Y Lunar New Year Eve.
HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR EVERYONE!! woof*
it's day one of CNY today, and i've spent my new year eve fruitfully. i've been busy the whole day, till i've only got now to update my blog. teehee. slept to my contents till 12ish this afternoon, before i began cleaning up my room. the final shot. (:
i dug out all my photo albums and flipped through it. without realising it, i'm actually taking a trip down the memory lane. i've changed alot. i'm serious. haha! then i began stuffing everything into my wardrobe, and made it neater. after which, i tidied my bookshelf, then vacuum/mop the floor, then ironed the big loads of clothes. once i'm done with all that, i began pampering myself and did my own DIY hair treatment as well as manicure and pedicure. wahaha! the outcome was ... okay? my first attempt okay. it's hard painting my right hand, 'cause my left hand is unstable aiight. LOL. it was all good tho'.
at 5ish, i helped out my mom with the reunion dinner preparation before we had our dinner at 6ish. mommy dearest whipped up a few dishes and our dinner became a really big feast. =D it was fun eating together and also, we ate the yu sheng in advance this year. it's supposed to be eaten on the 7th day of CNY, but because most of us won't be free on that day, thus we ate it today. then after dinner, we got ready to head out. ooh! i started using my groovy green contact lens today! i felt it's not green enough leh. should have taken cool green instead. :/
my dad drove us to chinatown to feel the festive atmosphere. whoa, it's really sardine-packed alright. we had to squeeze our way through. ohwells, though it's tough squeezing through and i hate all the squeezing, but it was all fun. feel the vibe! (: we managed to buy a few goodies at lower prices too. haha! check out the lightings there. we did not stay for the fireworks/firecrackers at 12mn tho.
we left chinatown for loyang da bo gong temple at 10ish. the road there was jam packed, and my dad had no choice but to park his car rather far away. we had to walk quite a distance into the temple. again, the temple was packed with people. there was some mini stage with performance there as well. we went to pay our blessings, before we stayed by to watch the performance. oh, i went to read those zodiac's fortune there too. seems like those born in rabbit year will have a smooth sailing year ahead. and it says that rabbit will find their true love this year. HA, what crap! i don't believe in that. and then, i went to read the year of pig. it says their year would be smooth sailing as well, and that career would be good for them. it would be the best time to change job as well. ohwells, that's you-know-who's zodiac. :/
riight, we waited for the countdown. we were given party poppers to pop at 12mn. haha, the countdown began, and everyone popped their poppers. HAPPY NEW YEAR. the "god of fortune" went on stage and sang everyone a song. haha! sms-es and calls came flooding in. i texted my blessings to him, expecting that it won't be responded at all. but hey! he replied to me. =D that's a good start for my year. at least i know he don't hate me. i wish everyone good life and fortune ahead. (:
left for home aftermath. i was on high tide and my bladder was about to burst. i refused to use those mobile toilets, so i made my father speed home for me to use the toilet. wahaha! and we got home at 1ish. (: just got my ya shui qian from my parents. woohoo, first ang pau of the year. =D and now i shall go do some stuffs, before i hit the sack. gonna wake up early tomorrow morning. so laters~
GONG XI FA CAI!!!
thanks for not hating me... (:
