so yes...we started the movie watching on valentine's starting with brownie ice-cream, brownies bought from this brownie shop at taka. went shopping with my mil to buy cny stuff, saw this horror customer which i hope he didn't see me (SG is so super small..), and bought new curtains...deep red (which now has made our room more like hotel room..cos it's still dark in the mornings...and that's why we've been oversleeping the past day or two).
so movie no.1 - Spanglish. Rating: **
meaningful story but so so
and for the 1st time i went to chinatown during cny season
it isn't as bad as the horror muachee packed stories i heard..but the deco really, some are like kids play.
but in attempt to inject some cny-ness to our home i bought this paper cutting i've been raving abt since i saw it at raffles city..this small one is $1 while i bought another larger one for $5...cheaper than at raffles city. not much since i can't stand those drama colourful decos. so...hmm..i wonder if i'll be too lazy to take it out..gee.
reunion dinner was the start of all the gorging and endless eating. this is like 5 times what we 9 ppl and 3 kids can eat...not forgettng the bowl of shark fin and the laoyusheng we ate before this.
and cny is great time to see the boys..esp the smallest one catching up on the walking, talking and mischief.
and they mutilated the snake while they were here...poor snake it had quite a hard time being wrapped around, twisted, rubbed at the gate (so now it's kinda blacked & dirty), and dragged all over the floor. it's interesting how they aren't too afraid of it like some of my other stuffed toys...maybe it looked too friendly.
no.2 is still so cute...
he's so drama!
some cny-ness for the next 13 days! (and i still got 2 more movies to clear watching...i borrowed 7..it's mad).
meanwhile hoping for some good news this coming week.
it's Ash Wed this wed. how timely...preparing for gd friday once the cny public holidays r over.
