...and had Reunion Dinner, exchange student style.

The day dawned bright and sunny, Californian style..not. It was dreary and gloomy and rainy, London-style. But the weather didn't dampen our moods cos it was Chinese New Year! Like every good Irvine-ian Chinese, we stopped at 99 Ranch Supermarket to get our groceries.

Check out the goodies! The music was the usual CNY songs.

The real reason we came here: SEAFOOD. Huge lobster! There's a free steaming service, which was good cos we don't have pots big enough to fit the crabs.

So many varieties of the stuff, we didn't know what to buy!But we were sure we wanted crabs. The sign says "1 for $1.99." How cheap is that?!


Chinese supermarket filled with Asian premixes. Even Filipino ones.

Tribute to the crab just before I chopped it up.

Taking photos while waiting for the others to hurry so we could eat!!

Except for the crabs, we cooked the rest of the food. Cooked!!! By ourselves!!!

NUS Exchange Students to UCI 2009! Yvette's missing cos she's taking the photo.

The apartment really is that dim. Imagine how we study.

Yumyumyum! There's wine in the mug. No wine glasses :(

After-dinner party playing card games and having fruits. We were at Saboteur in this one. Look at how the miners are winning! (I was a miner.)
