Excursion and dinner with family

Sun 080209

Woke around 7am again -_- cant seem to wake up later all the time.. anyway went breakfast with mum at the newly renovated jurong west market~ we had fish porridge~ smooth as always then did some marketing with her.. gosh..it's like a battle zone inside.. people squeezing all around me, LUCKILY I am tall enough to spot my mum among the crowd hahhaha

Went back home, trimmed snoopi boy then bathed him.. another battle zone.. I was all wet and soapy after him..
Dear arrived around 12pm just in time for lunch. Mum fried "nian gao" again.. significance of eating "nian gao" was to "nian nian" have something auspicious.

After lunch, dear brought me for an excursion. I couldnt help but to feel excited like a schoolgoing child again.. hmm wait I am. minus the child part hahah
We went all the way to Kranji to see the farms and fish ponds and reservoir and the beach.
My uncle used to bring my family to the explore those wetlands.. and its the first time in years that I see mangrove swamps again.
It was all fun again like geography class.. we saw a few families there too.. it's so much better than letting the kids sit in front of com the whole day..

We then headed for another prawning trip after that.
Not too bad woh.. well at least to us.. 13 catches for 2 hrs ..I caught maybe less than half.. dear kept saying its the technique.. haiz.. must have more patience and practice.

We then headed back home to fetch family for the last of our "chinese new year celebration dinner" at DIAN XIAO ER.

And it was all photos after that.

Dear came back with us for a little gambling of poker and headed home after that.
I lost $2bucks and the xiao mei won $16 bucks with 50cent bets..

And now its back to preparing the assignments.. and V DAY~@
I am still at a loss for ideas..
