CNY @ brunei and Birthday celebration!

Gong Xi Fa Cai from me to all of my family and friends

Me back in brunei!!!

First time there is alcohol in my house. funny right?

Chinese reunion, we had BBQ on the menu, this dragon year is all about food, we have shabu shabu on the day we arrived and on this honourable day we had our home based BBQ, How cool was that? It must the blessing and privilege that our grandfather gave to us. We have never have so many varieties of eating dinner.

We are having BBQ at home. Awesome!

Melting marshmellow~

All of these are the main character of the night. (we have sausages, prawn, chicken wings, stingrays, lamb and beef)

Everyone is helping out!!

The expert in BBQ-ing!

throwing pop-pop! Ouchie!

Fruit salad for supper. yums!

First day of Chinese New Year, went to my grandmother house and because my aunt haven't done with the cooking, we decided to go bowling first. Millie and Priscilla manage to catch a movie due to the long queue. Really long queue if i knew that it will be that long, i would have catch a movie myself too. jealous~

Thinking, back i was kinda regret that i wasn't able to take photos in my grandma house, and after the bowling, everyone was tired and was not in good shape anymore ( not pretty) so they didn't want to take pictures. I felt sad cause it was suppose to retain memories by photos, all well my bad too, why didn't i take photos earlier. oh well, First day was not bad, my mom even met her old friend which she haven't met for ten years. Unexpectedly she was a nurse, i didn't say a word when i knew she was in the same field as me. hmm not sure why, shouldn't i get some tips from her???

There was a live show of the lion dance at the bowling center. This is my first and only lion dance for the year.

We played our very antique monopoly that very night. It was a good feeling where all four of us gathered and talked while playing. It was nice.

The Next morning, we have the sticky cake for breakfast. My mom this time added yam. hmmm not bad, but i guess pudu one is still nicer. but this is a healthier choice, less oily. This few days basically go to my friends house and spend time together, gambling ( sad cos lost a lot), my birthday celebration with my friends (with pizza, and stella's home left over, and her astro on demand)

My sis and i have a cheesecake for this year's brithday! Awesome, but couldn't eat much of it, cos i flying tomorrow and we are having dinner at i-lotus. So i only have a little flavour of the bakerlyn cake which is quite nice actually. My house chinese new year tidbits was not a lot, so it was very fast finish as u can see i have many family members.

Lou Yee Sang at I-lotus. Very nice in flavour and texture! huat arh!

Lastly, Happy Chinese New Year Everyone, although this year dragon not that good for dragon people nevertheless good luck to everyone and hope that this year would be a great year. Everything will be smooth smooth one. GONG XI FA CAI! Love u all, my friends and family!

The night that i and sis need to stay elsewhere.

Yup. I guess everyone knew my socket at my house blown up. created smoke which filled the whole room of mine. disgusted. hardwork in cleaning it up.

And Yes jus like the title say, i and sis went to stay overnight at my aunt house.

Not comfy as i get to sleep on floor.

But i can't complain, right. no choice.

I didn't what exactly happen. but i can tell u wat i saw when it happen.

Apparently, It blew up is because obviously overload is the cause.

I was taking a bath.

Suddenly the electricity went off. i tot it was short circuit at first.

Then suddenly i felt that the water became so damn cold. what happen to the heater?

Suddenly i heard noise and smell weird outside my bathroom.

So i went out naked. OMg. the socket was burning. so i went towards it naked ( embarassing but thank god my sis is outside room plus the door is closed)

Since the fire went poof when i approached it so i went back to the bathroom to get my towel and approached it again.

Try to take out the socket with another cloth but it seems like the whole socket head melted.

All well. tis is the time i call my dad and aunt.

But due to i haven really clean all my shampoo on my head therefore i went back to take bath and ask my sis to call.

Of cos before that open window and hopefully the smoke went away.

So the smoke is still in the room. and dunno why my sis is so damn high!

So we end up lighting up candles and took some photos to entertain ourselves while waiting for my aunt.
