5th day of CNY

Today supposingly is said to be an auspicious day to start work for the year of the rat... so here i am, in the office when most of the people are still on holiday celebrating and gambling for the new year..

Not many people in office today.. only 14 of us. and everyone is quite free as nothing much to do for today... tomorrow will be a hectic day i think, because most of the people are coming back. Thinking about it makes me feel stressful as LRT will be super pack with people and it will be like a moving sardine can.

The new year is getting bored for me, not as grand as before.. This year, we took our family picture again, but comparing to last year, 1 person is missing.. the previous year, grandpa is missing... 2 people is not in the picture anymore.. the feeling is rather sad, the joy and laughter is not there compared to 3 years ago..

Still remember, those were the days, when grandpa is around, many people will come to the house to pray, and lion dance troupe will be there too to usher in the new year with loud drums and active lion dancing, tonnes of ang pows flowing in.. but for this year, everything has changed, even uncle Louise is not here this time.. everything felt...... DIFFERENT.. silent and gray

Where are those happy days? Can i relive in the old times again for the joy and laughter??

Anyway, one the 1st day of CNY, went to watch CJ7.. and on the 3rd day, watch CJ7 and KungFu Dunk. . the show was nice, CJ7 was touching and KungFu Dunk was full with computer effects.


OH.. on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd nights, i played a game of Poker with Terrance, Ong, Hell boy, Wei Jet, and Roshan.. not much winnning tho.. but still there is a little winning.. so should be a good start i can say.
