what a tiring day. got asked to do so much work and this and that. bleah. uncle raymond came at around 3. the rest of them came a little later, then came the wives. played cards. to be precise, blackjack or ban luck, the usual chinese new year card game. sometimes i really wonder how people can get so much thrill just out of mere deck of poker cards. if they weren't invented, people wont gamble, get into heavy debts, and in the worst circumstance, lose their lives. i dont think it's worth losing that particular amount of money just to get excited or thrilled. there're definitely more ways than just gambling itself. now how on earth did i change topic so quickly? so back to my story about today. i was rather pissed with this auntie 'dunno who'. which is the reason why i didnt bother to find out her name. heck. i just came back from my jog and went down to help mum with the food etc. when she saw me, she said to my mum
'wah! your daughter so tall. primary school or secondary school?'
mum: ' just finished sec school'
auntie dunno who [turning red in her face due to embarrassment]: oh, ok
i was so damn pissed with her lor. then i thought to myself, if i'm in primary school, and since you're way shorter and smaller than me, you must be kindergaten! for goodness sake use your brain can or not? wl. do i look like i'm in primary school? if so, do let me know. this must be a nig joke. har. har.
on the whole the night was an enjoyable one. but the drinking part wasnt too good. at least i managed to watch the last episode of my lucky charm. missed last few days' episode due to house visits. bleah. the ending was quite a disappointment actually. lixiang didnt end up with jk. and it was quite a predictable one. especially the one about lixiang and the guy with a mole on his foot. where got such a coincidence. i realised that mediacorp chinese drama serials also have good endings. perhaps they should try to create more suspense and leave the story hanging when it ends. suspense normally gives shows good viewer-counts. obviously right. duh. i feel that this is what channel 8 shows lack. in retrospect, i think the show was enjoyable and entertaining, and the setting is what singaporeans are familiar with, something that's close to the heart. the artistes were chosen appropriately for their respective roles, but the story line is so-so only. yup. looks like i've just written a tv commentary. whhatever for.
alright. gonna sleep now. got new blanket and pillow case. and they're matching! good night! wish you fair skies and sunny weather!
