Reunion dinner

I realized a lot of things today:

1. My brother is actually very smart. He is able to say all colours that were asked of him
2. My brother has good conversational skills. We spent the whole journey talking about nothing at all when travelling to my grandparents' house.
3. I feel kind of weird in my family. I sensed they feel the same too
4. My family is a singing family. Basically almost everyone has taken part in singing competition or performed on stage before. Yes, that includes me.
5. My brother is quite an entertainer. He makes everyone laughs with his Caucasian slang.

Dinner was superb. Auntie cooked beehoon, rice, curry chicken, traditional hainanese pig's trotter, fried calamari, fried fish cakes, spicy chicken (which tastes like pizza hut. Go buy CP brand spicy dumplets), and Yusheng. I love Yusheng man. Especially with salmon. This year they decided to go with abalone. Hopefully my 小姨 prepares the salmon Yusheng. ^^

Now my main point of Yusheng is to enjoy the niceness of it; not the prosperity or whatsoever. it does dawn on me that prosperity doesn't matter anymore. I'm just planning what kind of simple life I would like to have that revolves around God.

But you are to be perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect. (Matthew 5:48 NLT) "perfect means wanting nothing."
