Chinese New Year = Visit to relatives.
It's boring. They say "It's a rare chance for everyone to gather together. It's in the root of the Chinese to remember your tradition values." But seriously, each year, I see lesser and lesser of a point to go relative visiting, coz I have no one to gather with. I dun really get along well with my cousins and we have nothing much to say. But if say, we do get along well, then we can gather anytime we want right, so what for gather only during CNY?? My relatives do gather sometimes throughout the year too, like X'mas and some special occasion like weddings. Sometimes, must still go to give them face la...
So I was there at my aunt's house last night, figuring what will happen in the future for my CNY. Will I still go to my cousins' houses on my own/with my bro? What if I choose not to get married? Do I still go to collect angbows? Maybe I will be like one of those singles featured in the nespapers, going overseas during the CNY period. Maybe I should start thinking of my overseas destinations... Hmmm...
Oh, the count of angbows has officially declined too. I remembered when I was a child, I collected 10+ angbows, once close to $500! Last year it was $200+, inclusive of my close family. But honestly, I would prefer the company than the money lor... If it isn't so boring, lesser money is also okay...
Let's hope Day 2 is more enjoyable coz I have other plans... Haa...
