Receiving angpaus which is A MUST,
Placing bets on poker cards, A SECOND MUST,
Drinking Liquor like nobody's business, THE ULTIMATE MUST.
Now where had all the old good tradition gone to? I used to play snail racing with cousins in the past, eating all sorts of cookies, buying same design t-shirts with different colors, and popping pop-pops up to 100boxes at least. So are you telling me that grown ups have different way of celebrating Chinese New Year or simply 2011 indicates that it's time to change? If I were to choose, I would prefer snail racing than gambling, I would love to stuff all the cookies in my stomach compared to bottles of liquors. I would love to have everybody back home, rather than each of us go our separate ways. Reunion is of paramount importance, and good time passes real fast. May this year gives us love, prosperity and loads of wealth!!
Ah! What I would give to be back in Taiping for Chinese New Year!!! :(
