HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!
Hello! I hope everyone is in the CNY mood although mine's just starting.. I feel really new today, everything that I'm wearing is new, whee~ I guess most of us are waiting for this day to come so that we can wear our newly bought clothes as well as to receive red packets. I'm pretty neutral about the second part, since I can gauge how much each of my relatives is going to give. Oh well, nothing too much but at least it's better than nothing (quoted from my friend!) ;) I think what I love most about CNY is the fact that I get to wear new clothes and of course, removing the shells of the quail eggs that my family uses for steamboat! I did that yesterday for my grandma and I reckon I'm going to do it again today for my mum. I enjoy it, so it's okay!
I think I have no life because I'll most likely be cooping up in my room and revise for my test T_T I feel so lag behind and like there's not enough time to study. Sigh. For today, I will try to enjoy myself without worrying about my studies and tests >.< gonna be a tough job for me, I know. Anyway, I will be going to my grandma's house for steamboat lunch and after which.... NICE, I have no more plans for today. Probably just gonna hang around and chit chat with my cousins or just simply, stare at the television. Most of my relatives are in KL, if I'm back there, I guess I will be out from day to the night. The CNY ambiance is much stronger over there as compared to here.
So.. I was reading Yahoo! news earlier and know that MBS was awarded the "Best New Tourist Attraction" award. Proud :D I went to click on the photos and the lighting, lasers etc are magnificent, it's really breathtaking and beautiful. Congrats to Singapore. We may be a small country, but together, we're one big family! Coming to Singapore to study is probably the best choice my mum has ever made for me because I get to know so many awesome and lovely friends, and to live in a country that has wise leaders. BRAVO! I don't know why I'm saying all these things, it just doesn't fit into the CNY mood >_> I shall not be bothered, FREEDOM OF SPEECH!
Just one last thing for this post! Last night, I received a text from a total stranger, I have no idea who she was. She wished me happy chinese new year, and at the point in time, I thought she was my primary school friend whose number I didn't save. It was awkward, really.. I had to ask her who she was and she replied me with a name that got me into deep thinking last night. I seriously don't remember having a friend that has that name, and so I had to clarify with her and I told her my name. Amazingly and surprisingly, she knows my surname even without me telling her. BINGO, RIGHT THERE! This got me even more puzzled and so I had to ask her again, and it was then that I realized that she has a friend who has the exact same name and surname as me -_- How coincidental! So I made a new friend because of mistaken identity and wrong number, which to me, it's pretty cool. She's also a Manchester United fan like me! Dragon year is going good for me!
Anyway, I wish everyone a Happy Chinese New Year! In this dragon year, I hope everyone will have a blessed and fruitful year ahead! May prosperity and good health be with everyone always :)
