慘敗。慶功。
29 January 2009 Thursday | CNY 09

沒買新衣 也沒辦年貨
這個春節的支出卻是史無前例的
往年都只給父母親獻上紅包
今年開始為幾位長輩送上祝福
三伯母頻搖頭 輕聲說我還沒結婚 不必給紅包
我拉著她的手 也輕聲回答 你拿吧 我沒那麼快成家

都說今年屬羊的人財運不佳了
我從年除夕一路輸到年初三凌晨
最慘的是還日日夜夜借肉乾消愁
我得接受心靈輔導也急需瘦身代言

年初二環島大團拜
最後一站 葉小嫻笑傲江湖
眾人欲哭無淚 互相指責
都是你 是你把她叫來的
都是你 是你加注我才有樣學樣的

年初三林小芝發來簡訊 廣邀各路人馬赴慶功宴
是她連哄帶騙 要大贏家請客
葉小嫻姍姍來遲
我推測 一定是故意的 她要我們等她 然後喝水飽
點菜時就不能點太多 我們千萬不要上當 哇哈哈
辣椒螃蟹 黑胡椒螃蟹 芋泥帶子 鹹蛋蝦 一一上桌
我和吳小萍急忙喊到 我們是最大輸家 應該由我們先開動

感謝葉小嫻慷慨撥出總利潤的百分之20 :)

對了 我要專心看講義做功課 沒空玩牌
你們別再找我ok

Answers to stop all that questioning.
28 January 2009 Wednesday | -

R, M, L and I were at A’s place on Tuesday afternoon. In between bak kwa and pineapple tarts, we came up with a set of answers that will put a stop to the incessant interrogation that occurs every CNY.

Q: So hor, when are you getting married huh?

A1. Waiting for him/her to get a divorce.

A2. Waiting for him/her to turn 16.

A3. Waiting for the government to legalise same sex marriages.

Moo Moo!

大年初一頭一天 家家戶戶去拜年
甚少在年初一沿家挨戶拜年
我都乾脆在一個小房間向全國聽眾說吉祥話。
到現在還是有朋友疑惑地問 你為甚麼要在春節工作 不能由其他人頂替嗎
咳唷 都習慣了

我過去十多個農曆新年(以及元旦/聖誕等節日)還不都在工作
況且 是誰說工作的人就不能盡情玩樂
除夕夜 吃了團圓飯 拿了首倫壓歲錢
我和那班usual suspects相約倒數
途中受慫恿 到了添油站
米缸要常滿 油缸也要嗎

討論著鳳梨塔高脂高糖高熱量的同時 還是忍不住猛往嘴里塞
撲克牌 麻將 就連和新年扯不上邊的Taboo都能成為賭的工具
據說屬羊的人財運不佳
我在牛年的前幾個小時就深深感受到了
但勝敗不是重點 大家開心就好 哈哈
那是輸了錢之後安慰自己的話

沒刻意為春節置裝 又無法從新衣堆里找到一件顏色鮮艷的
最後穿了一件舊的紅襯衫 拖著在香港買的Gucci包出門
還沒用過 這是新的 我說

年初二 團拜邀約不斷 恐怕沒法一一前往
我太久太久沒見那些看著我長大的丁家長輩
還有從小玩到大的堂表兄弟姊妹
所以 我要是沒出現在你家 我不是不重視你
就覺得應該多把一些時間留給家人

:)


好牌 曇花一現 接著就。。。

恭賀新禧!Happy Niu Year!
25 January 2009 Sunday | CNY 09

恭喜發財 紅包拿來!

自己年紀不小了,也開始不好意思拿紅包。呵呵。這幾年都已經習慣把整疊紅包原封不動地收在抽屜裡。在這兒呼籲一下:即將派紅包給我的長輩(和同輩),壓歲錢多寡是其次,祝福最重要。

新年快樂 萬事如意!

肖羊的人犯(還是沖?)太歲。那天看了某大師寫的09運程,差點就萬念俱灰切腹了斷。(呸!呸!呸!過年不要亂講話。)

。。。非常不利。宜凡事低調,否則恐會錢財虛耗、功虧一簣。不如意事或層出不窮,宜小心戒備。工作方面動蕩不安、財運非常不利。

船到橋頭自然直。兵來將擋水來土掩。Por bee por bee.

Very studious.
24 January 2009 Saturday | Platform 9¾

Oh my, I have two assignments to hand in by mid Feb. They constitute 25% for each of the two modules I’m taking this term. I wouldn’t say that I’m completely lost, but I reckon I have a lot of reading to do. There are lawyers, teachers, civil servants and even a young entrepreneur in my class, so I suppose they will be much more conscientious hor.

I was in bed the entire day, as the rest of Singapore busied themselves with New Year preparations. In between a couple of naps, I was thumbing my lecture notes and a textbook which curiously resembled what a primary school kid would read.

The most frequently asked question I encountered this week was if I received special treatment or attention in school. No, there weren’t any reserved parking lots. And there weren’t any vending machines stocked with Coke outside my classroom. Hahaha. I breezed through the first lesson on Monday, and excitedly told my friends, “Great. No one knows who I am! I’m free like a bird!”

At the session on Friday evening, I silently muttered an uh oh when the tutor wanted ‘to get to know us better’. I was rather hesitant in talking about my day job, when the row of ladies behind me volunteered, “Oh, he’s a DJ lor.

Cover blown. *coughs*
