From a little banlat session, we made it all the way to Casino on second day of cny.
I told you the dog shit worked!!! I was the winner! but somehow my appearance seemed to get everybody else in the table lose : for example, the two "elegant" Filipino ladies besides me.
I might not know the game, trying to split two face cards and got yelled at!
F lady1: "nonono you cannot split the card like that...."
me: "oh ok, pulled my money back"
F lady2: "yea....*started mumbling some shit*"
*dealer gave me a sympathy look and continued dealing*
wise guy next to me : "bla bla bla bla......." *trying to explain to me why i shouldnt split which i still didnt get it *
F lady 1: "if you are betting 100$, we ll respect that, but we have more money on the table than you..."
me : *GASP!!!*
ok! i apologize for my gesture but was the last comment really necessary!?
in the end, i did enjoy a little pleasure of seeing them losing......bite me!
after eating too much......darling and kenny got into the mooooood...

Chaos
Its chinese new year's eve (除夕夜）- China town was busy busy, we already bought 80$ worth of grocery last night and still needed two trips to china town. Now I understood what my mom was saying - " tee tee buey tee buey, ming kia kana buey beh liao ani kuan, wah keh nee xiang kah ai pah jian kai yam liow" ( I kept buying and buying is like never ending, cny for me is like storing up food upon war)
But of coz my case isnt as extreme as hers. Better yet, darling suggested we should do "steamboat" , so senang lah, just buy all the balls, meat, etc...kan tak payah masak? So I carried hundreds of bags in my hands + Pooky, and I noticed he was doing his squating pose, So i dragged him hopefully we could make another block to reach the store. BUT NO! he really had to go and finally did it under the tree - GOD DAMN IT! I had to drop those heavy bags and pick up after him. So we kept walking and one of the plastic bag decided to fail on me and all my cans and kun tao started falling off on the street, gosh I was so frustrating!! I had to drop those bags again and pick them up. Can you picture me with messy hair and clumsily picking up those kun tao?
Gosh! I cant picture the cny when I have kids....is going to be chaos!
I happened to come across a maggie mee contest and saw those TV commercials few days ago, so I finally bought some maggie mee from china town "asam laksa" and "kari" flavor + Yeo's air tebu - wahhhhh feeeel so at home, it was the most satisfying lunch I havent had in a long long time.
and I dunno if this is good luck? I smelled something funky and tried to look around the store floor to check if pooky pooped somewhere, (yes again!), turned out! i stepped kao si!! and ironically I felt happy coz I think that means I will be having good fortune in coming pig's year. teeeheee!
