CNY so far..

Well, its the fourth day of CNY already. I guess a recap on em is due eh? Well, like i expected, this year's CNY celebrations are a lil' on the quiet side. I mean, less firecrackers for 1 and less lion dances for 2. But good also la, no 'tak tong chiang' early in the morning to wake me up :D. And oh, less houses/places playing those annoying CNY themed songs (esp those with those small kids singing) :D. All in all a peaceful CNY so far la.

Went to the usual places with my parents. Met the usual ppl there. Haven't counted this years ang pao booty yet though. Sum how like no mood. Usually in previous years, surely i will count each day's ang pao collection and then total up the grand sum at the end of CNY. But this year, my ang paos are still freshly sealed with all the new crisp notes inside. Oh well, i guess by the end of this week i won't be visiting any other places.

Oh, and another very good thing (i think la) this year is 1) i haven't gambled yet!! (although it might change depending on tomorrows visiting). and 2) No beer/liquor during cny visits!! :D . Become good boy man!! hahahah..

But this year was also slightly different in a way that, since my grandma past away, i spent less time with my relatives this year. Which means no gambling sessions that we usually have. Sorry la lynn and jinn, my dad as usual don't wanna go up kl :(. Therefore, i have plenty of free time at night. Imagine, CNY second nite, me, jo, siang n nara sempat go play pool!! Thn after that can go yum cha and play mah jong summore!!

Same goes for last nite la, with the exception of the missing Siang. This time get to watch UEFA Champions League!! Like jo said, "the theme song is like sweet music to my ears" . Haven't had european football since last december. MU won last nite thanks to a cleverly taken free kick IMHO. Some asses might think its controversial and should not have stood. But i say don't suck on it. Tonight leh, big match is Barcelona against Liverpool. I didn't realize i have so many liverpool supporting friends. But like i feel intimidated. Pity them actually. Barca all the way!! :D

What else.. oh, went to leo's house for cny visitng yesterday. That was my first lion dance on this year!! haha.. Went out today with her, jac and wei pinn to watch Ghost Rider. First thing i realize at MP was ... the queue to the box office. DAMN long sial!!! imagine from the box office queue right till the end near the railing where u can look down on the ground floor!! Fuh, didn't know MP so happening man! Oh as for the movie, its ok la.. not that good like say X-men n Spiderman.. but not as bad as lets say.. Daredevil . It is a rather cheesy show with alot of cheesy antics and one liners... Remember another Marvel adaptation Blade?? Cheesiness is around there. Right after that, came home n went out to play futsal !! *happy mode*

I should be sleepin now, cos later on will be a very hectic nite/day but i can't seem to. Gotta reserve n replenish some energy. K la.. go try n get sum shut eyes for bout n hour or so :)
