Gong Xi Gong Xi

Kiong Hee! Kiong Hee!

Time seems to fly and by now is the Babi year, and that means yet another circle of zodiac is complete.

Anyway, Chinese New Year is a time when people who haven't sign the happily-ever-after papers receive their ang pows. Not forgetting too, the garbage collectors. They come in cranky smelly garbage trucks to beg for ang pows and as if you don't give them, ur gate will definitely be crashed down by their tanks...er..trucks.

The build-up to the first day of CNY is definitely a busy week. Besides the spring cleanings, it's time for now-or-never buddy gatherings and hectic movie catch up-ings. In fact, with the upgrade from dial-up to Streamyx at home, cinemas aren't always the destination to rush to for movies anymore. Imagine having an average-70-kbps(for my standard, that is freaking fast!) downloader deployed at home and an average of 2 movies per day. All you have to do is clicking off the mouse and by tomorrow, sit back and enjoy.

Enough said there. As for Chinese New Year, it is always the expectation of having family members gathering around and trips to each and every relatives' house to expand your ang pau collections. Forget gambling in my family. We don't. No kidding here. No chua tai ti. No mahjongs. Uh-huh. Boring? Far from it.

















I thanked everyone that wishes me Happy Chinese New Year through SMS, cards and every media available. I kinda lazy to wish back each and everyone of you. XD. Anyways, I am wishing you guys here Happy Chinese New Year and may everything be fine in the year of the Pig! Take care guys.
