What a joke.what a GREAT CNY i had.read:im being sarcastic.well,tis' may not be the season to be jolly,but still,isnt it a time to evoke those hidden feelings of togetherness and happiness?how wrongly it went for me.but seriously,it wasnt THAT horrible.hah.got you in the first few lines didnt i?
Its been quite an eventful few days of CNY for me,as i get to experience what it is like to be a proper
Chinese once again.the good ol' reunion dinner,held at my grandparents' place,was filled with endless banter,as we start our annual 'updating' of each other.for the few cousins i have not seen for the past year,its been great to see them again,and catch up on some good ol' times spent during our childhood days.ahh.those were the days.when we would run around and make plenty of noise till our parents were screaming at the top of their lungs.hahs.now its just the sitting around the table in my uncle's room for our banter.great really.Day One-went house visiting,and the first stop's at my grandparents.wished the usual "Xin Nian Kuai Le".and of course,the most beautiful "red" object during this period of celebration,the "Ang Bao" went straight into my pockets.hah.after that,went over to great-grandma's,and boy,was it jam-packed.
Went over to my dad's friend's place the next day,it was a bore to be there.just imagine of being in a place where there's almost no one to talk to other than your mum and you'll get what im trying to say.
That about sums up my CNY.not that great in people's eyes,but the reunion dinner and the events of Day One more than makes up for it.prior to CNY,paid a visit to Dear at her workplace.havent seen her for awhile.was really happy to see her and talked for awhile while she worked.hah.feel kinda bad doing that.but it was still a nice conversation,though short.
Well,that more or less sums up my entry for today.and classmates of mine,4E3,who happened to be reading this blog of mine,a gathering would be on the cards,so please make yourself free.thanks.tc.
