Chinese New Year 2010

Hi people

Happy chinese new year.

this is my first year out from Malaysia , away from family and friends to celebrate my CNY.

Somehow, I am so glad that I ate my reunion dinner with my koko and cheh cheh.

Though there is no Chinese New Year atmosphere,

I was glad that we spent time together-gather!

I have never tried not celebrating CNY without families,

well, now I know how lonely without family members during CNY.

Kinda promised myself to celebrate CNY with family members start from next week onwards.

Brother has been OUT-FROM-HOUSE from CNY for the 5th year,

until he forgets the CNY culture and things we do on sa-chap-meh, cheh yit and cheh ji.

So, bro, if you ever see my this post,

please make yourself at home next week.

At least, recall what you've done 5 years ago before going overseas!

Well,

as I always know,

CNY has bad bad weather.

FREAKING hot ! and, always reluctant to move here and there.

Always feel sleepy back from pai-nian-ing to relatives house.

We do sometimes, fall asleep in relative houses just because the weather is too hot.

oh dear,

I know a lot of people will want to have cold weather

I wish to feel when I was back in Malaysia.

After staying here for few months,

and especially during CNY now,

it snows.

I missed the SMELL of firecrakers in and out from my house.

I missed the sun shines on my house .

I miss my home.

A place where I am supposed to be right now..

Oh well,

I do know that I am here just to study.

Will be back soooooon !!

Hheehehe...

Today is CHEH JI.

Where am I now and what did I do today??

Attended class.

In the library typing this now.

Feeling hungry.

Going to cook for myself later.
