So GONG XI FA CAI! WAN SHI RU YI! LONG MA JING SHEN!
HONG BAO NA LAI A~~~
And yup, CNY (at least for me) came and poofed just like that. This year was somewhat different from before though... For one, relatives got to see my bro's wife-to-be and my sister's bf for the first time. And of course, the visit to Darl's house on Chu Er was quite an over-whelming experience too.. In a good way though!...
Ever since I started to generate my own income, the significance of ang pows have changed somewhat signifiantly.. From the kid who craved for ang pows to get that extra ''ka-ching" for wasteful expenses, I'm now this young adult (yes young adult! not adult.. not old adult etc) who considers ang pows as a token of good luck / something along the lines of "Here my dear relative, take this red packet and make sure you come back again next year safely and soundly!"
K enough of my retarded and sometimes weird thoughts, shall now do my fav summary of yays and nays in my life recently! Yayee~
.Have yet to count my ang pow $$ .. gawsh its way over due... Way WAY overdued..
.The two shirts I bought from Marcella seemed quite worth it... Pretty cool taylor fit self-customized formal attires!
.My buddy at work (J.T) is going to leave the company next week.. And at this rate, I will have no more lunch buddies .. :/
.Been improving heaps and bounds on my keyboard/piano playing (at least to me) LOL. Thanks darl for teaching me how to play Cannon in C.. I can't believe how i can spend hours just playing the same few tunes over and over again !
.Had this painful irritating mouth ulcer since Wednesday... Good thing its starting to disappear after drinking some Redoxon. OMG Redoxon is like a miracle elixir!
.Completed my first ever stock trading transaction and made like.. $100 after brokerage fee! Woots! *pops champagne*
.Last but not least, shall wish all dear readers (or without the s) a happy year of the dragon.. Huat a~~!!!
