New Year 2009, My 1st Movie in US and New Family Member

It was the last day before 2009 arrived. I dolled up abit (not too much but at least bothered to out on make up) while waiting for monkey to come back from his bowling session and fetch me go gai gai.....

We went Scottsdale for a quick shopping (it was already 4pm and it closes at 6pm on New Year eve)... i had my breakfast cum lunch there while waiting for the chiangs... haa... odd timing i noe...

Didn't buy alot... monkey bought another holister tee while i bought the coach fabric cleaner as requested from weini... went all the way but i didn't buy anything for myself.. sianz 1/2...

Then go dinner (HUH, i tot i just had breakfast cum lunch) at Davun with the guys. Didn't ate much cuz i m still quite full.. monkey had his fav "mee-pok" lookalike...

Then.. we proceed to a place called Pussy Cat Lounge for counting down... why? dunno leh.. the chiangs recommend one and we nv went clubbing in US before... so we were quite excited oso..

When reached.... I m SHOCKED! Its so cold out there.... below 10 degree celsius i think.. and the ladies were all dressed like... erm.... short tube dress or lesser! and they were so stunning in the full of sequins outfit!!!! they are just normal ang mohs who is going clubbing like us.. but they dressed like mamasams and 7th mth ge tai... wow.. culture shock... hahahaa.. maybe i too mountain turtle liao... but i dunno how can they stand the cold with such little coverage.. and queued outside so long before getting in... at first i tot i was already in proper outfit to go clubbing.. when see them... i think i look super auntie... haiz...must buck up nx time! haha

in the lounge... monkey was standing like a bouncer behind me.. then the 2 chiangs were dancing infront of me... so i m sandwiched... erm..... but they were all trying to protect me la... cuz i heard the ang mohs will come hands up and down if u are left alone.... so tat makes me beri safe from the protection of 3 "bodyguards"... haha.. thanks!

btw, i only drank 1 bottle of beer (and it was "robbed" from kok mun cuz he gave me coke at first!).. why? cuz the guys need to drive and drink driving is a NONONONO! and they said woman better dun drink else later erm... well.... ok lor.. not my territory so its better to be more careful...

New experience... haha.. counting down to 2009 lor!!!!!! bye bye 2008!!! lets hope that year 09 will be better, n terms of economy and weather !!!!!

On the second day of new year... monkey is still on off.... so we went movie with ms jm and her hubby.. we watched..... Marley and Me

Shy to say.. but its my first time watching movie at threatre in US... cuz i do tat mostly at home.. haha... but its a nice experience... their threatre is BIG and seats are oso wide!!!!! monkey likes it so his long knees have space.... and its Free Seating!!!! meaning... u get to choose ur prefered seat if its not taken....hengz we were early......but the threatre so big and their seatings are good so tat no matter where u sit, its still good...

Ordered some food.. their popcorns kinda cute... u get to season it yourselves as there are many diff flavours of season powders available at the side.... NICE! nx time i wanna buy their tee so i get free popcorns everytime i come and buy their cup so i get free refills every time!!!! Good buy rite?!?!!

It was a nice movie... jsut that the ending part... haiz... reminds me of my pet cat lulu in her final days.. dropped first tears of the year...

After movie, we went Petco and check it out... monkey was eyeing on his fav fish... alamak... i dunno alot abt fishes but he can't take his eyes off the betas (aka fighting fish).. so i told him i will buy him one...

This is our new family member.... i named him/her "Money"... haa

Remembered the "fish tank vase" i received as vDay surprise in 2007? haha.. i actually shipped it here.... time to let it be useful again.. but since it wasn't utilised earlier.. so it was still in wraps...

Monkey was beri exciting to build a new home for his fish and started to clean up the tank... he brought it to toilet and scrub it... scrub the tank of cuz.. not the fish!

See, every now and then, he will glance at "money" awhile. be it drinking water or watching tv, he will stared at it stupidly for few seconds and check how is it doing... and check again every morning when he wakes up and before he zzz.. wabiang... he dun wan his big and little wife after he found his new love liao... Pengz!

At first, we were quite worried abt how to bring this fish back to Singapore... give it to some1 or throw it away or fly it back? or give the fish our singapore address and ask it swim across the oceans and find us while we wait at bedok jetty? hahahaa... but all these are craps... monkey said he will buy another fighter fish nx wk... TO LET THEM FIGHT! so lets hope the fishes survive before we decide to make plans for them... pengz...
