CNY Day 3
Finally had a chance to sleep in!!! Feeling so tired after lacking so many nights of sleep, and finally had a little bit of chance to restore that bit of energy. Went to visit James' Grandma who is staying at a hospice. It is really upsetting to see all the old people there, staring at the blank wall or out of the windows, with nothing to do everyday. But I believe all their families have a sad story to share, if not why would anyone want to let their own parent or grandparent stay in a hospice? Every time I leave the hospice, I will always feel so depressed and sometimes I would even tear. This year it was worse, I was tremendously upset coz the visit had made me miss my late Grandmother a lot more than ever.
Anyway James and I left the hospice with a heavy heart, and we went to Shanel's place for a short visit. Gambling was on the cards again, wad else to do during the CNY? Originally I won, not much la... But after Number 2 reached with her FUTURE husband, and her FUTURE husband decided to be the banker, we all lost.
Why did we lose? Coz he kena one 'ban ban' (double ace), and he basically screamed with joy and nearly bounced to the door. So that round he won 3 times our bet which was quite a sizeable amount.
Prior to that, there was a round that James kena 'ban luck', and my FUTURE brother-in-law got an Ace and a 5, so he can decide to nullify that round, and James was not paid the money for his 'ban luck'. And after that, he kept on harping on it, machaim gloating on James' 'misfortune', or that James no luck to win 'ban luck'. And we are expecting him to laugh at my Darling on this '15 and ban luck' thing for another 3 months or even longer...
And ya, ALL of us lost, lest for HIM!!!
