Good work..
I changed my fb profile as well.. lol.

Called my restaurant to change the Shark Fin Soup to Seafood Toufu Soup for my reunion dinner, the restaurant refuse to give any discount insisting the package for Reunion dinner is fixed. My friends think I am 'crazy' turning down shark fin soup for toufu soup, but I know it worth it. Its for the future of our Sharks!

I think its a standard practice everywhere. I am still wondering why they still charge the same when we choose not to have the shark fin soup, never understand that. Anyway, this year, I am going to a restaurant that doesnt have shark fin soup in the CNY menu so that save the hassle.
