the day was weell...........chinesenewyear-ish.
lots of housevisiting,
granddad's hse in tanjongpagar.
ohhyes he is the proud owner of several
professional cameras,all old models though.
all the pictures taken of
his family(my mom's family) were taken
&developed by him.he has got quite a great eye,howevr
he contained all of em in this big plastic bag,he's throwing
them out.all of them.
some..problems.

the hurt my mother felt was reflected in her
eyes.i was looking thru the bag,
trying to retrieve whtevr tht has my mom &her mom in it,
yahh wanted to lug the whole bag home but mom
insisted tht we shd just let him throw it away.
'i don't want them.'
'but why dont we just bring it home,then we can sort them out &keep some.'
'BUT I DON'T WANT THEM.'
RAHHR.it was quite apparent,how she refused to
show tht she cared since my granddad didnt care enough
to keep them photographs.
ayyes.you could hack at the tension in the flat
with a pair of chopsticks.

it was hectic in my uncle's place at jurong,
one relative hollers,&everyone starts hollering to
be heard,theyre a hilarious lot.especially the aunties
&female cousins
we gambled
&drank a LITTLE twas quite enjoyable,really
angbaos WHEEE.i think imma break my routine
of depositing the money into my acct this year!
spendspendspendd.

i hate not taking pictures.
but i cant,not when im hsevisiting all
the time &strangely the thought of bringing
my camera along puts me off.
