My mum found out at the temple that this year of the Rat is a "fan tai sui" for me. Basically "Fan Tai Sui" refers to an opposition to the Deity of the Year. So happened that my chinese zodiac sign, the Rooster, is one of the few chinese zodiac signs that will face significant changes this year, be it good or bad things. To myself a peace of mind, I went to pray at the temple. My mum accompanied me, gave them my chinese name, date and time of birth and address. I kneeled down and offered some joss sticks as a temple staff recite some sayings in front of the deity. After the reciting, he told me to stand up, tap on my head with a stack of incense papers. Then I proceeded to put joss sticks into the golden bowl, placed a red packet on the tray and then went to burn the incense papers. Some of you might think I am being superstitious. But things have not been going well for me lately so I decided to be safe. It gives me a peace of mind anyway...
Went to Orchard yesterday to collect my jeans and then met wj for coffee at raffles city. It was really relaxing sitting outside spinelli, watching people go by as I sip my coffee. After that, ed and Ay came to meet me and we went to downtown east. Mel's sis was celebrating her 21st birthday and has booked a chalet. Downtown East has changed a lot. Its been a long time since I last went there. Remember the last time I was there was during uni year 1. My classmates and I booked a chalet at Aranda Country Club. Mel invited us down even though we do not know her sis that well but she was pretty cool with it. As it was last minute, we gave a red packet instead, not knowing what she likes. Kind of wierd......There was myself, Ay, ed, kr and jos. sy came rather late. We were playing lame games like around the world, mrt, the handphone game which I didn't get it at all till they finally show me what the whole game meant. Really lame and funny! Not sure what it was, but my face started to itch after the drinking and eating of some prawns. I dismiss it as being allergic to the prawns as I am not. My pimple breakout is still there and did not go down. I really wish I don't need to see my doctor.....
Another start of a new week.....
