Last Friday, I was feeling very happy about my coming weekend, cos going shopping on Saturday, but a phone call from my dad dampened it.

“Von ah, (that’s how my parents call me lah) later you finish work at what time? And what time can you reach home?” he asked.

I replied, “6 o’clock lor, but not sure lah, cos sometimes last minute things have to finish first then can go back what. Why?”

He said, “Later after work, you go temple ah, today we are having a feast for the members’ ancestors and you come down and pray for grandpa and grandma.”

I can only say, “OK….” Haiz… my Friday mood gone… why Why Why WHY!?!?! I wanted to sms ah dor to go KTV but since I agreed, then I called up my mom and make arrangements to meet her lor… I arranged to meet her at Redhill MRT then she will pick me from there in a Taxi.

I thought it would only be my mom and I there, but instead I see My First, Second, Third, Fourth, Youngest Aunties and my two uncles all there. I was like the only child representative till my 33yr old cousin came. Haha, sounds old har, but still able to get along lah… the ceremony starts at 8pm till it was like 11 then we took a hitch back with my 4th aunt’s car.

It was so boring, sit there do nothing, only like when necessary ask us go pray with the incense etc otherwise I would be sitting at the roadside kerb (cos more airy outside, no crying due to the smoke also) with my mom. She was chatting with my youngest aunt then suddenly talk about youngsters of our age, saying our thinking and values are different now, might stay single for the rest of the life, my sister is one of them lah, my aunt ask what about me.

My mom replied, “she haven even get attached, don’t even have to think of getting married yet.”

My aunt was so surprised and asked, “What about the guy at your 21st birthday celebration? No more ah?”

Haha, who is she referring to??? I do not know, cos there was like so many guys at my party that day and I’m not attached to any at that time too. And my behaviour was like normal, did not show any special attention to any of them also… hmmm, where did she get that idea…

My cousin interrupts and said, “aiya, that one test water only… must find good one!”

Haha, this only shows how much they know about me… Well, it’s not that I don’t have people liking me lah, but I don’t like them leh, then can’t force me right. I would want someone to love and care for me, vice versa but the time is not here yet bah, let nature take its course lor, if it’s meant to be mine it would run away. But if you got someone nice, don’t look like a frog, don’t eat like a pig (that’s what ah dor says last time) can intro me lah, haha, I’m not desperate but no harm making new friends.

Maybe should list down criteria hor, hmmm, someone above 1.7m tall, lean, tanned, caring heart (love his family, but not to the extend of mama’s boy k), humorous, not bad looking (well, this differ from person to person). Wow, sounds too prefect hor, well if there is someone like that, either they are Gay; Attached or Married. Good guys are all taken up. Maybe someone who has 80% of the above mentioned, like that easier to find bah.. haha...

Oh ya, when we were on my way to my aunt’s car, the temple every Friday have this deities (Tua Ah Pek and Dee Ah Pek) The Black and White Dressing Constables from Hades who will be “invited up” to answer, solve devotees’ problems and it will start from 11pm. We were like preparing to go, then suddenly everyone at the temple grounds turned silent that you could even hear the pin dropped. It was because the both deities run out from the temple to the carpark there, wah, so eerie and scareD me leh.. still got chains around their legs and when they walk, the chains rattled. Lucky we were on the way home le, or else think I would have some scary thoughts later in the night, hehe….
