~*~ Happy CNY Day One ~*~
Yesterday was da nian chu yi. As usual my family will go house-visiting at Malaysia early in the morning to send new year greetings to my paternal side's relatives.
Stop #1 Eldest aunt Da Gu's house: Chatted with my 3 lovely cousins. I got special interest in AhZhen's new part-time job.. haha~ can get contact lens from her at discounted price in future man. Nice! I never stopped eating at my Da Gu's house. I like the Ng Gu Kueh (not ang gu kueh) she made herself... took quite a few home to Singapore. First time being a passenger on my cousin's car with AhZhen and AhZhuZhu jie jie as drivers. Lucky me and my mei mei!!!
Stop #2 Eldest uncle Da Bo's house: Went visit his house this time round. Haven't been to his house for ages. He was pretty sick this time round, so decided to pay him a visit. I had fun looking at my cousin, RuiQin's wedding and honeymoon photos... so sweet... they said that it is cheap to take wedding photos in Malaysia and there are many places suitable for outdoor shoots as compared to the tiny red dot... heehee~ Got an additional ang pao this year cos RuiQin is married le... the first and only married cousin from father's side so far. Jia you my other cousins... looking forward to getting more red packets in the coming years!!! Hohohoho...
Stop #3 Second aunt Er Gu's house: Yummy lunch to be served! I love eating at my Er Gu's house and it brings me lots of memories of my late Ah Ma. My Er Gu looks a lot like my Ah Ma. Eating her food is like eating my Ah Ma's cooking. I ate a lot of pig's stomach ya and potato chips. Learnt how the 6D works in malaysia.
Stop #4 Back at home @sg: Clearing the customs didn't take long this time. Got good to clear the customs at 3 plus! Not much cars from Malaysia to Singapore. But it's not the case for the opposite side... got jam from Singapore to Malaysia. I was pretty shagged on the journey home and by the time I reached home, I quickly headed to my cosy corner to visit dreamland. I nap quite long till I got woken up suddenly by my dad. Urged to take a bath and scolded for sleeping so long. We were going to be super late for our next house-visiting. Stop
Stop #5 Ah Gu's house: This time is to send new year greetings to my maternal side's relative. Everyone would gather here and this makes house-visiting a lot easier.. haha~ My mummy had many siblings!!!! Including her, there are 11 children in the family, 2 boys and 9 girls. Hohoho... we were overwhelmed with handshakes and "Happy New Years" when we reached. Of course, my sister and I had endless of red packet given to us. Happy Happy!!! Had nice little chats with my aunts, uncles, and cousins. Oh my, I am graduating soon and most of my relatives were like saying "welcome to the workforce, the cruel society". How I wish I can study longer and delay my working life's start... hohoho... introducing to you little BingYang. A darling who is caring to "elders", followed my mummy around and gave her a little green stool to rest on.
Stop #6 4th Aunt Si Yi's house: This is a place where the gamblers gather to exchange pointers. I participated along with my cousin Darius. It was the first time that juniors were allowed in the game of World Pool aka In-Between. A long session of fun and laughters, guts and luck! I lost $7 in the end... hohoho.. I didn't pay a single cent to play, with my mei mei and papa as my investors. Not only we play with our own cards, we can join in sponsoring good set of cards.. haha~ fun fun. Huat ah!!!
