It's lunar new year once again!! The one and only festive occasion that's filled with red packets containing keching keching and of course the yummilicious goodies! Love letters, shrimp rolls, pineapple tarts, bak kua, curry and dim sum!!

And I have sore throat. OF ALL DAYS i just had to have sore throat on chinese new year. =( I have to refrain myself from eating curry, shrimp rolls etc. Any idea how miserable that feels! I tried to ignore that sore lump in my throat on the 1st day and i woke up feeling 3 times worse! Lesson learnt: It's not true when they say poison neutralises poison. So for the rest of today i gulp down pi pa gao like nobody's business. It does help a little though!

Went to watch Protege with family last night. It's a serious movie which really brings out the impacts of drug trafficking well. It is the kind of movie that makes your heart cringe after watching, because it potrays how helpless those who are implicated are. It kinda makes you think that actually people like us are so superficial. Going shopping buy pretty clothes to beautify ourselves and stuff. There are kids out there who are like hundred times worse off than us!

Anyway back to CNY haha. It's the only occasion that wears me and my family out too. What with cleaning, shopping for new everything, visit relatives. Even oreo is worn out! (because we brought him out today, and he was the center of attention teehee!)

CNY is about families gathered together in a cosy space, shouting on top of their lungs to be heard and i like this kind of feeling! =) However, every year there are bound to be relatives asking me whether i have finished my A's. And every year, my aunties and uncles will ask me when i'm going to get a boyfriend. So this year i replied that next year you will see my boyfriend and the year after you will see my kids! So prepare the ang baos!
