this weekend is really one of the best in a long long time
i cant express all of what i am feeling now but i am going to try because it is one weekend that i will cherish for a long long time

saturday night
dinner with jingqi was, in a word, fantastic
although we exceeded our budgets by quite a bit, ok, alot, it was well worth it
the lovely food, excellent company and simply great conversation
we talked about everything under the sun, or rather, moon as we sat by the river drinking hooch and bacardi
yes, i know, how unglam
but wth
we had a really good time
yes, jingqi, we'll do it more often, but we need to stick to our budget
hah

sunday was a day spent with long lost family members
a day truly worth remembering and well spent
the familar laughter and chatter
something i didn't know i missed so dearly

as everyone sat down and talked, it was when i realised how different things were and how much older i really am
i used to be the kid receiving advice and listening in to the adults
but now, i am one of the adults sitting at the table and talking and giving advice to the younger ones
it felt really weird

but at the same time, it made me realised that it is time i learn how to arrange family functions and all
i am the eldest on both sides of my family
and it will be up to me to arrange anything in future when the adults are no longer around
i know it sounds morbid but it is true
and i wish when that time comes, it would be like what it was last time
a crowded and lively affair like before
