Happie Chinese New Year ppl!!! :)
Tis' the season to collect angbaos again hehe :P & of course lots of family gathering!
On new year eve, i was busy unpacking the stuff i bought home from hall & spring cleaning my room. Phew~hard work :S Luckily i finished just in time for the reunion dinner. Our reunion dinner always has steamboat with hotplate for us to bbq food on it. Yummy!! Then after the hearty meal & washing up, stayed up to watch tv shows until about 3am before going to sleep (partial 守夜 hehe)

On the day itself, as always went to my 大姑 house first to 拜年. My 大姑 suffered from slight dementia & her conidition seemed to have gotten worse as she could hardly recognise me & ask me the same question over & over again without she herslef knowing it. Feel really sad for her, hope she can recover soon..
Then next we went to my grandpa's house to have dinner. My grandpa's house is always full of life during Chinese New Year for all my aunts & cousins would come back & get together. Though not as lively as when my granny was alive, everyone still cherish the time we get together to wish each other happy new year & receive hongbaos. (guess i still missed her a lot...)
This year, my grandpa catered buffet in the house, consisting of noodles, rice, curry, pork...lotz of stuff. Guess catering saves us much effort & time having to cook for so many people & later having to wash the dishes :)
After that I played & chatted with my cousins who have so obviously grown much older (ok...matured :p) before going off to River hongbao with my family. As usual there isn't much things to see except for the cute 12 zodiac figurines and the food fair which are the main attractions every year. But this year, we managed to catch the fireworks on time! The fireworks were so beautiful, with colourful lights sparkling in different patterns on the dark sky. Magnificent!!!

The next few days i went around visiting my reletives' house, both from my dad's & mum's side & went shopping around...Then today, my reletives gathered at my house for dinner. Have been so busy helping my mum preparing & cooking all the dishes. Woo~soo tiring!! But seeing all of them enjoying the meal, guess it was worth it :) They just left home after a night of chatting & gambling so now finally i have the time to update my blog :)
With a blinking of an eye, the cny week is over. Received quite a number of hongbaos but haven't really total the money yet hehe. Another year have passed & the year of the pig has arrived~ hope everything will go well this year! Btw today is 人日 so happy birthday everyone!! :)
祝大家猪年大吉!! 新年快乐!! 人日快乐!!

p.s ah ma...祝你新年快乐
