Satur-Saturday @ 5:07 PM
It was a weekend to remember. Met up with my maternal relatives last weekend. My second uncle booked a bungalow at The Safra Club and invited all of us there. My family and I went there on Saturday afternoon and my sis and I stayed overnight. Had to sleep on a hard bed, but I'm complaining. I enjoyed the night. We shared a room with two of my favourite cousins, Joyce and Dorothy. Dorothy pestered me for music, Joyce and I fought over a bed. Haha, not a fight exactly, just that we can't decide which bed we want, or sides, to be exact.The main show of the weekend was the BBQ on Saturday. My mum prepared chicken wings and curry chicken. The others prepared and bought other things too. It was a night of meat and food. No one thought to bring corn or sweet potato or the likes. Plus, it would have been better if there had been marshmallows too. According to my sis, barbequed marshmallows are nice... but it was rejected by my mum. Sob sob... I'm sure it would be a hit. Many of us have sweet tooth...We went bowling during the afternoon and night as well. It was my first time. Never tried it before, and probably never would if my smallest uncle and aunt had not insisted. It was fun!!! Yippie! Wippie! I may not have the skills yet, but I will make sure I do. Over this holidays, or even later. One of these days, I'm gonna be a bowling expert! You may wonder why I am so insistent on learning bowling, and let me tell us, that is because my siblings have already mastered the skills! My brother had several strikes that day. SO ENVIOUS... My sis was good too, she may not have strike on the first try, but she does by the second! I feel so bad... my score was lousy too, may be even worst if my siblings had not helped me out. Thanks to them, I did not lose too badly. I hate being the last, I hate it even more if the score range is miles apart. So, I'm gonna hone my bowling skills. Luckily I'm not the only bad bowler there...Went to the beach as well. It's been a long time since I went to the beach. Went for a stroll by the beach, it was so refreshing. The cool weather helps. Before we checked out yesterday morning, we went to the beach again. I went there mainly to enjoy the cool sea breeze in the morning light. My cousins were collecting shells and crabs. Over the last 3 days, they suddenly developed a fascinations for shells and crabs... Speaking of them, Cheryl and Jamie were so aloof, or rather I am not close to them. Kinda break the ice when we went shell-crab hunting yesterday morn. Shawn is a lot more sociable.p/s: got a job offer to tutor english to a group of expatriates. karen gave me some advice, but i'm still hesistant. after all, it's not an easy job. have to prepare the notes myself. but that's not the worst part. the worst part is teaching. hmm... some pictures... the beautiful sky...
