Chinese New Year 2012


While waiting for the movie to be downloaded,
I decided to type a blog post for my blog.

I totally have no idea what to share with all my readers in this blog post.
Well to be honest,
I don’t even know whether there are readers for my blog or not.
But it doesn’t matter.
I’ll just treat this as my diary and share what happened in my life with everyone.

Up until now,
My life doesn’t change much.
Besides resigning from Tan Chong and joining a new company in Feb 2012,
I guess there is nothing new in my life.

Well Chinese New Year is around the corner.
I never get excited over CNY before,
Neither do I in this year.
Or I should say,
I’m totally not in CNY mood.

Seeing all my friends gathering with their family,
I can’t really remember when was the last time I gathered with all my family members during CNY.
Ever since daddy was transferred to KL by government,
We never celebrated this wonderful festive season with the relatives and cousins.
Rather,
We only celebrated in KL,
Just the 5 of us.

For your information,
Government servants whom are transferred to other states by the government will be subsidized a free two-way air ticket back to their hometown once a year for themselves and their children that are 21 year-old and below.
When bro, younger sis and I were still kids,
Daddy will bring us back during our school holidays.
Hence the free air tickets were used up during that time.
*my hometown is Sabah*
As our family was not so wealthy back then,
We cannot afford to go back on CNY again.
And this eventually becomes our ‘tradition’.
Not to go back during CNY.
Maybe it is because of this,
That I envy so much of my friends who can actually meet up with relatives during this festive season.
Maybe one day,
When I can afford to sponsor each of my family member an air ticket to go back,
I’ll bring everyone back to gather with the relatives.
And celebrate the wonderful CNY together.

Well I guess I should not continue anymore,
Since I’ll be ended up crying missing my relatives.

Last but not least,
HAPPY CNY 2012 everyone!
Have a safe journey back home =)

Hello Malacca!!! Again~~~

Here I am at Malacca on Chor 2~
Visited dear's parents of course,
since I'm staying his house. LOL~

Anyway no ANGPAO from dear's parents,
as his grandma has just passed away last year.
In Chinese culture people pantang to give out angpao when family member pass away.
I think this tradition is only within one year after the family member pass away?
I'm not so sure about this kind of thing.
LOL~

Visited dear's high school teacher, Mr. Tay,
together with a friend of dear's, John Paul.
Three of them do not have usual teacher-student relationship.
Well,
don't misunderstand.
I mean they are more like friends compared to teacher-student.
Stayed there for two hours listening to their conversation.

Then,
headed off to another friend's house,
Kenneth's house.
Dear said to visit him at around 4pm,
but since he has so much to talk to John and Mr. Tay,
when we leave Mr. Tay's house it was already 5pm.
And dear still thought it was 4pm or 4.30pm.
LOL~

Got a Merlot's wine from Kenneth's mom,
and angpao of course. =D

Headed home for dinner and now I'm blogging over here.

Bro, sis and cousin are coming over tomorrow.
I'm gonna have fun with them!! =)


*what to do tonight?*
