Mama said it was fun to have dinner like tt together, as a family, including the 2 boys... Said we should do this maybe at least once a month. Not always eat good food, but maybe at home or just nearby places... I think it was good really, to have everyone around, talking and joking and eating and generally making a lot of noise...
And I think mahjong was alright too... Mama had fun although she lost quite a fair share. Papa also won some money... I had to smile to myself when I heard the collective groan outside while I was in the shower. Although I only found out later tt it was an intense round where everyone had 5-tai, at tt moment I just knew tt they were all having fun.
Maybe when Ami finds someone to join us too, then we can have 2 tables of MJ at the same time... =) For now, she will have to sit in between papa and mama at the dinner table.

Who would steal money from a CAT?!
Well, yes. Who would steal money from a cat? A really fat cat??
.jpg)
HE DID!! So evil right?! But I guess when one is hungry and has no money to buy food, one will resort to all means to satisfy that need. Below is a picture of the unsuspecting cat.

Along comes the down-and-out one that needs some help from his dearest fat cat...

"I am sorry Jonathan. I promise I will return the money to you once I win Toto. Meanwhile, we are still friends right?? I still think you are the best among all the cats. So fat lah~!"
I think Jonathan didn't have much say in this matter. He didn't even try to put up a fight. What a pussy... But well, the 2 of them are the bestest of friends afterall!

Congratulations to Aya
Her convocation was yesterday. Saw all the pictures and yes, I am glad for her that she has OFFICIALLY graduated!! I missed out on her lunch treat though coz I was still stuck in the office.
Mama cooked dinner and it was great!! Loved the crabs lah, YUMMY!! And the sashimi too. Adam ate and ate and ate and ate. He's turning into a cupckae soon. But I know any cook likes to see the food polished off. And KS was there to help eat also, although he didn't eat as much. Or maybe he was just trying to be polite. I don't know.
It was a nice way for Papa to meet Adam I think. Coz KS was there to shift some attention away. Not tt Adam needed helping. He was his usual crappy and charming self. =)

He made it worse
I was surviving very well w/o him around. I am still as busy as ever, struggling with tuition, doing fieldwork, organising SP Night stuff and then there is also my GP.
Then he called yesterday at the most unexpected of times. I was waiting in line for my Korean food at the foodcourt in Central when the phone rang.
He said the line was breaking up and he couldn't hear me well but his voice was really clear on my side. It was really a short call, really really short but hearing his voice made me miss him. I had managed to segment him out of my life and push that part into a closet, but his voice just "reminded" me (in a way) that I do miss him.
I guess it is always harder for the one that has been left behind. In many scenarios of seperation, it is always harder for the one that has been left behind. The other who is doing the exploring, discovering, and playing... Not much time left to brood over the absence of someone else isn't it?
But I am glad he went away at this time, coz I am so busy that the time I usually spend with him has been efficiently relegated to other pressing matters. Now, all I have to do is wait for him to come back. =)
