This morning, as with all sunday mornings, we had our bacon and eggs and headed off to st theresa's for mass. hao-e was hand-picked by the old-black-lady-at-entrance a.k.a. "the warden" to collect $$ from the congregation. (ps: last week hao-e was also picked by said old black lady to send up the bread and wine to the altar, but he was passed over the last second cos said old black lady picked too many ppl to help. => ) he was so excited! kept asking me when he should leave the pew. (me thinks you should pay more attention to the mass proceedings, then you wouldn't need to ask me?!?! anyways, i have never done such "duty" before, so how should i know when?) anyway, so he bumbled along in his polo-berms-berkies combination and did his part for this week's mass quite nicely. Nothing broken and no one hurt. So proud of you! father yim and your godpa would have been proud!
Then we made our way to robin hood for lunch and was pleasantly surprised to see chelsea vs arsenal on the many many tv screens, (robin hood is a sports bar or what we would call a "pub" in UK). And the ppl there were loud. most were supporting arsenal though. it was an exciting game with an outcome we didn't really like but was half expecting given the sending off in the first half. chelsea drew 1-1 with arsenal and gave away the EPL title to man u as a result. bah of all teams! (i know, i know, a couple of my frens from IC who are fervent/crazed/out-of-their-minds man u fans would probably kill me/sever all ties after reading this, but i still have to make my allegiance clear. our family i.e. hao-e, chewy chelsea lim and i are chelsea fans, no matter how unpopular that would render us in the eyes of society and the poor ppl who keep supporting the teams that keep on losing to chelsea. HAR! TAKE THAT!)
