Enter The Dragon Year

It's the last day of Chinese New Year ! My dragon year has been a fruitful one. I did aplenty this year; meeting up family and friends, spending time with 20 cents and his family. And I did all these in a short span because I had to work on the third day of Chinese New Year. Le sigh! Oh well.. at least, I spent the entire whole week with 20 cents. And it was fun. I am missing him so much already! Sent him to the bus station just now and again, I cried like an idiot. I didn't cry.. more like tearing. It felt like as if my eyes has officially turn into water pipes. Oh well.. now I can only wait till March before I get to see him.

Reunion dinner was a quiet affair. It was just me, Mom, the sisters, Grandma and my uncle. Just seven of us this year because Dad can't come back due to work commitment and my eldest aunt had to work and study. But they are coming back next year ! Had steamboat; Mom made kimchi soup too. After reunion dinner, I hang out with some primary school friends. Ok.. it was just five of us but nonetheless, it was a great gathering with us catching up with each others' lives. I only get to see them once a year so I made sure I go everytime there's a chance for most of us to gather together. Oh yea.. one more thing, Ipoh was as hot as Sahara!!


Shandy and "Dragon Meat" : Best combo ever!


Reunion dinner


Snacks at home; dumplings !

Received some ang pows and yes, there were relatives and parents' friends asking me when I am getting marry. Oh the horror! I personally think I am still very young to be married; besides, I just started working not long ago. Let me build a career first! I hung out with my friends from high school as well. It has been so long since I last saw most of them. It was a good Chinese New Year indeed. And and.. Seong Yoong and I had a great talk when he drove me to the train station.

Spent the rest of the week with 20 cents. Had Yee Sang like four times so far. I love Yee Sang though I am somewhat allergic to some of it. It has peanuts in it. Oh well.. who cares? It's Chinese New Year and I have every right to be eating peanuts contained food. What else did I do? Hung out with some colleagues too. Went over to IKEA for some Spring Chicken which I cannot finish it at all. Ooohh.. and I managed to hang out with some coursemates as well. Went over to Pork and Bones for steamboat. I'll blog of that separately. On FT Day, woke up early and went over to college to collect my book vouchers. Then then, I finally went for a movie after 27482020 years. It has been awhile; Journey 2 was not too bad.

Guess it was alright so far.. and I am off to 20 cents' place for dinner tomorrow though he ain't at home. Gosh, I miss him so much!
