jus came back from my reunion dinner with my bro-in-law's family. went to one of the restaurants in imm to eat, ("Yun Nan Yuan Restaurant" for those who wanted to know) and it wasn't really enjoyable. the food was too average to even speak of, everything was so sub-standard, and the only highlights for the dinner was the fish (i seldom eat fish leh!!) and the wu3 shi1. yar, it was that bad. then, i wasn't feeling very comfortable sitting together with my bro-in-law's family oso. they kept asking weird questions and making weird comments, expecting me to reply somemore. urgh.
