Images from my old home.

No, this picture below is not from the childhood years. I think I have seen a couple or more people putting pictures from MVM's Xmas decorations on their blogs now. The place is such a hit.

Made me have second thoughts about putting the same thing on mine. But I suppose 1 or 2 won't hurt la, hoh?

No wonder. It is really a huge crowd during weekends. I was there for 2 days berturut-turut last weekend. Crazy. I guess some of the times, you can't help joining in the fun pushing and shoveling around.

We have GSC vouchers and took the kids to watch Madagascar 2. And, there was a Modern Home and Property Fair. We bought some home appliances and some properties as well to make our parking fee worthwhile. (wishful thinking!)

But wait, yes, we did buy something. The water taps to replace the fountain-making taps in our homes, and the juicer/blender/chopper after watching the demonstration. It is redundant, but the part where I can make it handy to make soyabean milk so conveniently sealed their deal with us. Sigh.. poor flers like us, got conned into parting with our money so easily.

This is my home where I grew up in. My parents told me we moved in when I was 3 months old and from then, I slept with my brothers in 1 room already, leaving my mom alone to be in a world of her own with my dad at nights. So young I was so well-behaved! :)

The colors of our first family portrait had gone like this. What a pity. See my left hand in the picture? I remembered nothing except that I kept putting my left hand on my mom's hands, and she kept putting it away and the result, I seemed to have lost my left limb. What kind of trash I keep in my memory, I have no idea.

This is our 2nd family portrait, and we took it before my elder brother depart overseas for his high school education. I had practised smiling in front of the mirrors for the hundredth time and during the photo shoot, the photographer told me to be natural, and this the end result. Like a pakchi-mui indeed, I agree.

The first addition of family member. I remember nothing in this picture except I felt my legs dem cold. Oh, and the white frock was specially chosen by my sis-in-law and my brother, wanting to get me something nice and special for their wedding day. I am still keeping it, in the years to come, I wonder if my dotter would like it? Regrettable hairstyle, made me looked 10 years older.

Of all family portraits, I think I looked best in this one, unfortunately the background really sucks big time. Can see until tau-fah-ngan-luen, right? The 2 little babies in there are so grown up now. When I was wedded, the tai-kam-jea said we shouldn't take family portrait with the bride's family as I'm considered the "thrown-away water". 4-8-poh!

Thus, that wasn't anymore studio family portraits which is enlarged and displayed proudly on the wall in our living room other than those above. Right now, there are 16 of us, I really do wish we can take one for remembrance, but I am not too confident if we can have it before someone say byebye. *sob*


Dinner. We are a bunch of carnivores today, deboning the roast pork like hungry lions in the afternoon and tearing off the grilled chicken like sap-yun-9-sau. I bought the roast pork home from my hometown, supposedly as a treat for my banker. See see he told me he's not coming home for dinner, and we have no choice but to finish it off for him. So full until I can't eat anymore now.

Eh, the story for today jumped up and down, with no flow or relation to each other one? Aiks. who cares, as if anyone reads this.
