1st day of Chinese New Year

Woken up by the Chinese New Year songs... >.<

The Chan always don't go visit granny on the first day of Chinese New Year. Whatever the reason may be, we always visit ah ma instead. It used to be finding out where ah ma is, then everyone (not just The Chan but the Ng) will chioooooooooooong to the uncle's/aunt's house to bai nian. This year, we went to my uncle's house. And amazingly, we joined them for reunion dinner FIRST TIME in our life 'coz my granny's place had reunion dinner early (a day before chinese new year eve).

Maybe everyone's around, ah ma was in super duper good mood! So yeah, as usual, The Chan was the latest to reach my uncle's house despite the fact that we live just one street across them. =.= Why? Hahaha, 'coz The Chan has got two super piggy daughters. Anyhow, we reached at around 3pm and stayed there till 6pm. It was then they decided to visit each other's home (OUR TRADITION). We don't used to visit ALL in one day and miss out one or two 'coz TOO MANY HOMES lah but this year was sooooooooooooooooooooo crazy.

We chiooooooooooong through... every single house. First stop was... MY HOME. Thanks to Chinese New Year, my home loook more like a home. But i suppose if The Chan doesn't make an effort to maintain it this way, it will NEVER last long.

Weeeeeeeeee!! I looked the tallest! x)

Look at our shirts... THREE BEARS!!!

HOHOHO!!!

We were trying to pose and at the same time show our shirts ya-know... ONE GANG!

But... kind of gross (ME GROSSIEST...) while my sister looked da most retarded.


HAHAHAHAHA!!!! I really wonder why i give that stupid expression, again.



So after my home, we went... my big aunt's home. Errrr, it's not auspicious to say it now... maybe i say it indirectly... my big aunt's no longer around. So yeah, it was super rare that we could visit them. As in, we seldom got this opportunity. And this apartment is actually the apartment The Chan used to live in before my parents decided to sell it to my Aunt and we moved to the current one that is infested with ants. >.<>
LOOK AT DA BEARS...

My cousin and brother...

My brother trying to act retarded while my cousin trying to look handsome.

Apparantly, my brother just look real retarded and my cousin just... well got his usual fake-looking smile on da camera! HAHAHA!

IS HE TRYING TO TWIST MY COUSIN'S HEAD?????

x)

Hahaha... my cousin looked damn sexy... x)

Another stupid photo!

BOX-BOX!!!

RETARDED THREE...

??????

BLEAH!!!!!!!!

x)

My stupid brother can't take photos.

WAN LING!!!!

And due to time constraint, we imposed this thirty minutes limit. So once thirty minutes' up, we moved on to my little aunt's home. And yeah, i thought their home looks good. I wouldn't want a home like that but it's definitely better-looking than The Chan's. I ate loads, loads, loads of chocolates!!! Every year, they will stock up their home with loads of chocolates... HAHAHA... it's their family's culture? Yikes...

And then, we went to my uncle's home. I've got two uncles... and errr, apparantly, though i like my uncle, i don't like going to his house. Mmm, 'coz of his daughters lah. Not all three are >.<>

AND WAH FINALLY, AFTER SO MANY CAR TRIPS TO SO MANY HOUSES AND GOING THROUGH SO MANY TIMES OF MOTION SICKNESS... We went to the last home - My second aunt's home!!!!! Initially, we heard her boasting about her NICE her rooms are and when we stepped into the house, the living room was surprisingly above expectations. And when we looked into her rooms... O' My God, I almost fainted. If i were to live in that kind of home, most probably i would have ran away...

My mummy hor, hinted on us to help my second aunt... and i was like =.= don't bother to help peeps when your own home also... look so horrible, terrible, vegetable, can... >.<

Even my sister can't bring herself to mug at home 'coz of the "pressure". Haiya, there's just something we really got to do so that it is condusive for mugging and everyone will love going back home!!!! I AM SOOOOOOOO DETERMINED TO GIVE MY HOME AN EXTREME MAKEOVER!!!! So, i've decided, i'll work during the March Hols if i can find a job that fits my schedule. And i'll leave the month of April free for all other activities 'cept WORK.

Anyhow, the last photo was taken at my aunt's house and yeah, showing us play "IN BETWEEN".

My baba lost twenty plus bucks... *guilt*

The Chan always don't have the luck of winning. Hahaha, initially, i ain't interested to join in this game lah 'coz i don't gamble. In the end, i thought i'll just have some fun. So for the first time in my life to what i've known, i gambled! Donated all my coins and joined forces with my sister. It was fun with all the screaming and shouting and tense atmosphere... NOT FORGETTING A LOT OF LAUGHTER WHEN MY COUSIN LOST, LOST, LOST consecutively. Hilarious... even the adults laughed!

And from cents, the bet rose up to almost the possiblity of PAYING 90 BUCKS if you "SHOW HAND". Haha, thanks to my baba. He wanted us to show hand when we got this damn good cards... in the end, we lost, and paid twenty over dollars... this means, if the next one lost, the twenty over dollars plus other amount, which add up to around thirty, will tripled and hit the CRAZY 90bucks!!!! Hahahaha!!! I think i ain't those gamble sorts, i don't feel addicted to the game at all.

Nobody dares to "SHOW HAND" after my baba lost twenty over dollars... so we tried to clear the money in the centre but 'coz we can only do it in small amount, it was seriously SLOW. In the end, my uncle backed my cousin up and tried "SHOW HAND" and they won, so we finally clear the amount in the middle. Yikes, don't know how to explain. Initially i was also quite blur but got the hang of it. It was an easy game... hahaha! A game involves risk and calculating probability.

And i realised i was the one calling for decision... >.<>

My aunt cried 'coz FIRST TIME everyone came over to her house. We used to skip it 'coz of da time and other factors. Hahaha, kind of... Mmm. Cousin drove ah ma home before sending us back! WEEEEEE!!! Kind of a cool chinese new year this year.

Sayonara!

Ciao!
