Chinese New Year
Had Chinese New Year Reunion dinner at home as usual. It’s probably one of the meals that I always look forward to…
We also had Chinese New Year Dinner with Mom’s family …
Family Bonds
It seems like a better weekend this week.. my mother was hospitalised in NUH last week due to some dumb diagnosis by the noobie doctors there, scaring everybody in the family and making my mother even more sick than usual.. (imagine being held on a drip, having to fast for almost 3 days, and taking nonsensical medicine that makes people drowsy!) So I consider it a lousy weekend, except the fact that I pretty much enjoyed the BBQ with the guys for christmas..
Nevertheless, my sister would soon be flying back to Shanghai with my brother-in-law after the turn of the year, ending her vacation.. although she’ll be back somewhere next month for an in-laws wedding, she won’t be back during the Lunar New Year. That also leads to my parents plotting to hide from meeting relatives and giving Ang Pows and spend it with sister. So where does that leave me ?
Anyway, my sister & Bro-in-law made the offer of treating dinner to us , in Shanghai style, so we made a trip down to a Yan Ching Si Fang Cai, which I assume is translated to Yan Ching Dishes, or if I translate it chinaman style, would be Yan Ching Private Room Vegetables.

pig livings bowel ? Duh…
Dinner @ Yan Ching Dishes, Bukit Timah, 30 DEC 2006 1945 hrs
Nice Tidbits. Love the pickles with Tofu and Tofu skin. The Seaweed peanuts were great too !
This dish was a fave ! Tofu with century egg and Egg Yolk ! Yummy !
Steam White Chicken steamed in Wine.. The gravy is olala !
This matches with…
.. This! Pork Knucles ! Nice.. But too much is no good !
This is fish. I don’t really like it..
Eel. My mother and sister had to con my father to let him think it was fish.. I accidentally let the cat out of the bag ! Oops !
Nice Prawns on Dou Miao !
Duck Soup. Nice. But I think got a bit of MSG.. So I stopped at two small bowls.
Didn’t take a photo of Father, cause he spend a lot of time parking his car, and never added Jackson’s Sister, cause I think it’ll be a little rude without her permission.. so…
Mom looking much healthier now.
Sister and Jackson<— Thanks for the treat 
Lydia Posing for the Camera
Finally, don’t need to be cameraman.
Which also leads me to take a photo of this phone which I am selling… Nokia 8800, any buyers ? Selling for upgrade (I’m not gonna tell u what..) Interested please mail to chironlum@hotmail.com
Nokia 8800 for sale, anybody want ?
Nokia 8800, for sale anybody want ? Think its used like less than 2 months ?
Anyway, managed to catch the Man Utd Vs Reading match, and was pleased to find them winning at 3-2, with Chelsea having a draw with Fulham..
All thanks to this two fella, Cristiano Ronaldo (2) & Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (1)
This photo damn gay right.
Cristiano Ronaldo, Scorching Form
Cristiano Ronaldo has been playing with great form, not scoring the most fantastic of goals, but just banging them from anywhere.. and he’s not even a striker… compared to the grizzly bear, Wayne Rooney…who seems to “shoot bird” recently.
What’s the similarity between Rooney & a bull ? They both see red.
Now that the diff in the premier league is 6 points, lets hope that United can carry on this form till May !
Some New Year Resolution’s for 2007…
1. I will learn how to sleep early.
2. I will cut down on Tao Kae Noi Seaweed. (They cost more than cigarettes!)
3. I will get a downgrade to miss IPPT
4. I will do better in my photography
5. I will not model a Marlboro Reds box for my next 3D Max Project
6. I will not lose my mobile phone.
7. I will consistently buy toto every monday and thursday at quickpick $2 ONLY
I guess this is my last post for the year.. Wishing all a great 2007 !
No commentsChristmas Shopping at Vivocity
Was a little busy during the last 2 weeks, pretty busy with weddings, work and some administrative issues. Anyway, managed to fulfil my promise to Lydia to dropby Vivo City(we swakoo never go before) and honestly, it was really tiring just walking around it.. nevertheless, got a feel of how christmas is at vivocity…
Many photographers, like the architecture of Vivocity, I was a bit too nua to leave the house during noon, so by the time we were there… was really close to evening… Had a nice dinner at superdog, and also got some presents for friends for christmas.. jialat.. really dunno what to buy for lydia…
Vivocity, Enormous but still packed with people. I prefer to be there on a weekday.

How can end the day without my handsome picture ?!Griller Restaurant, Tiong Bahru Plaza, 15th Dec
Had dinner after work with Lydia at Griller, had a pretty long wait there.. but food was pretty ok.. just that they took an hour for my Codfish.. apparently.. the fishermen were having a bad day at sea, so by the time it came.. Lydia’s seafood rice was pretty cold.. but ok lar.. at least they gave complimentary soup of the day.. which were.. not too bad I guess…
My exquisite codfish.. dun play play.. hard to catch hor !Legend Fort Canning Park, Hazel’s Wedding, 10 Dec 06
Went down to Hazel’s wedding, a friend since secondary school, and found out that she actually only invited 3 secondary school friends… dunno whether that is good or bad.. But nevertheless.. was honoured by the invite.. and coincidentally was on the same table as her cousin which she introduced many years back.. Food was not bad, but the performances were interesting ! my table was just behind the VIP table.. plonked in the centre.. Don’t play play ! And seriously speaking.. was an inspiring marriange.. so really wish you all the best Hazel ! After which myself, Kaiqin and Yanpei… took almost 2 hours to get a cab… wah lau.. never ever wait for a taxi at Park Mall !! Will pose the dinner photos if have the chance.. but this is Kaiqin and Yanpei… also known as Celeste and Jillia…(aw.. whatever..)
Chiron, Jillia, CelesteWhich also leads me to another wedding…Pan Pacific Hotel, Edmund’s Wedding, 8th Oct 06′
Went to my ex-Nan Hua Colleague’s wedding, was really nice to see most of the ex colleagues including my upperstudy.. was a pretty classy affair… Food was pretty good.. and guess.. it would be the last few occasions I would ever see them… and I shall not comment what happened later that night..So now guys.. please.. now that you know I’ve been giving angpao’s often.. and have to buy ridiculous christmas prezzies.. please don’t tempt me to go out.. and spend $$.
