Happy chinese new year eve
omg...it's the time of the year again.
HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR (eve) EVERYONE!!!!!
I missed out on celebrating Chinese New Year with my family last year and I'm not back to celebrate it this year too.
*pout*
I miss my family already!!!
:(
It's not the Ang Baos (red packets) that i miss, nor is it the goodies.
It's the family reunion that i miss most.
Ok...fine, i do miss the goodies a little :p
But we had a big family reunion during my last trip back to Sg,
all thanks to my bro's wedding.
So i can't complain.
And it's supposed to be reunion dinner tonight.
I'll have to eat it myself.
Maybe with Jason.
And even some friends.
ohoh...
i suddenly remember some traditions about Chinese New Year eve.
- Clean the entire home to get rid of all the things that are associated with the old year.
- Put away all brooms and brushes.
- Pay all your debts.
- A new set of clothes and shoes for children, preferably something red or orange.
- The later the children sleeps tonight, the longer their parents live (longevity).
I am so gonna pinch and slap myself to stay awake tonight...
I'll let you guys know how i spent it tomorrow.
Before i go,
I wish everyone a Healthy and Properous Rat Year ahead!!
