chinese new year!!

hey tooties!

chinese new year this year have been rather different from the previous years. Usually, we would go for visitation and finally our last stop would be at our gran's place but this year is still at the gran's place but just that we are going to our uncle's place to give new year blessings. The difference is that we would usually make a trip down to this uncle's house on any other day during the cny period but it seems that this year we would only be there for one time and this time lunch was to be taken ourselves, so we first went to my aunt's house for lunch first before heading over to the gran's place to give blessings. With all the brand new clothes we put on, my relatives started commenting saying "WAH!, this year why everyone wear dress?" Probably they were shocked that people like my sister or I, who used to be not so elegant are wearing dresses and all. Like some extreme makeover or what. hahahaha!! This year's new year was special because the way we dress are different(all are so pretty and handsome), the plans that we had were also different.

we had dinner gathering together as one big family, then headed to my aunt's place to enjoy because we wanted to have fun by playing some games. Some were playing board games while a few of us ended up watching some movie entitled "chronicles of Narnia", at the same time enjoying the desserts that were prepared for us. that was only the first day....

second day of new year would always be the busiest day for my family because my mum would usually cook a sumptious spread of food consisting of chicken curry, fishball, vegetarian dish, broccoli, prawns, fish and of course a pot of desserts. All these would be ready when my aunts and friends come over to give new year blessings and usually the growing adults and some adults were engaged in a mahjong session, while the kids would be either watching the others playing the PS3 that was provided for or watching some kids movies from my laptop. Good thing I still had them or else they would make lotsa noise. this year is different in a sense that there was not much gambling except for mahjong. board game was the only thing we did..hehe..

third day of new year!...
although the day was not really packed with visitings and all but still it was rather enjoyable and quite memorable. met yati as early as 10am in the morning at the train station to train together before going to wilson's house, den on the way, we met yan zi to go together at the same time since its just along the same train track and headed to pasir ris together where wilson house was. reached his house at about 11.30, played with his daughter for a while before feasting on the wonderful and sumptious food prepared for all of us. food was heaven! after that, we stayed around, chat for quite a bit before heading off to white sands where we helped ourselves to b&j and also yati bought her headphone. we then headed off to changi airport where we spent the rest of the day there as yati was leaving for melborne to further her studies. *-I'm so sure that I would definitely miss you, YATI-*
after sending her off, the rest went off, some to town, some home but hairin and I decided to hang around Terminal 3. It's a wonderful place!! Definitely a nice place to go to for one more time!!

maybe with some............. hhahaahahaha!=D

alrights, think that's about it. will update again soon.
