one of those conversations...

em: So, what should I bring to your house (for CNY)? Abalone?
me: Abalone? No, no need.
em: You sure? I thought for Chinese, when you go to someone's house, or propose, you have to bring abalone?
me: No... who told you?
em: I don't know... it's just...
me: Dear! You are going to propose using a can of abalone?
em: (what?) ...
me: Wah lau, you cheapo leh... People propose using diamonds! You use abalone?!
em: ...
me: So, you are going to hold up a can of abalone and say, "Jancy Chua, will you marry me?"
em: (started to chuckle)
me: (shakes head) I will so empty the abalone on your head...
