CNY ♥ 1:02 AM

GONG XI FA CAI to all my chinese friends! Even if the angbaos don't cheer you up, I hope the holiday did.

I could really use some rest, though I've had plenty of it. But my mind was thoroughly engaged the entire week, from start to finish. And so I had a swell week, with the most random people injecting me with joy and a strange sort of happiness.

Some of the things worth mentioning:

NANA'S 18TH / First GNO for 2008, 31 jan
I hope the "birthday princess" liked the card, it was pretty right? Swarovski sak Na, you've got to love it. It was nice seeing the girls. It seems like Shaz and I are the only ones with undyed black hair and kiddy faces. Just wait till the Big A is over, we'll soon look our age, haha. There were donuts, ayam penyet, popiah, gifts and of course great company. Operation Fondue had to be postponed but it will come!

MALINA'S 18TH, 4th feb
I hope you liked the shoe bag. It's ORANGE hokay! Sparklers and Sparkling Juice! Sayang kau, though you speak horrible malay and screw you, container is not belangkas. I hope you stupid little tortoise won't forget your shell, haha!

DATE WITH SID, 6th feb
27 dresses was a great lesson, right Sid? Anyway, I had fun with 27 dresses, funky old-school camwhoring (the ultra-hip Neoprint machine now packed with fans and funny additional features like infrared transfer to your moile), Ayam penyet to make us drowned in chillies (chillies are antidrepressants, I swear by it) and off to the Shisha place to not smoke the hookah but to eat fries, heh.

HAVEN'T MET SOMEONE IN YEARS!

TODAY, 10th feb: SWEENEY TODD
I went to teach Nana at Sue's place in the moring and Malina, Shane and I pressured Sue to ditch her books for the day and off we went to meet the Classies. We ran, dodged, ran some more just to be sure that we would not miss the show, only to find out that the show had been pushed to 2am but this change had not been reflected as they had not updated it online. So we were desperately left with nothing to do but to sit down and stone.

So we resentfuly settled at Gloria Jean's because they refused to go Starbucks on the reason being that their coffee sucks, but hey, I support Starbucks because I love their Java Chip and Caramel Frap. Until Shane called Eng Wah up and we were decided on catching Sweeney. Tyw left halfway to go drinking. So we headed fo Sweeney!

Sweeney Todd was a superb show. I love Mr T and the way his eyes seem to have that bleeding effect when he's angry (and because he's Depp). I also love love love Mrs Lovett's dreams that was so surreal. The pure white clouds matched with the sky that's of a perfect shade of blue and the palace and gosh, the image of Mr Todd and Mrs Lovett in sailor costumes by the beach and Mr Todd's glum, angry face, GOSH, I wouldn't mind watching it again.

I even got Mandarin oranges, Thanks Jon!

On top of all that, I love my mother, I hope she knows.

And gosh, Akon's playing on the radio and I'm just thinking of September, of Rin and all the memories she brings. Going to funny places and running home to escape tongue-lashings. OH, good old times.
Past!

Karibs, bila keluar?
