Qing Ming 2007

The 一年一度 annual family event, Qing Ming Festival, just took place yesterday.
Many folks woke up as early as 3 am in the morning to prepare setting off to their ancestors' tombs.

Yeah, I didn't I admit. But but but I still woke up at 5 am ok! Though I delayed everyone from setting off at around 6, we still had to wait for the relatives at the Malaysia side after we reached. So blehhhh not my bad.

While waiting, we had a nicee~ authentic breakfast at an authentic Malaysia coffeeshop there. You know you can never find such authentic taste in Singapore.

After all arrived, we drove another 15 minutes to the cemetery only to find out that the people who woke up at 3 am have already jammed up that place! Therefore, many impatient drivers cut queue by travelling on the opposite direction side of the road happily. Then, ☞ GOTCHA!!! YOU! CANNOT GO INTO THE CEMETARY! Says the traffic policemen, stopping them just before the entrance. So it became us who drove happily in when he signalled us to.



When we got there,

IT'S WORKING TIME!!!
