Dong Zhi
Thursday, December 22, 2005
Have fun celebrating Dong Zhi people... Dong Zhi the day where the "Tong Yuen" prevails... I ain't gonna talk about the Dong Zhi festival... I just wanna reming U to take Tong Yuens hehe..
Ok so today is Dong Zhi and I had to help me mum make the Tong Yuens... Woke up at... 7 *gosh wat dragged me outta bed?* ok so woke up chilled out for awhile ebfore starting to roll them Tang Yuen at 9... by the way.. I think I rolled them to big....
ok after that did some other chores and then got ready for the karaoke session with Marshy Strawbs and Yi Lin Bong.. poor Evil Devil couldn't make it.... *kena food poisoning pula :(* so waited for Strawbs to fetch me... waited for ten minutes then called her to ask whether she was lost..... *well it only takes about 2-3 mins to reach my house from hers...* mana tahu she wasn't lost but was eating Tong Yuen and while waiting for her I actually refused a bowl of Tong Yuen caused I thought she was coming soon... cis...
oh well fetched me then headed for Bong's house.... reached curve at 11.20am too late for the 11-2 slot.... so in the end we went for the 1-4 one instead.... hanged around looking for wat to take for lunch... settled on Vivo's but that darn shop's kitchen wasn't open yet.... told us to come back in half an hour or an hour.... *by that time lunch crowd also gone alread lar... -.-"* Went to uncle Lim's for nasi lemak instead.... *took nasi lemak for 2 days in a row already*
Headed to red box and went in.. small cozy room for us... can fit 5 just nice I think.... regardless.. had a wonderful time.... got pretty frustrated looking for Strawbs's song though.... and this was the first time I actually sang a Britney Spears song in Red Box... wahhaahha hilarious.... *Hit me baby one more time......* the "Baby... Hit me one more time" was kinda short lived though.. cause the song was cut 25% of it.... regardless compensated with other hits like "sometimes" "from the bottom of my broken heart" ... "I'm not a girl not yet a woman" whahahaha how nice.... And for the first time ever I didn't have to see the darn JC's face for more than twice in a row.. whahahah.....
I actually noticed certain songs must be sung... "It's my life" by Bon Jovi is actually a pretty good karaoke song... U can just scream into the mic... another is Emil Chau's "Peng You"... those I feel are the must... Now for me.. I must sing a Wang Lee Hom song... must have B.A.D's "Wo De Chuo" and Enrique Iglesias "hero".. heheh
Oh darn forgot to sing Aerosmith's "I don't wanna miss a thing".. oh well... Lifehouse's "You and Me" was pretty nice too... Ok so at 3.55pm we were actually kinda waiting for the bill to come... then 4pm and tehy still haven't chased us out of the room yet.. then we felt kinda odd.. so we asked one of the workers... he said "since no one is using the room yet, U'll can continue singing." Bong:" Got extra charge or not ?" He said:" no extra charge, if got extra charge look for me." I tried to see his name but he was kinda rushing to go off.. so we continued to sing until 5.20pm... after Eric Carmen's "All By Myself" and Michael Wong's "Tong Hua". We wanted to avoid the jam.....
Foo.. so in the end sang for almost 4 and a half hours for only 8 bucks per person.. that's like 2 bucks an hour... wow.... how wonderful... I shall return for more fun someday...maybe with the evil devil eh? Didn't know they had such a rule where if no one else is waiting for the room we could continue singing.... lovely....
Ok came back and ate Tong Yuen.. those with fillings inside which was bought burst in the end... I think only the red bean ones burst but the sesame seeds were find.. it wasn't half bad... the once I made are still in the fridge.. maybe another bowl 2morrow.... Well ok time to sign out... oh BTW have a wonderful CHRISTMAS people... hohoho
