Wreck It Ralph With The Ladies

-

The movie with Angela, Wendy & Xiuling, was an extension of my birthday celebration, which Angela was unable to make it when Xiuling & Wendy did my advance birthday celebration on 1 Dec. This was my second time that I went into the movie late, thanks to Xiuling & Angela who was rather late for the movie.

I decided to play the Santa Claus with the ladies after the movie. Angela & Wendy were particularly apologetic that they did not prepare any gifts for us, and mentioned to me & Xiuling that they were be getting souvenirs for us when they are back from their holidays to Taiwan & Thailand respectively.

The movie was a good laugh but I felt that the princess was singled out for some bad treatment, just like what I felt when I was the subject of bad treatment during my NS days.

This was what Xiuling gave me as part of the Christmas gift exchange.

Thanks to my dear sis for the Famous Amos cookies. =)

Today’s outing with the ladies allowed me to discover the smartness of Angela which I had no doubt of previously. She actually said that Shaw cinemas sell expensive tidbits, popcorns & drinks. She suggested that we get them from Fairprice Xtra, which was really value for money, although I ended up buying the pack of popcorn that was uncooked. Angela actually shared with Xiuling how to bake the popcorn. The funny part was that she was also able to guess my gift for them like what Cynthia did last night.

I think I should change my gift next year, subject to my bonus in the Year 2013. =)

Pantang- Meaning Things Not To Do In Hokkien

There are certain things which some Chinese are pretty particular with:- Happy and sad events can't clash together within 100 days to a year. If a relative or loved one were to pass away, the immediate family member can't attend a happy event, like wedding & housewarming. The Teochews treat their eldest male grandchild as their youngest son. If you are getting married & your friend who is getting married invites you to his wedding, u are not allowed to attend. The old people say happy events clash. The red packet can't be given twice for a happy event. Likewise for the condolence packet. One should not give shoes or lamp to a birthday boy or gal, as it is believed that you may bring the person to his deathbed. These are some interesting stuff to share, especially to some blog readers who are not living in a place filled with Chinese.

I guess Darling, SR & Rich want to watch "Memiors of A Geisha", especially after the ladies were so engrossed in the book at MPH during our last meeting. It can be afternoon or nite show, but afternoon is preferred as I would like to avoid the crowd shopping for CNY goodies & clothes. I would like to call the following people.

I started my day early today at 8.30am. I was helping my mum with the flower decoration & slept at 1am last night. Had received CNY sms messages from my ex colleague, LS, Angela, Rebecca, Darling, Caifeng, Huixuan, Huiyu, Mac, Jaslyn, Joey, Candy , Kelvin, Rich & Mike. Thanks for all your well wishes, my friends. The 1st stop was at my grandma's place, which we were lucky to get a cab almost immediately after waiting for just a short while. In the ride, my mum & I were chatting casually about some issues that happened in S'pore recently, when we actually touched on the old cobbler cheating Vietnamese gals to be his bride. The cabby told us an incident that happened to his friend. His friend, a guy aged 39 had married a Thai gal aged 23 some years ago. Soon after, they became parents to a baby boy. When the boy turned 3, the gal took away the money in the joint bank account with her husband. The savings totalled to about $100,000, which the guy had saved for years fr...
