Chinese New Year Happenings..

As of all chinese new years, this has been the most hectic ever.
I had no time to shop for clothes at all, and only made it to Taka at 7pm on the eve of CNY. The only shop that sold clothes that stayed open was Bossini. And that was where i got my new year clothes.


Broke the usual tradition of wearing a skirt during chinese new year because there wasn't a nice one at Bossini. And although my ang baos didn't shrink, my mum did throw me a few dirty stares. She looks forward to CNY, I think she really likes my legs. Although I don't think much of them... haha!


I think I'm pretty fortunate. I see my relatives almost once a week, especially those on my mum's side because they're always over for tution and to ransack my snack drawer(i dedicate two entire drawers to my snacks, sweet and savoury.) But its still an occasion worth celebrating when you see your uncles get really happy on champagne and belt out hokkien numbers throughout the night. And then your cousins from Sydney come back with their families and you get to hug and kiss all the little ones and get affectionately called "Gu gu" and dragged up and down your own staircase.


I like.


I let pictures do the talking ok?
Cool Alston and Joker Evan

My mama!
Ruth and Tristan
Lou ah!~~
The result: messy wealth? 发财发得不清不楚!
Counting down to new year with the radio team...

The wedding game premiere!

Spot me!

I love CK!

And of course, what's the new year,
and great friendships without a little bit of mindless boliao sabotage???
Exchange of wealth in a different way
other than giving and recieving ang baos.
Close intimate contact and
getting to know each other better sessions...
And what's my life, or my new year without
doing my all time favourite? Singing. =)

but i was very sick, and spent a few days feeling as
though i was living in a fishbowl. Where my own voice
thunders and resounds in own head... but I sang my heart out and
really enjoyed interacting with the crowd at esplanade that day!

I was so happy when I saw so many familiar faces in the crowd.
Especially those whom i haven't seen for so long....
Spring cleaning is a continual process which i think and rethink in my head.
Finally, I got off my ass and head down to Ikea to poke
my head around for some new stuff for my room....
And got my room two new friends
which Carrie and I just built!
It was satisfying.



In the midst of giving my room a facelift...
let me show you guys a picture of my room now.
Promise you won't gasp.

Bossini...better than Giodarno i suppose.

I've never seen you in skirt. Except in NYPS, where you probably already had fine armpit hair and yes, that Chinese New Year Karaoke video thing which i think i saw you in a white skirt doing silly actions and singing some Gong Xi Gong Xi song.

Now that you're even MORE famous, does that mean we won't get a chance to hang out anymore?
