Kelward ORD loh...

Weather:
We are having steamboat at my place today to celebrate Kelward's ORD. Too bad priscilla can't join us cause she have to mug for her exams. That ORD guy is not sure what he want to do after National Service (NS). He said maybe he will find some work. I wish everything will go well for him. Woke up early today to get buy all the food and prepare them before dinner. Bought alot of good food today. We have chicken, pork, beef, tiger prawns, squid, flower crabs, scallops and shua la. Bought the seafood from a shop selling live seafood at pasir panjang. It's really fresh man. The best time to get their seafood is around 1600hrs.

All the shells and close up of the cockles.
Look at the tongue of the cockles. So funny. That shows that it's ALIVE.

The look of the shop and the uncle is working hard to pack the fishes.

Fishballs.
Not buying it cause we already bought miniature ones at wet market.

Ooo. Lobster! That is really a huge one.
Though can't really differentiate the size in the pictures.
Besides the lobster was the red flower crabs.

Oh hx..why are you here? Oops.
Okay. That crab on the left was a fierce one.
I think whoever bought it will enjoy the crab taste. It will be really sweet.

Those are the dead ones but still fresh somehow. So it depends on what you want and willing to pay.

Prawns. Didn't get those from them also.
Got tiger prawns for our steamboat at the market.

Some interesting seafoods. Not sure what are the name of those.

In the end, we bought the red flower crabs instead of the normal ones.
This steamboat is really really going to be SWEET.

Both of my cousins and that is the layout of our steamboat fiesta.

Hx disturbing kelward while he is sleeping soundly.

Hx caught on camera trying to tape his toes together.

The steamboat was really good man. All the seafood added into the soup. It just makes the soup oh so sweet and tasty. Each person cost for this steamboat is about $16. I don't really mind having another steamboat sometime soon. I guess everyone enjoy their dinner today.

Sending little brother at the airport

Weather:
Sending little brother off to the airport at 5.30am in the morning. He is off for a school trip to Hong Kong with his classmates, schoolmates and teachers. How nice he gets to go to Hong Kong for his school trip. I only get to go to Chiangmai, Thailand for my school trip during my secondary school days. I felt quite embarassed by one of my brother's male teacher. His teacher kind of shouted out their names to collect their entrance pass from him. His voice was kind of loud to me as it was like so early in the morning and I'm at the airport. Maybe he got used to using that kind of voice on students in the classroom eh. Hope brother enjoy his trip though it's a short one.

Late late late...

Weather:
Oh my. I was super duper late for work today. Oh ! I was about one and half hours late. No more next time man. So scary. After reaching office, I wasn't that efficient at work today too. Aiyo. I was really tired. Eh~ Can't really remember what I did last night. Waste another day away at work. Hope I could start working efficiently tomorrow.

Chalet @ Pasir Ris Park

Weather:
Dearest's mom had a chalet at Pasir Ris Park (Elias Rd) from friday to sunday. The bungalow was quite big. All the aunties there also seem to have a good time. They almost played mahjong all day long. Phew~ I paid $1.50 to learn my one round of mahjong on the last night. Although there is one aunty that I don't really like, she doesn't spoil my mood for having lots of fun. Oh! Mr Louis Fantasia (dearest's home dog) was there with us too. He too had alot of fun being a bully to the birds and cats and getting bullied other big bungalow dogs.

That is the first floor of the big bungalow.
All the aunties start playing their mahjong on the first day we are there til the last day.
2nd Floor is all the rooms and the toilet. Can't take the rooms cause aunties stuffs are in it.

That's the BBQ area and the parking area.
Parking area can park at least 3 cars in a straight row.

In the end, dearest and brother with 2 aunties also start to play mahjong on the first night.
Only left me not playing any mahjong. So I only sat there and watch and take pictures.

2nd day morning: All gathered at the table playing bingo. Per card you take is $0.50.
So if one person got the bingo, prize money is about $7 a round.
Quite fun to play with the betting of course.

BBQ time at night: Jiaxin's boyfriend and dearest is doing something at the pit, which I don't know what and brother is just looking.
And I took pictures with one who satay stick of fresh BBQ scallops. Yummy!

This is Mr Louis Fantasia. How can we forget this cute little fella.
Haha. He can only see all of us eat. Poor doggie! Growling whole evening.

Little brother, Jiaxin and her boyfriend Jeremy

Aunties are so hip. They started dancing shortly after the BBQ.
Keke. They really had alot of fun as they were laughing and all.
* Dearest's mom is the one in green *

After all the exercising and the BBQ-ing, they also use this time to celebrate two November babies.

That is the cake. I never had a piece of it. Oops!
Doesn't look that tempting to me.
