All in a Day...

These days, many many things happen on the SAME day... so here's an attempt to try to recall some of these more interesting stories hee...

Once, while driving on the road, a very fierce looking car came up from behind and it looked very impressive. It took me a while to find out that its called Murano by Nissan. Since then, this car has never failed to look intimidating on the road. UNTIL recently, during a dinner conversation, a friend called it the Garfield car! ha ha ha ha... here's why....


The CaT


the CAR

very similar hor? hee hee....

then the two hungry folks went to search for FOOD! guess what we found?

yes the Kong Bak Bao!

We've seen it a few times, walked past it and always trying to resist the urge to buy it but it cost almost S$2! So ridiculous! But seems like the Great Singapore Sale is infectious, even the Kong Bak Bao has gone cheaper! ha ha ha....
here's the happy boy with his partial lunch....


Why did I say partial? because he also had BK, Macs, KFC, Chicken Rice... all in his thoughts hee....

then we spent a good part of the day cleaning the house, discussing videography, played with Baby A, talked about the recent PC Show and its goodies and finally Ad cooked DINNER!

Woah, his mussels were very well cooked! My personal favourite was to drink up the sauce!

He also perfected the Cesars' salad dressing!! yummy!

Cranberry juice was super delicious....

hmm... after eating desserts which was cooked by ME! heh... pulau hitam, which of course was delicious as well!

we chatted abit more before proceeding to something which we all enjoyed very much hee... yes MJ!!

Through the night, many high INTERGRITY games were played and this one was puzzling....

hee... yeah, must be very tired liao, if you dunno about MJ, we're to make 3 tiles of consecutive numbers together. so if you count each tile carefully, it reads 2, 3 and 5 from right to left. ha ha ha.....

we all laughed about it and continued the game.

THEN! this happened in another game!

woah.. this joker got 3 animals, 1 flower and one set of Big cards, super LIMIT liao! before he Pong the big cards, we were all warned NOT to throw any big cards for him. If anyone did that and he took the card, in the event that he self-draw to win the game.... the thrower will have to PAY for all. hee... after this BIG card was thrown, we all guarded our cards like crazy and that poor boy has no chance of gaming even though he had the biggest chances!

We all had a great time acknowledging that it was a good game trying to guard each other hee....

then in the last game... silly me had the chance to game with 2 doubles. But I thought that to make things more "exciting" I should prolong the game to try to increase my doubles hee... so I did not game when I initially had the chance to. instead, by allowing the game to go on, all other player's doubles went UP except MINE! aiyo.... I tell you ah, as the game went on, I can feel my heart cracking inside....

then the worse happened! I threw the winning card for a 5 doubles game!!! WAH PIANG EH! from winner to super loser! *SIGH*

so alot does happen in ONE day... hee....

ha ha ha.... I've considered if I shd have a sub-blog on MJ hee.... maybe we should set up a MJ league hee....

The rules for Taiwan MJ, HK MJ and Singapore MJ is different, so the basic rules should be established between all players before the start of the game to prevent any unpleasent misunderstanding especially when one player thinks his game can win him some super big $$ while the other players do not think so.

basically, to game in MJ, minimum we need one "tai", to get this one "tai" can be:
1. pick animals (chicken, centipede, cat or mouse only four in the game and each animal gets you one "tai")
2. pick relevant flowers (eg. on this picture, got flowers with numbers 1-4, depending on the seat from the person who throws the dice, being no.1, if you are second from the dice-thrower, you are no.2, if you collect a no.2 flower, it will give you one "tai". taking other's flowers does not give you or minus any "tai")
3. have three of the "big" cards namely the red middle, the white tv or the green Fai Cai. Having 3 of the same big card will get you one "tai"

the other ways of gaining "tai" comes of how you play the game and how fast you win.... our normal limit we set to the no. of "tai" in any game is 5. As the payment is exponential, if you game

1 "tai" = 10cents, thrower pays double at 20cents
2 "tai" = 20cents, 40cents
3 "tai" = 40, 80
4 "tai" = 80, 1.60
5 "tai" = 1.60, 3.20

so starting at the low low price of 10cents can already mean that one can win or lose a few dollars PER game. I cannot imagine those who start at S$1...

nonetheless, for us, its the company that we truly enjoy during the game and not in the winning or losing..... but wearing a lucky underwear has proven track record of good winnings hee....
