Day 137

I was invited to a BBQ tonight by my fellow country-man

Kathy will be leaving back for Hong Kong next thursday
(the day of declaration for my release from prison
+ 23yr anniversary of Global Live hailing)

Start Drooling all you people


The weather in London sure is eccentric.
While we were out in Berms and short sleeve tees last week.
The temperature has dropped to a single digit these 3 days
and we have since wrapped ourselves into a dumpling once again




Man.. these 2 are the smartest dogs I have ever seen
And they only understand Cantonese


The BBQ consist of 2 core groups

The Hongkongers



The Taiwanese


Thanks to Dad and Mum, I could transform
myself between the 2...
Not forgetting Summer, my same species


This was the best for the night

Authentic Cantonese dessert

The Master of the Magic hands


Uncle and Aunty (Kathy's in laws)

I had a good time chatting with the different groups

With Uncle, we talked about My migration story to Singapore
as well as his migration story to the UK.
Perfect revision for my next exam

And with the Taiwanese folks, we talked about
our different experiences in National Service (huh again?)
as well as how you could turn your world upside down
when you speak 'English' while shopping in the Taiwanese
boutiques, or what more when you're clubbing



And I was introduced to Natsuko Kobiyama
A Japanese girl studying at Royal Holloway, political studies major

She'll be doing a 1-year student exchange programme to
National University of Singapore, Faculty of Arts and Social Science
the following semester from August - May 09

Guess I'll have to play host then
and folks in Singapore, I'll need your help as well
