Have a little time before I go to my grandparents house for visiting, today's the first day of CNY. CNY is an event with both Pros & Cons, sacrifice a little bit of freedom, plus privacy for money and good food. Fair enough, I did enjoy the money Ive collected so far (which amounted to a pathetic amount of 80 bucks and a total of 8 packets), while enduring the amount of trespasses into my territory. Yeah, and there are even people who come and ask to use the printer. I was really kind of taken aback but I agreed, (don't wanna spoil new year mood u know), and i was about to start a dota game. I oblidged. And it turned out well, that guy who was dressed smartly took slightly less than 15 mins to complete his stuff and his reward was a 10 buck angpow. It's kinda rare to find 2 digit sums in your packets nowadays. 4 bucks are in abudance and i don't get a bad shock anymore when i recieve 4 bucks. It's good to prepare yourself, take a deep breath before opening your packet because you might find only one note inside. Nono, not a blue one, but a single, pathetic, purple note. (yes, 2 bucks). if it's 2 pounds i won't mind though..but 2 SGD, is really miserable. It's the thought that counts, yeah right. CNY is the perfect event to see how a particular family or couple is coping econimically. It's not an accurate guage because how much people give is not entirely based on their means but instead generiosity plays a big role as well. Im expecting a big ang pow from my aunt, as well as my parents and I can say that wud be probably 70-80 percent of the total money Im going to collect this year. And just on a serious note, yeah I was unfortunate enough to recieve a 2 buck packet, and thank god I don't remember who gave it to me...:)
Food wise, Ive yet to explore the wonders of CNY goodies at the living room. It sure looks enticing but Im kinda holding back because there are like twenty people downstairs. And it's not a good feeling having toddlers and children running up and down the stairs and barging into your room every 20 seconds to say BOO and refuse to close the door after doing so. It's just sooo irritating, and it disrupts me playing Dota very much. Not that im being antisocial, my relatives, distant or close are all classed as distant to me. My cousins are either too young or too old for my liking....and I really really have a hard time socializing with anyone. Ill be contended with Dota for the time being. And despite having said so much, all I did was to sleep for 4 hours and only one miserable game of Dota. (17-3 techies, woots!).
Going visiting soon, but only my grandparents. (mother's side). And it's quite close to my house, gonna visit my aunt n uncle whom live at the same place. Gonna raid their ba quas and pineapple tarts soon.. wish me luck at not catching a sore throat.
Wait, i think im already suffering from one. Non-stop consumption of Ba kua for like 30 mins is extremely harmful to my body. And it is evident that my throat is really being damaged insanely...I better douse myself with Herbal tea soon. Opps, my throat I mean.
Im not expecting much from the harvesting of Red packets this year. I just wish to hit 300 SGD, and Im contended, and I'll be able to buy my At900.
Yesterday was pure lameness. I slacked my day away as there was no training.
Gonna continue post later. GTG. Cya
