as usual, i spent my cny at my grandparents' hse in kluang.
we headed back pretty early this yr, left at 10am on sat morn, reached there ard 1pm.
surprisingly, there were nt many cars @ the customs, it was a smooth sailing journey all the way until we reached msia's North-South highway, that's when the jam started.
it wasnt really jam la, but there were lotsa vehicles on the road, making all the cars slow down their driving speed.
we headed to KFC for lunch before gg to my fourth uncle's place to load our baggages.
washed up, played with my cousins, slacked abit til it was time for dinner.
it has become a norm that we'll all go to my first uncle's restaurant to hv our reunion dinner.
every yr, we'll get almost the same type of ingredients for steamboat so there wasnt much things to look forward to la..
dinner started ard 8.30pm and my table is packed with all the kids..
usually we'll only hv 2 tables but surprisingly this year we hv 3 and the bigger kids hv the table all to themselves.. heh
perhaps itz due to the already-there-hunger, Jian n i sat thruout the whole course of dinner n we were left to clear up wadever is left on the table at the end.
i was totally bloated after dinner n we went to my grandfather's place to slack.
the young kids started playing with the fire crackers the moment they stepped into the hse, while the adults were bz catching up.
the stuck-in-the-middle ones like us were merely lazing ard n watching tv.
this yr's new yr is slightly different coz GAMBLING is finally allowed!!!!
haha... as it was "banned" for the previous few yrs, evy cny was pretty boring~
but this yr, itz different, we had 2 mahjong tables set up, tables for ban luck n BJ etc..
everyone was totally occupied.
i finally learnt how to play MJ this year.. n i realised itz actually pretty entertaining!
no wonder ppl gets addicted to MJ the moment the sit down at the table... i finally experienced that type of feeling myself... lol
i played MJ with the kids so we din play with $, itz merely juz for entertainment purposes :)
NJ n the cards hv took up the majority of the time so yup, this was how my cny in msia was spent. we din hv to go any place for visiting since all relatives hv already gathered at my grandfather's place.. hahaha..
din hv much of a mood to take many photos so that explains the few fotos u'll c below, all taken with the n73 baby bought for me! :)
flying towards my dreams
