me dije que hace tres años era la vez última que me caería.
¿Por qué la gente escucha sus corazones? debe haber un manual escrito para ayudar a los que se caigan. ¿puedo realmente ser feliz? deseaba que fuera joven otra vez, juego de la fuerza mis tarjetas con el hin diferentemente.
¿usted me encontrará realmente? no dure por favor demasiado, mi amor.
i miss my spanish classes.. :)

Chinese New Year
Chinese New Year is around the corner! This is the first time in 27 years I am not celebrating this festive season in my home country! First time I am not waking up on brand new bed sheets changing into brand new clothes and running into my mom's room to wish her a prosprous new year ahead and giving her a pair of mandarins and a red packet.
It is going to be the first year that I am not going over to my bestie's house on the third day of CNY to gamble! However, it is a good thing I would still be with family! The cousins have picked perth as the middle destination. The reason is all of us wanna see our little Gem Caitlin! I am dying to hear her call me Yee Yee in return I would give her a BIG red packet!
So to gear up for this festive season what have I been doing? Just yesterday I invited a bunch of friends over for a tiny reunion dinner, I know it is a little early and CNY is not till next week, but I'd be in perth the entire 1st week of CNY, i thought it would be good to do it earlier.
We had a feast i must say! With 2 steam boats bubbling away on the dinning table and accompanied by soft drinks and deep fried chicken wings and Zai-a vegetarian dish an important symbol of longevity and prosperity because of the ingredients used. Also i exerimented with making Bak Kua which literally mean dried meat. It is mince pork marinated rolled into thin slices and dried in the sun and then bbqed. Yums! A must have for all household celebrating CNY. Here are some pics to share!
The ingredients!
Mixing it!

A Melancholy Thirst
Ever felt like you want or needed something so badly you actually feel the ache and pain? Lately I have been feeling like that. Maybe its just how the human emotions work, your brain thinks of something and tells your heart "hey i want that!" Then you heart tells your brain "no you can't have that, its not right for you or its an expensive price to pay". Your brain then absorbs the information and it screams back at your heart "Die you bitch!" and stabs it... ahhh life is a big fat joke! If only we can be contented..

Mr E is away
Aye Mr E.. Miss K asks why is it you didn't reply to your messages.. She sent you a msg this morning.. telling you that you have been missed. I told her you probably didn't have enough battery. You better have a good excuse, auntie k is not happy!
So while Mr E was away. Missy J & K had a fun weekend! We had dinner at Parramatta, Temasek and found a bar/bistro that sort of resembles timbre, we went there for drinks after dinner in hope for a live band. All we go was 10 wooden tables about 15 people and a boring sound man playing music. The atmosphere was alright ambiance was OK, entertainment level sucked! Apparently the live band is on during happy hours from 5pm - 8pm. Looks like the search for a timbre looking place goes on! After dinner we went to have a drive round the city, and took a walk somewhere near the domain. Sat I brought my friends to Mamak to have very expensive roti pratas and some shopping, after which we headed home for dinner, which was made by chef J and all the guest were happily japanified! They had Pork Katsu Don, Miso Soup & Japanese curry. After Dinner the cute canberrean couple were tired, lights out was at 11pm for them. As the couple was going to bed, missy K & J left the house to meet Am & friends for pancakes. Yum.. nothing like a good old plain regular stack! Sunday was a little more relaxing, took the visitors for lunch at our fav taiwan joint but it was packed, so we had to do with the shanghai place nex door, which turns out, the cute couple liked it alo! Once lunch ended we had to say byebye as couple headed to catch their bus back to Canberra. Miss K & J then went to paddy's to get veggies and headed home. A fruitful relaxing weekend ahhhhh.
Next weekend would be about old people bar-ing and the week after would be about camping. :)

Your cold so toes!
That got me laughing really hard after i realized that i said " Your cold so toes" to uncle C.. When i really actually meant to say " your toes are so cold". And Just a few weeks ago I told Vivian while at work.. "lets eat popo cops" today!
So being curious george, I went hunting around the world wide web, the results I got were not very funny!
Some people called it "Spoonerism" and who gave spoonerism its name? - Mr William Archibald Spooner. But his spoonerisms were mostly intentional, which could be hidden messages and secret words. Want to read a list of them visit here, I didnt find them particularly funny though!
So what are the unintentional spoonerisms? Some people say it is a form of dyslexia, And not only children get it, adults can get it when they become older. Dyslexia is a disability in children and it is always misconcepted to be a visually-based reading disability when in reality, it is a language-based disorder. Browsed through the forums, and alot of adults have the mixing of letters problems, and it got worst and they become embarrassed of the way they speak.
Gulps, I better play more Mahjong my brain needs to exercise!
