A blink of the eye...and everything's gone.

Oops, I know I shouldn't feel that way because it's still Chinese New Year. Oh well, I shall talk about it to make me feel lively for some time.

The Eve of The New Year
Went back to Dunman in the morning with Dunmanites posted to Tampines Junior for the time being and felt so at home. But we're still considered visitors nevertheless. Aww. =( Met many teachers and the Principal of course. Chatted with them but there's still a level of distance nevertheless...but I'm still happy to have gone back there...the students were all celebrating in their respective classrooms and the teachers and Principal have prepared a video for them too. =)

In the evening, went to Ah Ma's house for the reunion dinner. We reached there and the atmosphere was really festive due to everyone's presence. And the video-ing one of my uncles did added to the atmosphere. Lo Hei, chopsticks, steamboat dinner, smiles, 'cheekiness', surprises, hearty talks...

Stayed up till one plus at night, with the vampire series keeping me up till that time. Before that, watched TV with the countdown party thing and played blackjack with my family and went on a winning streak...

New Year
Started off the days late as usual since my mom and brother love to sleep till 11am, 12 noon...-_- Got dressed up and ready to go with a bag of oranges and my own bag and visited my grandparents' houses, my uncles and aunties' houses...

And gave oranges to the elders and my parents in exchange for loads of angbaos =)

And then came the talks...
"Woah, this is your daughter?" Really cheesy though. =)
"Getting prettier by the year eh!" -_- Haha.
"Eh, don't hit the roof!" !!!
"Woah, you can go marry someone already!" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"So you're Sec 4 now? No? Oh so you're JC1 now!" -_- Lol.
"So which JC you're going to?" I dunno =)
"How did you do for the O Levels?" =)
My Ah Ma said, "Woah, everyday different outfit eh!" =)

And then came the tasting of the foodies and drinks and playing with the little cousins. And two little cousins asked me, "Why'd you permed your hair?" And so I replied honestly, "Because I want my hair to have more shape." And they told me, "Next time I also want to perm my hair." Oh my, so cute!

And then the 'serious' thing; blackjack. Hmm, after the eve, I haven't been on a winning streak...just some winning, some losing...about neutral. -_- I'm quite sick of the game already, playing it for three days and one day we played till 1am. Lol,

I think that's about it...I dunno what else to type anymore....oh there's one more thing: I am supposed to be in school today, but I guessed I was too tired that my hand involuntarily slammed down the alarm clock...
