Happy Chinese New Year!!!

DONG DONG CHIANG!!! DONG DONG CHIANG!!! Gong Xi Fa Cai!!! Xin Nian Kuai Le!!!

yeahz!!! is chinese new year period again with pretty new year clothes, lots of goodies & homemade traditional cuisines... ang baos... nice shows and movies... in the past when i am still younger, tis is a festival i really look forward. as i can "earn" $$$ by saying "gong xi fa cai" to all the married adults i meet and there r alot of good food around for me to eat non stop. haha... of cos, there will be very nice clothes to wear every year.

now tat i grow up, of cos i still love tis festival but is for a different meaning. i see it more as a great opportunity for family gathering. for 1 whole year, we r busy with our own stuff, seldom do we meet nor sit down and really chit chat or have dinner. new year is when everyone comes home... young and old... we will gather around and enjoy the family warmth and listen to everyone's latest updates and ou er find out some spicy news... haha...

tis year, new year is exceptional important and precious to me. as after i go back to brisbane, i wun be back in the next 1 and a half year unless some special family reason. thus next yr, CNY will be spent alone in aussie which is going to b real different from now. i dunno how it is like but i certainly treasure tis yr's CNY more than anyone do. i am glad to see so many of my relatives before i fly off tis coming sun. as usual their quest r how r u? how's aussie? how's studies? can cope? can adapt? such quest i ans dunno how many times thru out tis period until mouth quite numb but i do understand tat it their concern and care lah... heehee...

not only did i met up with relatives, as a usual practice, every year my pri sch and i will go and visit our pri sch teachers. heehee... it had been 10th year since we graduated. tis year we gave them a special pressie, is a collage pic with photos of all of us thru out these few years. is certainly very heartwarming to see all my frens and teachers who had been with me since i was as young as 12 years old. i really treasure tis nan de the relationship with all of them. last year i missed the CNY visiting, tis year i am contented to be able to say hello and goodbye to all of them once again before i leave. heehee...

well, CNY hols is coming to an end... back to reality. cannot keep on having dreams... haha... older by one before CNY, definitely wiser by one yeahz! flying off tis sun, my reality will be pack bag... still got some stuff which i haven't buy. muz start to buy and start to pack my bag so tat i can fly off on sun ah. lazy to pack but still have to lah... haiz...

overall, happy happy for tis hols spent in spore.. really happy to see so many pple though i miss out some. nevertheless, i am contented...

**countdown to special day back to Brisbane = 5 days**
