Chinese New Year
is every unmarried people's MOST favorite celebration.
I love it.
Of course i love CNY !!!
How could i NOT possibly LOVE CNY ???
2 things happens after CNY is over:
1. Get fatter.
2. Get richer.
(Yes, fatter so i NEED to go to the gym ^^)
Chinese New Year is when all family members gather together during the Eve of this celebration and have their reunion dinner at either a restaurant or one of their houses.
Last year my family did it at my grandparents house then this year my grandma got lazy to cook so we went to a restaurant. Bloody slow service. We waited outside at 8, went in at 8.30, got served at 9.30 and finished at 11pm. Then went back to my grandparents house to collect angpao ^^
There's 17 of us...my cousins including me and my 2 brothers and 1 more cousin on the way which makes it 18 and i am the lucky number 7th eldest. My reunion dinner wasn't that fun. In fact for the past few years it's been getting duller and duller. 10 years ago was a different story.
The next few day went to other relatives places and some came over to my house. On Saturday i made plans with my high school friends and went to their houses to "bai nian". We wanted to go to this temple "Thien Hou" temple but visiting 7 houses didnt make the time for us to go.
As for today, Sunday, i made plans with my high school classmates to eat 'dimsum' in the morning at 10am.
(Is eating dimsum at 10am early ??? Because only 9 showed up.)
So me & QQ got there 1st. Sat at a table, many waiters came to serve us dimsum but we kept showing our hand saying "tak mau sekarang...nanti ada orang lagi" Then QQ who didnt know how to order tea chose the most expensive tea for us...LOL
After 15 minutes LX showed up, add 1 chair & 1 tea cup.
(Couldn't tahan d so we started to eat first.)
Then 10 minutes Cheng came, add another chair & tea cup.
5 minutes later CF came and added another chair and tea cup.
Next was KC and again another chair and tea cup.
Another 5 minutes later YH reached and by that time 6 of us were squeezing at 1 small square table and drinking tea from the small tea pot QQ and i ordered at first. We had to pull another table over and called for another pot of tea.
Then FK came wearing a singlet and said it was hot...SINGLET !!!
Last to arrive was KM who showed up at 11am.
Chee Cheong Fun
Siu Mai
Yam Dumpling
Fried Shrimp Dumpling
Fish Ball
Glutinous Rice/Loh Mai Kai
So makan makan makan makan...
We refilled our 1st tea pot don't know how many dozen times...seriously...and our 2nd tea pot's tea tasted weird (cheap tea...LOL). Then everything came up to almost rm100.
YH & FK left after we finish so the rest of us cabuted to my house because it's the nearest. Gambled was what we did the whole time.
Cheap cheap we gambled only Rm1
And maximum was Rm10.
T.T i was the dealer at that time and Cheng bet her Rm10 as her last bet and she won !!! T.T
Fun-OK
3pm like that KC, CF, QQ and i went to Fun-Ok while Km went out with her family and LX & Cheng went Sg. Wang. Lol not enough of cards we continued playing "Cho Dai Di" there...AND I WON COUNTLESS OF TIMES !!! BUT WE DIDNT PLAY WITH MONEY THIS TIME !!! Rained very heavily so we sat until 4 like that then left. Before that we ordered something called "Yi Da Dui" meaning 'one bunch' of something...
1 of the most fun CNY...dimsum...gamble...angpao...makan...
Hope next year is EVEN better...
