Let's Blog

Dear Family and Friends,

As we get on with out busy lives, and as we welcome new additions to our family & friends, I've noticed that it getting harder for us to get together. And of course, every time we get together, our energy create too many funny and unforgettable memories. I figure it might be a good idea if there is a way to keep track of it. I'm giving this try as a new way to log our memories so we can refresh it at times.

So, please blog your thoughts away. Feel free to comments and provide your high lights of our parties. And, please keep this a clean blog, so other can read.

See you guys at the next events.

In House BBQ




April 14, 2007

After our careful, long, & organized planning, many of us agreed to BBQ on the outdoor park in Fremont. Little did we know, the weather wasn't cooperating. Si Fu William decided to host an in-house BBQ at the lovely home (Location kept secret for the public).

First, a big Thanks to all the helpers:

William, Nica and Zoe for hosting the BBQ, preparing the veggies
Erica for preparing the chicken wings, mushrooms and fish balls
Gary L. and Melo for getting the Korean Foods
Oh, and Ryu's rice ball

Talking about rice ball, I wonder if the Wasabe rice ball ever make it to GY?

We introduce a few new games. Here's my recollections of some highlights.

Pai Gow-it was somewhat complicated. The complications was in the game but the fact that many of us still need to count dots with our fingers and can't do math in their heads.

Bomb it-Both Gary L and I was killed by Teenager Issac, after switching cards and sacrificing his life to eliminate us. As Dennis puts it, this round "Blow Job" kings are Issac and Roger.

MJ- I have never seen such a silence game where the MJ aren't moving, the gals just sat there and talked.

And of course, the new discovered game of Chinese Scramble:
1) Pauline was the only one who was able to put a "real" quote with 4 Chinese characters
2) Nica's Chinese Vocabulary is definitely better then "Bun-Dang" William.
3) Issac explanation of "standard novel". It's found the below the "upper" novel and above the the "lower novel". It was like a Chow Sing Chee's explanation.
4) And the best summary....
