新年初二

Second day of the new year. My relatives came over in the morning to visit. Although we had already gathered and met yesterday at my grandmother's house, it was our yearly tradition to go visit each others house on the second day of the new year. Just that this year, there were only three houses on the list, although I only went to two out of the three.

They came and watched 满城尽带黄金甲。Quite a dumb thing to do since the storyline was bad and all that. The only part worth watching is the ending, where 据花台 is being played. Yes, it is that bad. So they came and ate the new year goodies, watched the movie and did an annual inspection of the house.

So they came and lingered for a while before moving on to my 叔叔's house. There, we did almost that same things. Except that the movie was Blood Diamond instead of 满城尽带黄金甲. I left after finishing the 鱼生. Took a cab down to Punggol to pick Hoiting then we went to Bishan to meet Ray and Junsheng. Cab fare was a whopping $20.

They came to my place to rot for a while after we left J8. There Weisheng joined us and we went to Hougang plaza for our scheduled Kbox session. Yiang Shan joined us later. Kbox session was fun, but expensive. In a short span of four hours, we burnt over two hundred dollars in total. Junsheng was the one who sung the least. Bathroom singer Miss Tso surprised everyone with her soprano voice and Miss Sng showed her other side to us.

初二was spent with friends at the expense of family time. I guess it was worth it after all.
