An amazing CNY pyrotechnics display that speaks tons of volume.... the Merdeka celebration one can take a backseat to this.
Missed out most of the day time action as i was working night shift for the 1st & 2nd day of CNY. Less visiting outings as this year, novelty of CNY marathon visitings wearing out year after year. After all it's the quality that matters, rather than the quantity. Hectic as it maybe, packed schedules/clashing schedules & etct.. it's always been great to be able meet up with some old-time acquaintances & friends, most of whom are only in town during this time of the year.
1st Day
Was hardly in holiday mood during the 1st 2 days. Had to sleep thru the day only to roam as zombies in the fab during nightfall. Gate-crashed at Edwin's place at the strike of midnight during our supper break for a stomach filling affair. Eating in at company cafeteria when everyone else on full swing celebrating would have been too pathetic to even contemplate.
2nd Day
Dropped by Adrian & Faith's new place in the middle of the night for a break. For a moment, i thought i was stepping into an IKEA showroom. Photos are mostly of Home & Living type... perhaps after seeing so many of my friends settling down & getting a place of their own. I think i have caught the 'wind' too.
Simply cool. Hey, maybe we can have our own private bar here =p
Mr Samurai
& his prized collections
I'd like to have a love shack like this one...
& also a complete entertainment room to go along with
Going ga-ga-ga over tech gadgets
PS2, PSP - hardcore gamers wouldn't do without
A wireless keyboard (everything oso wireless!)
& a comfy mouse pad
3rd Day
Finally getting my holiday. Barely slept 4 hours after returning from work early morning. Had a big envoy of friends & colleagues dropping by for a visit (1st) during the afternoon, before embarking on a outing trip with Marvin, Lydia & Christina.
Christina's new place. Impressive; not too many neighbourhoods have a security booth at the entrance of every lorongs
43" plasma TV. I'd find every excuse not to leave the couch if i had one
Retired early for the night after visiting a couple more friends including Roy's place to wrap up this year's edition of MTV Cribs. - think beautiful homes.
Roy's charming poochie greeting us Gong Xi Fatt Chai
4th Day
It was already high noon when i woke up. Went for an afternoon show at the cineplex; the much anticipated Ghost Rider... did not quite lived up to its hype i thought. Too much of a kiddy movie. Too much storyline crammed into an hour plus movie - character development much lacking. Only got to visit Colina late evening before retiring home for yet another much needed nap. Tire easily these days.
Finally seeing some clubbing action late night. Chilled out with Christina & friends at Amoebar in downtown Travillion.
Chicken chop, green tea & chivas. Suprisingly, a good blend
5th Day
Last day of break. Had lunch with parents outside. Not too many eating outlets are open yet, & sadly most are still charging CNY prices (20% - 40% mark-up). Nabeh, big businesses also demand ang pow meh?
Getting caught in lunch hour traffic
