Happie CNY chu er... haha
Shou "sui" on chu xi ye till like 3 plus... managed to stay awake by playing mahjong with sibs and mum... haha
The next morning, i was very fresh which i didnt expect... tot i wld be like a drained out and lazy... but i wasn't... it was the direct opposite. It was fun preparing to go out.. i like my cny look... styled my hair reddish and funkie... den put on my fragrance and new socks, new shoes, new shirt and new pants, den went pai nian! haha very fun... lots of my relatives commended on my new look and most of them noticed my ebase shirt and my hair style... very fun and nice... like being judged positively on some runway for fashion and style.. hehe
Visited only like 3 relatives' place, but i ate A LOT... like absolutely gorging myself with all ze food... pineapple tarts and ba gua are my some of my personal favourite... yupz and yumz, of cos the hong baos... definitely. Got home in the mid-afternoon to start preparing for the dinner feast. Xiao-shu came with my two realli adorable cousins. Super cute and very guai, played with them... very very shuang.. simply so super CuTeEeEeEeE! gosh... haha, after that all my dad's side relative starting to stream in... by ard 5 my house was packed with cousins and uncles and aunties... super wow and i like that crowdedness... gives this festivity an extra edge. Dinner was super good, my mum whipped up like ten dishes enuf for 40+ people imagine that... i helped out in the kitchen for like eons... haha played with sprinklers with and without the whistling stuff, running ard the playgrd making loads of noise. Jux simple fun, yet brings back lots of nice memories. Later in the night, its when the fun began. Started with blackjack den went on with this realli fun game which i am not sure wads it called... Everyone is suppose to pool in a dollar each and the dealer will distribute 3 cards each to every player, den will compare the number on the cards. The biggest is 10 and the smallest is 1. For example if u have 3 cards (jack, 3, 8) amounting to 21... it would translate to a value of 1. It is not accumulative nor the absolute value, the value will actually go all the way to 10 den start from one again. So if the total amount of the 3 cards is 11, den the value would 1, 12 would be 2 and so on and so forth. The winning combo is 3 "ah-peks" which are jacks, queens and kings. Very fun rite, no need to think very straight-forward, win means win, lose means lose.
I think i gained quite some weight after munching on so much cny yummies... I love all these food, i dunnoe y but it seems like i have this unlimited desire to finish all CNY goodies... like a MONSTER haha.
