chinese new year day 2 ; Friday, February 08, 2008 23:17
today was different.
my father suggested breakfast. we supposed that there would be at least some stalls opened today. so we tried the newly-opened market at amk central. guess what? we got a carrot cake stall, fishball noodles and a drink stall. and since they were the only stalls open, we had to wait that long. yeah.
zheeyi came over today. as in, one of my relatives. chatted for over an hour, then they left. 'cause we were seeing them again in the evening and tomorrow!
my father's boss invited us over to her house for house warming cum cny celebrations today. it was THAT big. i mean it.
like, 4 storeys excluding the basement? imported chinese-style doors from people staying in china, draw-bridge style steps at the side door, 2 taracotta soldiers in the hall. a swimming pool downstairs, badminton court upstairs and a gym beside. 11 plasma tvs, countless bedrooms, and this chute concept that you can throw your clothes down into the wash area.
heard her husband spent more than ten years thinking of the concept of the house. a genius.
after two hours, i was back to earth. it's a place that one could just see in awe. my dream house, maybe?
we left close to four. made our way home before dropping my brother at his friend's place in bishan. came home, rested for awhile and it was out again.
this time, it was for dinner at my aunt's house at jalan perminpin. contemplated visiting eloys before we left but was too held up talking and catching up.
this has to be one of the greatest cnys we every had. and the best thing is, there's no school tomorrow! i remembered once that cny day2 was on a sunday. then we had to leave early 'cause there was school the next day. but tomorrow is saturday!
i'll spend the most of my holidays, before slogging the last week of school. school? why let such a word spoil my happy occasion? (:
