For the first time in a very very loong time, my day was bout 21 hrs long.. and it didnt help that i had only 3 hrs of slp the night before =P

In my quest to be a good wife & perhaps good daughter-in-law, i decided to go to the wet market with his mom! I've never gone to a wet market before cos my parents always did all the grocery shopping at NTUC. Yes yes.. shame on me... lol.. Yup.. it was high time i learnt the tricks to picking out good fish, vegs & maybe the art of haggling.. =)

So at an ungodly hr on a beautiful Sunday, we headed to the wet market.. It wasnt as packed as i expected cos apparently there are crazier pple out there who wake up EARLIER than this ungodly hr to go to the wet market! Crazy de.. haha.. After the veg & fish stalls, we went to the pork stall.. Yucks.. there 'displayed' whole pig legs, with all the mangled meat n bones at the end..! I mean.. not that i'm expecting something pretty but those legs were sick man.. i could pratically see the pigs getting chopped up =P The butcher was also gross.. He was chopping up the meat with such strength, ur fingers/wrist/legs will be gone if u stuck it there. Could see all the lil bits of meat & blood flying everywhere. Plus he was smoking too! ee.... all the ash floating into the meat.. yucks..

The trip was quite ok la.. didnt really learn much.. haha.. opps? Tho it was wet, dirty & semi-crowded, i wouldnt mind going again la. Quite fun =)

After that, we headed to his grandma's hse to celebrate dear's lil bro's bday.. Havent went over for a few weeks now so was happy to see all the relatives.. esp kipp & cheers! =D Dear's cousin at a performance at the Esplanade, so we ended the the celebrations at 5 and made our way there. I was taking so many pictures that day! Haha.. Cos i had a good hair day ma.. heh..


Me and xw before we left the house.... =) So glad i bought my camera....

Heh.. he had his fake camera so he wanted to take pictures too...! Had all sorts of funny demands.... must open mouth wide wide.. or our heads must be closer.... haha.. Then when i asked him to show me the 'photos' he took, he said, "dont have.. cos this camera fake de".. haha.. so cute!

The performance was really quite cool. Kids of different ages had solo performances of the piano or violin. At times, the violin pieces were accompanied with piano played by their teachers. Hiaz.. how i wish i could play the violin or piano. Was dripping with jealousy while sitting there listening. And I absolutely LOVE pianists' fingers... They are sooo......... sensual. Yum... lol.. imagine them dancing all over ME... wooooo.....

Went on to have dinner that this popular seafood place. Its was good.. chilli crab, pepper crab, a huge steamed fish, peking duck.. but it was waaayy too expensive for comfort. Each table costs about $250? aiyo... but not my treat la.. so...... haha..

Was so tired.. fell asleep almost immediately.. laughs.. Fell asleep faster than dear for the 1st time.. haha.. Still super tired now.. Must slp earlier today..... Yawn!!!
