Visitation

19th February 2007

This was one interesting day. Funny how i always dread visitations but i end up enjoying myself quite a bit! Well today it was the meeting of the cousins. Not mine, but my mum's! Her cousins decided to meet up together and well, catch up! So i went along... haha OOPS i admit, half of the ang paos and also to see how my second cousins look like! The children of my mum's cousins that is... And... mmm interesting. VERY interesting. I WAS THE OLDEST KID THERE! -faint- For how many thousand of years i was the baby of the family (my mum's sisters: my direct cousins) and now...??? I'm the OLDEST?! Shucks... I'm OLD OLD OLD! So well anyway, all the family history came out during this tea reunion thing. GUESS WHAT? I might as well not learn chinese already. I can just give up my chinese heritage and take on the indonesian heritage. It's not even malay, it's INDONESIAN, like TRADITIONAL INDONESIAN! My loisa cna turn into a...a... what's an indonesian name for loisa? Anyway, my relatives came from Madan and some funny village. arrange marriages between the Indonesians and Chinese and... whatever else. Ask me for the long version of teh story. Right now i'm too scatter-brained to talk properly.

ps: My china relatives, as in the tiny bit that came form china (thank goodness i'm not prue indonesian or my head will swirl; i'm not syaing it's a bad thign though), they speak DIALECTS. NOT CHINESE, so people, now you understand why my chinese is........................................zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

20th February 2007

Whew TODAY... my apprehension was even stronger then yesterday's. I guess cause my family is the only one with ONE KID (poor me) and all the other families have two three FOUR children! *screams* Okay today was the church reunion, my old old like REALLY old church. Jonathan's church too! But ah well, he wasn't there cause he's WAY too old haha. His generation different from my generation, and different cell group last time too, SO i went there... ALONE. The moment i stepped into the host's house, i went like

"SHOOT! God help me, i'm scared. Who the heck are these people?" Okay, a bit of boasting here... hahaha, i'm usually the one who knows everyone -.- Probably because i was one sociable kid when i was young (Hey i used to kiss everyone in sight, boy girl, young, old, as long as they were human... *kiss*) And then all of a sudden, i just did not recognise everyone!! WHY?!?!?!

Panic attack

So i resorted to self misery. -.- Greeted everyone in sight "Happy New Year" and then went off to get food, proceeding to sit at the table and mutter to myself how single kids shouldn't go to parties... and then.....

*DING*

My knight in shining armour came. -.- Haha nah... They're the erm.. something family. Can't remember surname. Whatever it is, Esmond and the little one, Priscilla (whom i absolutely adore) came! Ahhh! Thank goodness they came. Then again, Esmond told me "Everyone looks foreign here" haha so... i'm not the only lost soul.

*DING*

Two princesses came, Stephanie and Jessica! I waved to them as if there was suddenly a spring in my arm and, and asked them to join me. HALLEJUAH! FRIENDS! So we all settled down to talk. Michelle and lynette chatted with us a little... yep... COOL! =)

Managed to catch up with some real old childhood friends... Haha exhcanged some horror stories of school life and childhood memories... Ahhh bliss. I love them! Had a great timr in a way actually haha. We even watched spongebob squarepants movie (don't ask why) and SANG to the theme song. -.-

When we all parted, it just made me realise how lonely it is something without a peer to talk to, or a younger/older sibling to repond back to you in ENGLISH instead of barking...

Yeah, so was quite lonely all the way back home, and now relating the day's events... and playing with my dog again... hmm NOT SO LONELY ANYMORE! Haha

HOORAY FOR PEBBLES!

ps: MUST get photos from michelle!!
