yesterday's annual cny gathering (despite numerous "no replies" and "non-appearances"!) was quite a success..though i must say there was nothing successful about me losing almost 30 bukceroos at blackjack!! i know "certain" people will beg to differ though! =P
but what's most satisfying is the re-appearance of our dear friend and my partner in crime in so many #tkgs outings before, sam the man..the fat man that is! =P it's been so long since we last met up but yet the chemistry is still there..i guess great partnerships are hard to put down eh sam? haha.. (jingxian..you left too early my girl!) to think that at 2pm i gave up on him even making an appearance! heh..but well..he did collect an "appearance fee" of around 30 bucks in the end!
anyway, like i said, this will be the last time i tried to organise a large gathering..but as it turned out it wasn't much of a "large" one in the end! despite all the "rejection", all the fuss my mum and i had to go through (more of her credit really!! so THANKS MUM!) and not to mention all the money i have lost two years in a row (especially to a particular person who doesn't know how to play blackjack!!)..this cny gathering was more special in the sense that in spite of our seemingly growing distances throughout the year, there is just this one day which we can all still come together and remember the good old days..and i say cheers to that..
lastly, i would like to say a big thank you to everyone who made an appearance..it couldn't have been the same without you guys!
and as for next year..well.. ...urm..maybe.. just maybe..
