so much more younger then me on his reults. And he say, his mama say cannot tell ppl, cannot tell me. *duh* Cuz why? He didn't do well.
So?? It's not like we are gonna laugh at him?
Not that I did well in my studies, I didn't pass my Os too, but here I am, happy with what I'm doing.
Studies are good but being a very academic person does not equal to HAPPY or GOOD. You could be a real wicked & bad person, but a distinction student.
You could be a distinction student but unhappy with life.
Of course, there are also distinction students with happy life. It's about our choices that we take, not just that piece of paper. It does help us to gain entry to certain organisations smoothly but it does not gurantee u a smooth path.
Well, anyway, lesson learnt. I'm not gonna try to be concern anymore.
Just in case, I'm being labelled as KPO.
Grandma didn't particularly dote on me or sis too actually. She favours boys over gals and when we were younger, she's more of the 向钱看 kind of person.
But I realize she's changed too and she's not young anymore. We should take some responsibility of caring for her too.
Anyway, our laptop is GONE. Really GONE. The screen crack loh.
Can YOU EVEN IMAGINE?
Bro say cuz Cookie knocked it off my bed, but I seriously don't think so. anyway, it's over liaos. I just told Mum yesterady and she's like ANGRY. Expected.
Haiz. Not gonna get another one for the time being, the kind of usage on the poor laptop.
Back to the dinner, the end result, in total we bidded for one fan, one mahjong set and one 'ong lai' thingy, those big big ones.
We wanted to bid another set of mahjong initially but got people 'fighting' for it with us loh. So we gave up.
Then got another set of mahjong and we got so excited and Dad stepped away so we bid on our own. Starting was at 50, den somebody shouted 80, we wanted to counter at 100 when we realize the person who shouted 80 was dad. Haha. Luckily Darling told us, cuz he saw Dad bidding. Otherwise, we would be fighting against each other. *duh*
Rented the old old 赌神 by Chow Yuen Fatt. Haha.
Nice leh.
Anyway, we watched
《不能说的秘密》liaos. It's nice! Bro gave it 5 ***** . 'kua zhang' Haha.
Shall not tell the secret.
Watch it yourself!!!

I seriously think that Keith's very convincing in the photos.

In our dreams. Next year perhaps. Haha.
Winning team was another team which compromise of 2 guys and 2 gals too. For a moment, we thought we have chance, but then....
We were considered quite fast already actually, around 700 - 800+ seconds to complete all challenges. Traveling time wasn't taken in consideration.
There were total of 5 locations and 5 different challenges. The challenges turn out to be quite different from what we expected. We expected more thrills and excitements but they were really simple.
Our first location was Sin Ming Vicom where we were given like 12 straws. We have to think of a way to transfer the water from the bucket to a cup without moving. We can only stand behind the lines.
Darling did the 'sucking' or rather 'drinking' of water from the pail which he almost puked, cuz the water's dirty and have been contaminated by others.
2nd location, was to Choa Chu Kang Stadium, where we had the 'lamest' game.
Fishing!!! Like those pasar malam kind. One of us will be blind-folded and the rest can guide the person. Darling, me & Keith did the fishing.
I guided Darling (vice versa) and Meiling guided Keith.
Darling managed to fish like very fast loh. Actually he 'saw' the fish from the corner of his eyes. *duh*
3rd, we went to Sentosa Sky Tower. At least, the challenge there is more interesting.
We have to do like shuttle run, but instead of passing baton, we have to fill up a bottle with water again, the cup given was poke with alot of holes. That's the challenge.
Once the bottle is filled, a puzzle will drop out and we have to fix the puzzle.
I was so worried that I might topple the bottle, once the bottle's toppled, we have to start all over again. A team before us toppled theirs. It's kinda sad. And once the water runs out, and you have to fill the bottle, the time clock will be the max plus the team will have to stay back for 30mins.
4th, we went to Pasir Ris for a shooting game. Water guns + Tracing Paper. Haha.
The last stop before we 'check-in' at Safra Yishun was West Coast. We did the wheel barrow thing.
Keith & Darling's involved.
Meiling & I, we helped with filling up the cup with water. Hoho.
The theme for this year is Water, therefore all challenges involved abit of water.

We were supposed to go jogging on Saturday night but since there's this Carvival on Sunday, we dropped the idea. Gotta wake up at around 5plus in the morning. Shag... Been so long since we last woke up so early. The last time we woke up before dawn was for the HK Trip.
Pair of track shoes, belonged to Uncle & Aunty actually. Haha.
Decals on the Car!!!

Photo taking before the briefing.
Tee Shirts from the Carvival.

Awaiting for the briefing to begin.
Just look at my shag face.

Power 98 DJ, Sebastian doing the briefing.
Can't see his face, TOO DARK!!!

Mob at Sin Ming Vicom.
We were like taking our own sweet time in between the traveling to different locations cuz the traveling time will not be counted as the time taken to complete the challenges.
Really quite slag as compared to other teams.
We managed to get back to Safra at around 3pm, check in and collect our goodie bags.
Our Time Card ($10,000 worth)
Taken by Darling
Meiling & I with the Goodies
600 People, 150 Teams, waiting in anticipation
We went out for our late lunch and early dinner after 'checking-in'.
Really shag by then. Wanna just drop down somewhere and Zzzz.
Though we didn't expect to win but we still hope to win you see. Haha.
When the results were being announced, it's still kinda disappointing that we are not the winning team.
Well, we can always try again next year. =)
The whole event went well, except for 2 hiccups.
1st --- 6.30am Darling & I were waiting for Meiling & Keith at Hougang Ave 8, Blk 635. But they went to AMK Blk 635. Haha.
2nd --- Lost of car keys, even before we start. 'scarli' it was in Meiling's pocket. Poor Darling & Keith have to dig the rubbish bin. Haha.
Overall, it was a good fun day =)

Shall try next year!!!

I miss HER so much!!! Her = Cookie.
Darling overslept again this morning. He only managed to wake up at around 7.30am, and normally he needs to leave the house by 7.40am, latest. & so, he gotta take the train again.
Normally, I'm the 3rd or 2nd last to leave the house. But today, I'm the last to leave the house and the job of saying bye bye to Cookie and leave her alone in the house falls one me. We don't keep Cookie in the playpen now. She's allow to roam the kitchen and living room.
Normally when I leave the house, I will kiss her and give her one bone biscuit. Not sure if it's because I'm the last one to leave the house today, she's super 'excited'.
I will always tell her 'let's go baby', means follow me to the kitchen then bye bye.
But today when I say 'let's go', she thought I wanna bring her out I think. She jump around waiting for me to open the door than she dashed out, refusing to come back.
I have to tell her 'bye bye baby', walk back to the house than she came back. But ready to dash out again. Think she dash for about 2 to 3 times, I had a hard time keeping her in.
Feel so sad... For leaving her at home. But, we gotta work to buy things for her mah.

baby.
She gave me that so happy look and yet I disappoint her by leaving her alone at home. She must be so sad now...
The more I type, the more sad I feel!!! Argh.
*hug hug* baby.

I can't keep her out of my mind now.
Miss her so much...
