CNY issue

for whatever reasons i just dont like chinese new year despite the mouth watering pineapple tarts and peanut cookies...

nian gao? no thanks, i dont eat...i am now 5ft 5 although i didnt eat nian gao all these years! so what has nian gao have to do with growing taller? is just a saying...
whatever cakes or cookies dont seem appealing anyway...i hardly eat!
carbonated drinks? not interested too!
gathering with family members? yea, i do look forward to gathering with them but at least we spend in a more quality time and not quantity of time together...much of the time we spend during cny is just the quantity of time, can't really feel the real quality time together as a big family...all the time we were rushing to cook and pray...i guess cny is not about PRAYING and COOKING!

cny has been so boring all these while because we knew we are getting the same old food every year! still the same pork, chicken, fish, veg, etc...okay enough said, the food is in my mind and is putting me off soon!

in the later years, when more and more people left to somewhere else for good, we started steamboat...but still those same food is still on the list...

and for heaven sake, all the food cooked, lasted from cny eve till 2nd day of cny...!!! T.T

we prayed from cny eve till 2nd day of cny too...

sometimes my friends are happily enjoying themselves during cny really makes me envy...how can they enjoy their cny so much but not me?!

i seriously dont!

adding to that, i just realize, how i wish to celebrate cny in the real chinese culture country! i'm sure it will be god damn more fun and happy! is just like you celebrate thanksgiving in the states!

really wonder how the chinese celebrate their cny in china!!!


p/s: sorry dad, if you get mad when you read this...too bad too cz that is what i really think about it! probably is time to make a change...it is not hard to change though, is the willingness to change...

For me, CNY is the only time can get all of my friends and relatives together. And the only time i can still be jammed in the Pasar Malam though it's already 1 a.m...

And also have d great fun to have small bet with friends.
