Paternal annual BBQ (Vesak Day).



0122


Location was at Yishun Safra, and even though I've been there for a few times I still don't know how to get there. Pops, being the usual him, was very sure I'll get lost so he asked me to just get a cab instead. Most of the time it's something like:


Pops: "Where are you?"

Me: "At home, going out soon."

Pops: "Meeting where?"

Me: "Yishun Safra."

Pops: "You know how to go meh? You meeting your friends or not?"

Me: "I reach Yishun already then worry. Going alone."

Pops: "You will get lost lah. Go take cab ok? I pay."

I can't decide if he is trying to spoil me or he thinks I'm just plain stupid to get there. =_= I don't wanna turn into those people that wastes most of their money on cabs, especially those that complains that they're poor because they spent almost everything on travelling.

A lot of food desu, my ulcer grew bigger as a result. I must thank the chicken wings and the satays because they played a big part into making my life miserable. I've been applying Bonjela on my ulcer everyday for at least 5 times but it didn't get smaller.


Good job! This is what we call "tough"!

A lot of relatives couldn't recognize me. It's like I waved to them and said hello, but they were stunned and asked one of my cousins who am I.


...........IT'S MEEEEEEEEEEEE YINGYING!! T___T



Okay to be honest I don't know why but my paternal relatives have been calling me "Yingying" (direct pronouciation means "hard hard") since I was young even though my full name doesn't even have a "Ying" inside.


Full name: Esther The Great Shi Yun-sama.


On my maternal side, my grandmother calls one of my female cousins "Guitar" even though her name is like.. not musically related. But for your reference, my cousin's name is Krystal. I think the older generation have a unique way of interpreting our names. Maybe I should suggest to my grandmother to call me "Bass" instead. (Y)

Cousins. One of my cousins, the one in red, looks like Amos! I told Amos himself a few years ago that I have one cousin that look like him and I showed him his picture yesterday. Oh wait, before that, I showed Yiuliang first.


I went to search for one picture of my cousin and I told Yiuliang to tell me the first person he thought of when he saw the picture. He was like, "Amos. LOL"


So I went to show Amos the picture also! But at first he was like, "No idea, don't know who is that." So I sort of got a bit too excited and typed "DON'T YOU THINK THIS PERSON LOOKS LIKE YOU??????"


And he replied, "Lols. Actually got abit."



HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Halfway through the BBQ, it rained! So we sought shelter at the lobby.

But the rain stopped afterwards so we continued the BBQ upstairs. A bit off topic but I can't wait to show Kah Hao the picture and ask if he can see the resemblance. Waku waku!

I went for the BBQ feeling awkward because from my family, I was the only representative and before that, I don't really talk to my cousins (I am otaku desu so topic-wise confirm is like heaven and earth) but I'm quite glad it turned out alright.


Although most of my relatives (except my cousins) speaks hokkien and I can't understand, but when they praise me I understand. JIN SWEE!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

Yesterday, Pops was like (singlish version):


Pops: "How was the gathering yesterday?"

Me: "Not bad, but a lot of people cannot recognize me."

Pops: "How come?"

Me: "Don't know. But they said I very pretty yesterday (LOL)."

Pops: "You don't haolian lah you pretty. So many pretty girls out there you think you only one meh."

Me: "=_= They praise me also not I praise myself. But when they saw me they were like "O.O This is Ah Fong's (my mom) daughter is it?!!"

Pops: HUH? Why they say Ah Fong's daughter and not Ah Yeow's daughter?!!

Me: GOT DIFFERENCE MEH? She is my mother you are my father why you so particular! Anyway, good question. And I can tell you the answer. You see ah, Chinese New Year you also don't go back, normally you also don't see them, the only time you went back was like 2 years ago. You still go and tell Si Lin "Must keep in touch!", you bullshit a lot hor. Ask we all keep in touch you yourself don't know disappear till where.

Pops: *Trying to contain his smile* Aiyahhhhhhh you all keep in touch can already lahhhhh.




Why my father like that one ah.
