happy CNY to all!
so far for day -1 (eve), 1 and 2. i have so far ....
-gotten angpows
yes, in all shapes and sizes, but the same colour. HOWEVER, there is an increase in the way these angpows are made, like there's some flowers or orange shapes jutting out of the tip of the red packet... sheesh, innovative.
note, i have not looked at the amount, i'm just thankful i have an extra injection of income. :)
-chatted with distant relatives and parent's friends
haaaa, yes, the PR skills are in the midst of advancing towards a new level. what with the "hi, how are you? you look so beautiful, i like your top.. blahblah. How are your children? must be handsome right?" and the "oh, so where are you schooling?" .. OH, let's not forget the all important DREADFUL question.
"any girlfriend?"
"no"
"how come don't have?! SO HANDSOME WAD!"
and ohmygershwinmusical, you can purely see that they said the 'handsome' statement coz they were expecting a yes lar.
in my opinion, even some not-so-attractive people get spouses and partners, which is totally fine with me, fortunate ones :)
*insert-
i really wonder why is it SO important to get a girlfriend/boyfriend now? i
mean, hello, first you ask us whether we've got a girlfriend, and then raise up
a barrage of questions afterward on why we don't have any.. then FINALLY tell us
to CONCENTRATE on our studies rather than get a girlfriend.
sheesh, adults. kkk, back to the main topic.
-stuffed myself with aunty sue's yu sheng.
it's like the BEST yusheng i've tasted in my whole life, it's the usual health fare of different coloured vegetables, but what makes it so special is that she added shredded abalone, jellyfish and pomelo. fwoar, really melts in your mouth, and the perfect excuse to eat alot coz it's VEGGIE and it's HEALTHY. haaa, i hope it neutralises the pineapple tarts and bakwa (shall rant more on these 2 evil foods later on) .. plus, it's roughage for poo-poo time. so, it's better for the bladder.
-stuffed myself with pineapple tarts and bakwa and kwey lapis
haaaa, these 3 are like, staple foods in my household, and ohmygosh, the folded pineapple tarts in like cocoon shapes are my favourites, they just melt in your mouth. ooo. bakwa, the only reason why i support lung cancer, ngeh. and KWAY LAPIS, best preferred with prunes.
and this year, my mum has added Minute Maid lemon+lime drinks into our Drinks Ammunition. like, inhaled within the 1st day, thanks to me.
-slept at 4am plus plus
thanks to my inadequate time management.. or rather DISCIPLINE. been DOTA-ing alot, else procrastinating on my aesthetic analysis which was due last friday (ARMY DAZE!) or Popular Culture Assignment which was ALSO due last friday (smoking). haaaa, oh well, slap me silly and call me timothy.
----
all in all, i'm kinda happy that my regular CNY tradition has come back, last year wasn't that.. cheerful, but we all grow up sometime right? :)
and i still am growing. ketchup wityall soon.
