chu xi ye or CNY eve yestd, had reunion dinner (the traditional steamboat) and it wasn’t very appetizing because most of the food was uncooked ):
Anyway, woke up late today and dallied for quite a while. Took my own sweet time choosing my new year clothes, knowing that anything I wear will be under close scrutiny (note: bitchy cousin). Then headed off to grandma’s house.
Okay, I dint even expect to see stmargs people there, but I did. Apparently, the Leong girls (leong mei lin, leong mei poh, leong mei ting) were just next door to my grandma’s house. COINCIDENTAL right?? Anyway, no one regconised me, so I left it as that (:
Grandma’s house was not as packed as last year, and i could still regconise some of the relatives. The regular people were there, but some like third aunty (direct translation from chinese) had grown fatter, and some were plain eccentric. Cousin’s voice broke, so now he sounds quite manly hahaha. The bitch was there as usual, and being the bitch that she is, she changed clothes 3 times. Weird.
Anyway, I got two little nieces who are super naughty and cute :D magdalene teo and lynn teo are two mischievious and very lovable kids (: then there is jordan, a tubby little boy (my nephew) and the cousin of magdalene and lynn.
The hosts were cousin kahwei’s parents, and they ordered pizza and buffet. I ate a lot and drank 3 cans of soft drinks and must have looked like a glutton. And apparently fourth aunty said I had grown thinner which is so fake because well, I eat a lot.
And there was this cousin who thought that I was still in primary school ): anyway, I behaved like a true lady and seemed like an idiot afterwards (you know, sit there not talking unless spoken to etc). and no, I dint bring my donation card because its so lame to go up to relatives and ask them to donate. They will think im some kind of girl who wants to siphon money off them when they have already given me angpaos.
And I think my grandma has an absolute MEGAWATT memory because she remembers EVERY SINGLE ONE of her relatives. Matriarches are super xD
