of reunion and farewell dinners.

(asher says this is our ancestor. hmmm...)

ah, so the new year holidays are over. i'm proud to say i only ate a total of 4 peanuts! (not including other tidbits lol) So here's brief summary, with as many photos as possible!

day 0 was reunion dinner at uncle francis'. invited a norwegian friend. i must say he was impressed with the house! lol. jie has pictures of the lo hei, will let her post.

day 1 began at ama's. of course, new year is all about tradition, so we just had to carry on the very singaporean tradition of being late. mee sua with red wine chicken - what a way to start the day! caught a bit of kungfu panda as well.
at this point i would like to introduce our newest member of the family - abel yeo.

(come to think of it, josh is the odd one out here...)

visited dad's side as well. dad was so proud, saying that we cleared all the essential visiting on the first day. haha! rested at home, and visited uncle jack. found a new NUS friend.
then was to another dinner at dad's side. yum. my aunty cooks a mean ngoh hiang! no photos though. afterward was a midnight movie - all's well that ends well. total brain kaput. i would advise not paying to watch it ;)

day 2 saw us up bright and early at the airport. thank God for safe driving by yours truely (especially after driving the kangoo to uncle francis'). what a big group we were! and what a ruckus, at 7am in the morning! hannah didn't cry though, i guess she wasn't sad?
i'm kidding lol!

(she looks happy to me!)

(ah, what are farewells without prayer?)

after a healthy mac's breakfast, it was time to go. we made it over to uncle sam's - there was lion dance! and as usual, uncle joe was being naughty.

(F1? "how i survived lion dance" by lincoln yeo, 2009)

Headed to Josh's. Supposed to sleep, ended up play RA3 with him. Lincoln slept for us lol. Then to eno's for a lil' chill! they have a dog now. watched a christian stand up comedian, ate, played with the dog, ate... you get the general idea.

And now... day 3 farewell dinner for the two @ minori, joshua's (gasp!) treat! overseas people, claim your free treat from josh when you're back! it was crazy - guess our stomachs aren't what they used to be! the next table was weird too - one guy, and the rest (about 8) girls! haha. we had complimentary lo hei, so we spouted whatever japanese proverbs we could think of - wasabi, kamikaze...

(rise of the zombies)

(what's this you sell?)

Ah well. soon only liern, josh, lincoln and myself left.

come back soon!
