ChInese New Year Is Here!!!

Finally, the long awaited Lunar New Year is here!!!Yay~!!!Gong Xi Fa Cai, everybody!!!Hmm, this week don't have to attend classes except for CSAS.

[MON] CSAS class was fast, I think finish in about 1hr 15mins. After that, went out to collect prune cake for my mum then I met her at Toa Payoh to do some last minute grocery shopping for reunion dinner on Tuesday evening. At night, went downstairs to walk, went to the wet market to buy some ingredients. The market was sooo PACKED! My goodness!!!All the last minute shoppers!! Then, bought mandarin oranges(meant as good luck).

[TUE] Spent the morning spring cleaning my room and GOSH! found so much stuff!!I think I collected all of useless stuff over the year!!!In the afternoon, prepared lunch for the entire family, just fried beehoon with lots of vegetables!!!In the evening, had reunion dinner. It was noisy, with everybody chatting away.

[WED] Went visiting in the late morning to my dad's siblings. Stopped by my aunt's place to have lunch. Then, went on to visit more relatives. In the evening, we went back to my aunt's place for dinner. Its like a meeting place for all our relatives. The place was small since its a 3-room flat. I remembered my uncle joking about being in a can of sardine. As most of the children have grown up and become "big" size, we need to stand up and slant our body to 1 side to allow the person to pass. Haha!!!

[THU] Went visting in the early morning. This time, we visited my mum's siblings. Went to my jiu jiu place before we visted my foster grandmother at the temple.After that we went back to my aunt's place for dinner. YOu see, my aunt place was the meeting point for my relatives to "catch-up" as well as to gamble.

[FRI] Met Phoebe at Clarke Quay MRT to accompany her to submit her application to University of Newcastle as well as to verify my school results.After that, we met Sally at Dhoby Guat, Plaza Singapura to have lunch. We lunched at Cafe Cartel. Shared a plate of ribs, potato wedges and pasta. After the lunch, we walked down to Orchard.



That's Phoebe & Me at Cafe Cartel!


Phoebe, Sally & Me, after a FULL meal!!!*burp!!!*

[SAT] My dad's friends visited in the morning. Hence, I was unable to go to Hazel's place at 1pm. Then, my secondary school friends and he, came over in the afternoon. After that, we took turns to visit each other place.

All in all, had a wonderful New Year.Now, must settle down for school liao. Till I write again...
