This CNY seems to be too quick. Feels like click its coming, click its here and click its gone. Doesn't have the celebrating feel. I blame it on the too much holidays too. Since Nov we had be in holidays mood till now.
Deepavali n Hari Raya Pussa, then came x'mas and new yr. Just a few wks later we got Hari Raya Haji and then... CNY. Used to be veri festive for this day, but this year seems to be quite low in profile, except for the spurge of new things. I think i spent ard 400 bucks or more for this 2 or 3 days. Guilt n heart pain for my pocket,
We usualli bake delicacies like egg tarts and Kueh Bulu. This time we made them a wk earlier compare to a few days earlier like last time, due to the wk ends. And we dont have time for spring cleaning till the eve of the eve night. Till then, i still dont have the feel of CNY is just the nxt day. We were practically rushing for everything to be done and I kept thinking to myself, y the rush? I dont even feel the festive joy yet, but, man... tonight is the reunion dinner. And then CNY.
It might be the working lifestyle too. We had got an earlier start for dinner then usual, and we had got more playing and all, but time still past too fast. We dont have a veri pack hse visiting like last time, we stayed at one place for veri long b4 moving off. We oni visited 4 places, frm 10am to 11 pm. Then the 2nd day oni 2 places and temple, and nobody can get in contact with an old neighbour of mine, they seems to be vanish. My uncles start calling them in the morning on the first day till night time, they didn pick up the phone. Till 2nd day n yesterday, we still cant contact them. Strange.
Its like less fun this year. One good thing is that I got to see most of my nephews and nieces, they have grown cuter, especially Huang Wei, her voice is just so SWeeettt~.
Recieved the news of death of the grandpas of Mao n stine, I think our reunion night has to be canceled, one more bucket of water just poured down. Visited river hongbao yesterday, get to see live fireworks. While boarding the bus got irritated by a damn rude n uncivilised auntie. YUCKS. Tats the 3rd day, also the most quarrel day, its right.
