Today Vesak Day so must go temple bai bai =) haha not 100% must go la. Actually today huiyin and I planned to go Anqi's hse and discuss CMSK oral presentation. The plan says 3p.m meet at sch bus stop and call Anqi fetch us. Fortunately,
[lol dun need do any work on public holi mah.] gt heavy rain then huiyin called me and we decided to cancel due to the rain and also nicole not able to go.Suddenly, my father came home at 3p.m ++ then i have to help him to wash the fishy tanks and air-conditioners. Aft that he asked me and my sis wan go bai bai anot? We went to fetch my mother at Geylang Bahru and go to the Balestier there de Burmese Buddhist Temple dere bai bai. Emmm... long time no go dere le, but my parents will go dere every Vesak Day. Rmb last time long ago my mother's side de grandparents lived in Balestier coz they owned a carrot cake stall at the Balestier Market dere. Last time my mother, her parents and her 2nd brother also we small kids including my cousins all helped at the stall. The days were so fun as we helped chopping the big plates of the white kueh into smaller pieces, breaking alot of eggs a day, dry the washed plates and chopsticks and take turns to serve plates to diff tables. Sometimes very suay the table number is at the other end of the market and hav to walk zig zag way around the tables. [haha so ma fan...] Also there alot of cats and can eat alot of things everyday haha. Sad that happy moments dun last ever. Nw that the stall only my 2nd uncle tending nw, worker he hired helping him and weekend his kids help him also.
Anyway i prayed at the temple and gt some strings from the monks over there for my gd frens. Aft that as a family we go eat dinner at the Boon Tong Kee. Ages since i last ate the chicken rice over there. The dinner was nice and i ate till full =) long time no eat together for abt 1mth ++ le bah.
Thinking that today was a nice day aft all. Happy Vesak Day!!!
