Family gathering over the weekend at Jasmine's place. The last time the five of us; my father, mother, sister, brother and I, were together was during the Chinese New Year. It is getting harder and harder for everyone to gather together, so every little opportunities that come by must be really cherished. My parents brought over the photos of what they have been doing for the past few months, I brought over my pics, and we exchanged news and stories over these pictures. And of course, they brought over food, specialty 'kong piang', biscuits, mangoes (lots and lots of mangoes in along their way, no wonder), etc etc. At night it was like a slumber party, all packed in one room and chatting into the night. I know that most parents who came visiting will probably stay in a hotel. My parents never do so, but our little slumber party was just what we needed to make up for the lost time spent apart.
