HaBuk
Had dimsum brunch with C and Ad prior to BANGAU viewing. Missed the char siew and siew yuk earlier; else will not order so many fishmaws. Worthy of the RM spent after staff disc. FRESH. DELICIOUS. Viewing began at BANGAUs; then PPRIMA, TEMPUA, BAYAN and BK before returning to BANGAU for second viewing. VALUE FOR MONEY.. only for u, M2.
Mobile battery flat. Bubbly MQ dropped by just to gimme her autograph for the Supreme 3-11 minus the magical 16-digit. Brader Kev waited for 1 solid hour. SORRY MAN!! Mini La-Sallian gathering sorta. Bought a DVD player for Andy. Gotta split early as I need to tapao vegetarian food for sis. Obviously there was nothing 'edible' at cousin JL's house warming for her. I understand eating vegies are healthy but I'll limp without meat. NO poRK NO faRK. Reached there in time to catch the guys sending Uncle P home. DRUNK. Had a great time with my maternal relatives. Haven't met some of them in years although we do keep in touch. Visitation is getting lesser after the demise of Granny, Uncle C and Mom. Nevertheless, I still make it a point to visit some of them during CNY as some will be back with their in-laws. TIMING. EFFORTS. WILLINGNESS.
Got abit tipsy after some beers and wines. Have not seen my aunts and cousins drinking happily together in years. The very last time was at my place, BBQ 01052004. Gonna plan for something again.. surely.
I'm elated I can help C and Ad; be part of their various stages and moments in life. So as her cousin, MQ, protection and medical fund for a start. I'm proud of cousin JL's achievements. We all are. Real life example of a woman of substance; from rags to riches. One of my joyest day this year. HAppy + maBUK.. I miss this feeling. I REALLY DO.
