Last Day of the Year of Snake. Was on off today. Send kids to sch and Kennie to work. Went marketing at West Coast Market. Buying stuff for our own Reunion Dinner. Thought the price would have gone down but it's still so ex.
Saw a break-in at a coffee shop

Nice Lor Mee at West Coast Hawker

Stealing some aircon at WCP Mac while waiting for Kennie to knock off. She has been working till 11+ for the last few days. Poor Baby.




Round 2 of Reunion Lunch wih Mum. She cooked porridge and fried bee hoon for us.



Bro gave us 2 can of Abalone. Stitch not included
Went home to prepare our Reunion Dinner.



We will try and stay awake as long as we can so that our parents will live a long and healthy life .  The Chinese refer to this as Shou Sui 守岁.   Shou Sui is when members of the family stay awake throughout the night after the reunion dinner to welcome the new year.  According to Chinese beliefs, children who Shou Sui will increase the longevity of their parents.
