Class of 1996.

It was finally a real gathering for the class of 1996 after almost ten years. Tho' we see each other once in a while, they were mostly for the not-so-good occasions. So I am very glad we had this BBQ today at Pasir Ris Park, although the turnout wasn't very good. Perhaps during the next one, maybe the 10th year get-together or something, there'll be more people going. Tho' few people, it was definitely memorable - BBQ under the rain with three umbrellas.

It was also first time I went to a BBQ where we had to "ration" the food, two crab sticks, two hot dogs, 3 chicken wings, etc for each person. I think its good, cuz there's no waste of food. Just 'nuff for everyone. In the end, we still had some bee hoon left for some good old fun - 终极密码。 I had like about 4 cups of bee hoon. ha ha. And it ended we a game of hearts.

We have come a long way since the secondary school days, the wonder years, the soccer days, the carefree times. I am very happy, everyone has graduated from uni, mostly engineers and engineers to be. This time we talked about jobs, perhaps next we'll talk about marriages or children? lol.

And talk about having job offers at the weirdest place. We were waiting for our transport at the bus stop when an Indian young man approached us. He said he had three shops in sim lim and overheard our conversations that we knew something about computers. He would like to hire us as technicians. lol.

I will post photos of the outing once they are available.(provided I look ok in those pictures =p). And maybe some convo pictures as well? =)

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

If you have it, just flaunt it.

Its such a lousy day, I have decided to blog another entry. Yesh, I am thinking about things other than my last two papers on Thurs and Friday. Something probably talked alot before by many people... What is it with men and women with 可爱-oooii *杨丞琳's voice* face, long tresses, slim legs, curvey body, in revealing tight clothes (only for those with the former characteristics), in pink. Why are men so attracted to those features? The guy is lying if he says he will not turn his head when he sees women with those features. I think it has nothing to do with men being lustful or anything disgusting. It probably has something to do with the genes, the hormones. I don't believe it has to do with things like its men's nature instinct to look for partners who can reproduce blahblahblah. That's so boring! Its something mysterious, something that let men derives pleasure by just looking openly, without doing anything bad or harmful or immoral. Do women ogle at men all the time too

Dreaming About You.

I usually leave my handphone on during the night (just in case if anyone want to contact me urgently, eg. a friend in need of help etc). But I think I will be leaving my phone off from now on. Why? In the wee hours this morning, I received three continuous sms . I forced myself outta bed to read the message, thinking it must be something very important. I surprised to read that they were messages from " Dreamchat ", telling me that " someone is dreaming of me ". Oh great! What a good reason to wake me up! It also asked me to call this 1900 number to listen to the message. There was even a member id at the end... So someone still wide awake in the middle of the night decided to use this wonderful service to let me know he/she is dreaming of me leh. wah seh. I immediately deleted the messages and went back to sleep. Knowing I will just have a few more hours of my six hours daily sleep time left. How did this " Dreamchat " thingy got my handphone number?
