eat bread...drink coffee: HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!

Happy Chinese New Year!

the long break wasnt exactly well spent. Planned to complete my tutorials but ended up catching up on a lot of sleep instead. Seriously...alot of sleep.

Anyway, as usual like i've been doing for the past 17 years, we went all the way to Pahang to celebrate the new year with my dad's family. Left the house early saturday morning at 620am and reached there at 430pm. 600 plus km!! It wouldnt have taken so long if not for all the jams along the way. But the journey didnt seem that long for me coz i slept for 85% of the wat. Had reunion dinner with my dad's younger sister's family that nite. My aunt's pro! She cooked all the dishes by herself! See...

Anyway went to my da-gu's house that nite. Sat down awhile and then went back and slept!

Next day...HAPPY NEW YEAR! Went to a couple of my aunts' houses. One of them invited a lion dance troupe to their place. The little kids really enjoyed it alot. See alot of them dancing around to the music. Nothing much to say. Didnt gamble not eat alot of new year snacks surprisingly. And NO! Im not on a diet! But then again...i didnt eat a single pineapple tart, bat kua, egg roll and only one prawn roll. Okae...pictures:

cute rite!

Next day stayed in the shophouse pretty much of the time. Attempted to do some work which didnt work out at all. In the afternoon, the shop downstairs invited a lion dance troupe also. What do u know..it's the same troupe as the one at my aunt's house. My little nieces and nephews were happily shaking along to the beat. Anyway went to the supermarket-like place later and there we see that same lion dance troupe. It's like a monopoly. Lao1 yu2 sheng1 that nite. This year we didnt go out to eat...so no real yu2 sheng1. So just for the significance we added in a few small fishes thing..i suddenly forgot what it's called. But it was fun nonetheless.

Came back on tuesday. Somehow i couldnt sleep in the car at all which meant the journey was damn boring! No massive jam at the second link luckily. Reached home at about 4 plus and rotted the time away..plus prepared abit for geog presentation. So that's basically it! A few more pictures then...
