Annual Dinner of Pei Yuan old students

This is the 4th year I attended this dinner, still remember the moment we attended the dinner 4 years ago. Lai Fung, Wai Kheng and me, 3 of us was given the wrong letter which stated the venue of the dinner. Gosh! Somebody faxed us the old copy - previous year letter where the dinner was took place at Sungei Way Primary School. When we reach the place, it was not as what it suppose to be... The hall was full with crowd, but no one is familiar to us at all. How come? Kheng called the person in charged and found that we went to the wrong place, without delay we left that place without looking back. So embarassing...

When we reached the approprite venue, the dinner was served, if not mistaken the 3rd dish was on the table, the embarrass condition was more and less the same as we were at the wrong venue. More than 90% of them were older (10 years older) than us and no one seemed familiar to us. We found that we are the youngest group amongst the crowd. 

Luckily, we were served like VIP, they all so appreciate our present. I'm sure these 3 young pretty faces make their dinner more lively. :P 

Surprisingly, I met my cousin sister and brother there, and my elder sister's friend too. This is another joke, we used to call my sister's friend - 'fei choo' because he was fat when he was young. Out of a sudden I could not recall what his real name was, so I called him Mr. Choo. He seemed like not feeling nice, but I still do not know it until I told my sister about this. Instead, he is not Mr. Choo. Both my sister and I burst into laughter, couldn't held it till my stomach pain. 

It is so nice that we can apply 奖励金for our kids if they score good result in the government exams. I have 3 nephews got this reward. All of them were doing very well in the exam, really proud of them.
This year, not many of our gang were turned up, this photo is not complete, beside this there were few more, who are not in the photo are Yin Yoong, Wai Kheng, Leong Shiun Yun and Tang Sow Fun.
The lady in white (she was not Pei Yuan's student but her husband was) and the man in black are my cousins. Who I met 4 years ago. The old man is my father, oh yes, he was Pei Yuan's student too. He said there were no classroom during his schooling time. There was an announcement on that nite, saying that 3 years later we are going to celebrate 100 years old for Pei Yuan school. The organisation urge everybody to contribute their photos or anything related to make this a very memorable one. I think may be father can write something about this.
The pretty girl is Miss Malaysia, her mother was Pei Yuan students too. This prooved that Kampar has many pretty girls. Anybody dare to say the ladies in the pictures are not pretty?

Chikungunya Fever... Scary!

大姐患上了可怕的基孔肯雅症,上星期天入院,至今还未能出院,真令人担忧。
更可怕的是大姐夫也在昨晚因此病症入院。
大姐天生心脏有孔,医生也蛮担心病菌会感染他的心脏。
Chikungunya Fever 基孔肯雅症 - 一个多漂亮的名字,却是一种令你无法招架的骨痛病,类似骨痛热症,还好它不至于骨痛热症般有生命的危险。
今天到医院去探访姐姐,进入第四天,情况看来颇乐观,发冷发热的症状减轻了。热情的他还与同房的几位病友做了朋友,大家有说有笑。
大姐夫更不用说了,嚷着要出院,说他没事了,晚上还要去摆档。
我则劝他最好不要到外头去害人,谁晓得你体内的病菌清了没?一个不小心让PJ的蚊子叮中你,又去叮别人,把你身上的病毒传给别人,那可不成了害人精吗?
牛脾气的他,当然坚持自己的立场,出院摆档去!
不懂应该欣赏他的坚持己见,还是可怜他的命苦,生病还顾着干活!
不懂能帮上什么忙,但愿他们夫妻俩吉人天相,早日康复!
