ladies night out
these are some long over due pics
i
got milk?i really miss these times. i was just talking to mum abt them, and she says that as we grow older we have our own clique to hang with. No more cousins etc. we'll be living our own lives...but i told her "No, cousins will always be cousins"..... but it is real tiring to make something work when the other party(ies) don't make the effort too. sometimes i really wanna give up....how much longer can i be the one who calls or sms.....it's really tiring. i just hope that they'll realize i may not always be here for them.
***
so last night, we went out with uncle Frank and aunty Karen( Perth, Ahoy!)....we had dinner at a restaurant called marrakesh, a lil' nook along clarke quay. really nice and quiet place( till 11pm. then the party-goers start flocking the place)....there were countless numbers of cute guys(by the looks of it, most of the playboys) and mamma-mia hot girls(guys i bet you're drooling already.)sorrie i don't have any picture to show you...but i bet you can use your imagination/brain for once in your lifetime....so anyways, back to the story.
all of us( mum, dad, mandy, uncle Frank, aunty Karen and mama Pandian) were eating turkish, lebanese food with of course the slight taste of wine. so it so happens that uncle Frank and aunty Karen had just came back from Ireland/England from visiting relatives....and one of their"relatives" happened to be their son/step-son, Christopher. i don't know what is about "Christophers" in the world...but must they always have the "thirst" to be RIGHT??!btw, the meaning of christopher= christ-bearer, in other words. Faith. as i was saying, so they(F+K) met christopher in london where's he' studying some IT-related degree at THAMES etc.....and it's so funny, because he remembers the girl whom talked to on the phone a couple of years back. aka. MUA<---
Flashback: a couple of years backChris: Hi, I'm Chris. who am i speaking to?( with strong Aussie accent)Me: Hi chris, I'm Rick's daughter Audrey. how are you?
Chris: Oh, well, i'm fine thanks...so whatcha up to?Me: well i'm fine thanks, well pretty much talking to you and doing my homework:)Chris: so when are you coming down here??I'd like to bring you clubbingat this point of time, i was only 17, just below the age limit for clubbing all 'round the worldMe: oh, that's nice chris. but sorry, i'm underage. only 17Chris: LOL( emphasizm on LOL)...oh bother. too bad.Me: oh, ok. well nice talking to yea( NOT!)bye.
so imagine the impression i had of him.
it seems that aunty Karen had a sweet impression of him. he's more of a daft( Dork in American slang). she kept on emphasizing that he had a good heart although he looked "buffer" now from the last time she saw him( skinny)....so i guess that's a good thing then...hahahahha
okok, That's NOT the embarrassing part yet. my mum, said
"oh well, don't worry Karen...we've got one here too...." and she points to me.
that's when the WHOLE match-making Audrey-Chris started.....especially uncle Frank..." if you both of chemisty, then good. if not, then move on....it'd be good to have you as a daughter-in-law"....omgosh, imagine how i felt.....ah!!!!!!
but i love them both, Frank and Karen.
