Happy Chinese New Year



It is the 3rd day of CNY already. So fast, not even have time to do the countdown posts this year. Few days before CNY, was busy doing shopping for new clothes and making some seaweed snacks. I think I break a record this year, bought the last piece of clothing 2 days before CNY. LOL!


The day before CNY...
Cleaned up my room, to be exact, I only cleaned up my computer desk, one of the racks and the dressing table. Hmm, they are very dusty and messy. During the cleaning process, found the shells given by friends with their signatures during F6. So sweet. Also found the yellowish photos that are supposed to be given to vampirem thousand years ago. Actually, there is another envelope with photos for Marvin. Too bad, we lost contact with this friend already. Have been throwing away my highlighter collections without second thought as they are just sitting there collecting dust. Anyway, found a good way to clean the dust especially for those who have very sensitive nose. Use the magiclean wiper sheet, ya, the one we used to mop the floor. The dust will stick onto the wiper sheet nicely and the dust wont go tickle your nose. ^_^ It did not take long to clean up everything and the result is even better than cleaning them with a wet cloth.

Bro flew back and reached home before 5pm.

As for the reunion dinner, we have had a normal one. That means no BBQ or steamboat. Mama cooked all the dishes by herself. A very delicious dinner with steamed prawns, curry beef, mutton and shark fin soup.

Later that night, we gathered at @pple's house to celebrate her birthday with her. Ccw made a cake for her. kekekeke...We did not stay long there.


After that, spending time with family and watching the beautiful fireworks on the sky. Slept around 1:15am.

First Day of CNY...
Wake up around 8 am, went to downstairs and got my ang paos from parents and sil. Hahaha...then my bro and I also gave Bulat ang paos. Our first time giving ang pao to the younger. Then we had the photo-taking session with Bulat. He wore the "tong san" clothes.

We went visiting which ended at 5pm. Some random photos...
I like this pot at auntie 1's house.

Nice green plant outside uncle 5's house.


Red rice lemang at uncle 6's house.


Kek Hua at auntie 5's house.

Watched Protege at 10:45pm.

Will continue with second, third day some other time. Tata...
