saturday night!
just need to blog this very special outing with daddee and mummiee.
just me alone with them both. felt really fun and is like a reminiscene of last time when we stayed at Ghim Moh estate ancient years ago. often we will go down stairs and walk to the ultra nearby markey and have dinner or walk and shop around for stuff.

and see the many activities that is so alive there.
- uncles playing chess and drinking beer.
- aunties sitting and chatting.
- old aunties and uncles walking on the pavement with those stones poking out.
- satay and otah smoke.
- shops opened and lights beaming.
- market washing with the food centre directly beside it bursting with ppl.
- middle of the place is a playground for lots of kids.
- around the playground is a "track" for those mini-cars that kids drive. pay to play.

recently when i've gone over to jinyan's house, found the place to have slowly died down. as in younger generations are moving out to more better place nearer to central. old ppl dying off..
memories gone.
but no. its still inside me. i really wish that time can return to the time when i was still holding to mummiee's hands and following her to the playground. with daddee walking around aimlessly after dinner at blk10 or 11. then joining the fun with the kids. no need to worry about anything in this world. not even games or anyone or homework or projects or money.

anyway, daddee brought us to sorta visit my uncle whom i've said before, is in a mental state of confusion. i tink could be becos of some incident.
well, it seems that things arent going well for him ever since he ran out of the mental hospital months ago and finally found. now back in the old age home where he does outrageous things. wont say wat but .. he wont sit still. so.. mummiee asked me to pray for him too. as in none of the uncles and aunties is willing to take care of him and mummiee is the only one doing all the work. using the money that Grandpa left for us to feed him. but mummiee told me that the money is soon being used up after 10years ago. the most it can stand for another 1-2years if nothing happens to him.

this is so sad. cos our family isnt that rich to begin with. we have just enough for ourself and uncle is taking about $2000 per month for the take he need. going to doctor with escort is around 80dollars per trip! he couldnt go alone since he have illness mentally. so... mummiee was telling me if the money could last till he can sleep peacefully then its good. but if he have a long life.. we will have no means of taking care of him anymore. no idea wat to do anymore.
so prolly we are praying God will take him back to where he belong. since i suppose he is not enjoying being caged up in an old folks home and love freedom. but he makes disturbance in those areas that he roam that police is finding him. wanted man.

then we are off to the main purpose of this trip! - the wine exhibition at Expo which is on the other side of the singapore map. if u ask anyone who noes me, i nvr like to travel anything near to central already liao lol. but that time, i just wan to spend some time with parents. so i tagged along.
to my surprise, daddee didnt noe that the exhibition costs. need 15bucks each person and a total of 45 to enter.
so daddee diddnt wan to spend money as the exhibition is ending 1.5hours later.. so we walked back to the car and i suggested going to changi village. since its been more than 10 years we visited there together. together.


asked gilbert wat is nice there and he said Nasi Lemak.
woah the queue sure is long. waited 15minutes.
ordered some other food too.

this is the one with the longest queue. we ate this.
the chicken wing lose to some others i ate before. not nasi lemak but im good at finding good chicken wings!
the sambal lost to boonlay shopping centre banana leaf sambal. or the one at market.
the cucumber is average.
the egg is average. taste like egg to me lol.
the rice is nice. prolly the best nasi lemak rice i've eaten. soft and tasty. looks like chicken rice though..


this one is the one beside us.


food. high in fat. high in cholesterol. high in watever and everything.
but high in enjoyment when u ate it once in a blue moon!!!

old school watch/clock shop. really old.


enjoyed changi village becos of the high amt of activity there that reminded me of olden days. the shops there are pretty mixed. air-con to retro shops.
bought li zi as well. gao luk in hokkien. not lychee mind u.
its also been almost 10 years i didnt touch that thing. its sweet and nice. a packet for 5 bucks. pretty nice to enjoy it inside the dark car when daddee is driving and mummiee is cracking the shell and making for herself and daddee to eat while im clumsily eating it. this kind of trend might be disappearing soon. who will ever wan to be a gao luk seller u tell me.

Uni grad come out sell gao luk?!?
had lots of fun time in today's outing. in the car eating gao luk and laughing.
