CNY 2007
Back from Home...
Have to wait yet another year to be Home...
New Year Eve
Spent my entire day in the kitchen to help.
Helped to fry fish... etc
Hahaha.. I learnt how to cook the prawns! I cooked one of the batches!
My cousins made fun of me.. keep asking me which dish did I prepared. =p
So happy, my mum finally joined us for reunion dinner after so many years.
Three 0f us didn't eat much though.
I had no appetite, cause I looked at the food the entire day..
Mum and Bro were shy, cause not used to eating with them...
Ate a lot more when we got back in M'sia.
Welcomed the year while eating at the food centre.
Got back home only around 2 am.
First Day
Anyway... this year's celebration was much simpler.
Aunt who used to prepare New Year day Lunch had decided not to do so as I think she got tired doing it for so many years, further more my cousins were unable to help her.
Went to my other Aunt's house, (mum's eldest sister), had brunch, because we woke up around 11am.
Brother made my mum go fetch his poor girlfriend who was left alone at home.
To think of it, I think my mum is really a very open-minded person.
She agreed.
Went to fetch her, with my young cousins, and my aunt as the driver as my mum became scared of driving after not driving for a long time.
Went shopping after that...
My little cousins ate till so messy.. Like they had moustache! Hahaha...
Went to uncle's house in the afternoon.
My super nice brother spent $50 on taxi fair to send his girlfriend home and made his way back.
See how nice he is to his sweetheart.
Sad thing is, he was never that nice to me...
Had dinner outside, went home watch tv while mum went out to gamble.
Waited for her to come back and have supper.
We ate an entire big plate at steamed salted chicken wings!
Yummy~
Second Day
Stayed at the almost the entire day.
Woke up around 12 plus, I think.
Mum cooked! ^-^
Loved eating whatever she cooked.
Though they could be things that I don't really like.
I ate them anyway.
Watched vcd and tv.
I fell asleep though...
Mum was already asleep in the room.
Yup... so we spent the entire day sleeping.
Went out at in the evening.
To my aunt's house again.
As we were visiting my grandmother's house.
Believe it. I never knew my grandmother is alive.
Saw my grandfather at my aunt's house.
Greeted him, and thanked him for his red packet.
I really don't know him at all... doubt he really knows who I am. Sad case huh?
Grandmother happened to out station...
So we just saw her remarried husband and her daughter, (my grandfather and aunt in that case).
Sadly, can't meet her.
Didn't stay long and left because mum's friend asked her to go karaoke.
This year's trip back is really 'fruitful'.
Found out lots more about my maternal family.
Realized that I come from such a complicated family line... and mine is complicated too.
I just hope that next time, should I be able to start my own, it won't be this complicated...
Karaoke, mostly older folks... songs are pretty old as well.
It's unlike K-Box where by you have your own room.
It's an big open room whereby people go on stage to sing.
I didn't sing.
Hahaha.. I chose to drink Guiness, as I'm shy to ask for Carlsberg, cause no one ordered that.
Hahaha... realized that I can really take it. Had Carlsberg the other night when having supper.
I am sure I didn't get drunk.
But I think I know how I'll behave when I get drunk.
I'll be depressed and cry.
Because that night, I began to feel depress after some time... and suddenly felt like crying. So, that must be it.
Had supper again after we left.
I really eat a lot whenever I go back...
Didn't want to drink anymore... so it's plain eating.
Home sweet home and had a super good sleep.
Woke up early, had breakfast and made out way back to S'pore.
Don't really want to talk about that already.
Was suppose to go out.
But ended up coming home to sleep my afternoon away while watching tv.
Lonely life...
Oh wells.
I suppose tomorrow will be the same.
Have a look at my family photo!
