Good evening readers!
Happy Chinese New Year! The first day of Chinese New Year is ending soon as I type out this post and visitations for today are finally over.
Praise the Lord for today!
I’ve collected lots of red packets but had no time to check it out as I immediately check out the latest updates in the tech world once I reach home lol.
This year there was lots of new addition to my extended families, namely babies!
My God, there were so many babies born from both my mom and dad’s extended families that I am going blur.
Here is one of them that I took with my phone’s camera:
Cute eh!
Also, I went to my God-brother’s place, which used to be my God-mother’s but bought by him. I use to go there during Chinese New Year and family events but have not since my God-mother shifted to Punggol.
Well we went there today and I almost couldn’t recognize the place! Firstly, this car park that you see in the picture below, use to be just a ground floor car park. Also the two flats behind it weren’t there at all.
The government made so much upgrades that I really cannot recall anything from my childhood days.
Sad man…I wonder if I head overseas to work for a few years will I be able to even recognize
Also, I’ve found out a few things during Chinese New Year:
- People remember bad things easily than good ones.
- People get tired easily.
- There is no place to seat.
- People forget grudges from the past during Chinese New Year.
- Spending of cash is more freely during Chinese New Year.
- People are crazy about 4D during Chinese New Year.
- Fumes from joss sticks are very strong in my house. (Cough, cough!)
- Red packets flow like water.
This is what I can think of at the moment. There’s definitely more to come as I go for more visitations.
Alright I got to go revise my Java now. Thanks for reading and gong xi fa cai!
God bless!
