cindy hugging her "fortune pig" for this yr didnt realise we spent ard 2-3 hrs there til 5plus so instead of going hm as planned, headed straight to bishan to meet with my ex-jap class frenz for our usual cny gathering. went to visit dave's new hse @ bishan. didnt manage to take picz coz my battery died on me at the temple. had japanese flavoured pizza from oishii pizza (not intentionally but coz pizza hut refuse to take our order coz it was raining). watched an andy lau movie on scv n played some card games while watching man u vs liverpool match :P... called it a nite early coz me had class the next day (n haven finish hw) n another 2 had work the next day.
last day of cny was spent hving jap class (where i met an ex-tpjc schoolmate fr 10yrs back whom i hv no idea was but recognised me n even know i was fr commerce... i must be veri recognisable or veri "famous" back then ;p), squeezing into the guan yin temple at bugis st (& got burned by joss stick, luckily only my bag strap kena), n going for the ikea sale at tampines with dad...
