Can't imagine that I woke up so early today despite I slept late yesterday night. I know to some people the time i wake up is not even consider early but for a person who always wake up at 12 nn -1 pm whenever he can will consider waking up at 1030 am as super early!
Visited both my paternal and maternal grandma yesterday at both my aunty house. Every year, we will definitely visit my father's side first before we proceed with a more fun loving cousin at my mum side! No exception this year and so we proceed to my uncle's house (father side) to collect ang bao! For the first time in my 19++ years, I finally get to tried authentic Shanghai's dish which taste not that bad. Both dish I saw looked mushy as both were being placed in the steamer for a super long time which was suppose to be the actual way. Can't imagine why my cousin there seem to be entertain by watching TV and roaming around the house. No cousin were friendly, no games (not even EDUCATIONAL games) were played and lets not mention the word gamble. Boring boring cousins of mine. Time passes just so slowly as I was waiting anxiously to go to my mum side!
Drove from my uncle house (father side) to my aunt house (mum side). It seem to be able to be myself at my aunt house. Everyone were so closed that no one will be left behind in every activity. And of course, gambling will be the most popular activity at my aunt place! Played a couple of round of mahjong before we start switching between Big 2 and blackjack. My younger and older cousins boyfriend were like not in their luck! Over i win about a couple of dollar which was being donated to the temple which we went in the night. I felt kind of SIAN whenever my cousin mention her wedding which I think most likely I will miss due to NS.... ARGH!
Anyway, went to Loyang temple to pray at the later part of the night. The crowd there is like super big and the smoke from their incense stick filled the interior of the temple which made me cried! Tear kept flowing as my eyes were being exposed to the smoke which is irritating both my eye and nose. Can't imagine they brought cows over to the temple for people to touch and feed. My mum was asking tiger year and dragon year how?
After praying, we went to Jalan Kayu for Prata supper. Realize how prata became so expensive now as plain prata cost 90 cent instead of 50 cent which they charged in the past. Reached home at around 1 am and the first thing after i bath was to facebook! Muhaha.
Now i am waiting for my mum to prepare lunch to fill my hungry stomach before we will go and visit my dad's good friend! Most likely dinner will be settled there and hope dinner will be good! Thinking what will be served tonight... YUMMY!
it's you and me <3
