haha happie cny all!!!
i this morning not as lucky as u all lerh...
had to go to 2 temples to pray... first one was a really large old temple...
they burnt incense inside so it relly stunk my eye, had to kneel in the hall for a chanting session.
the monk was like chanting non-stop and i managed to entertain myself by making up a tune to go along with the monk;s chanting rhythm haha. =X
it was so stuffy and hot inside, so much smoke., so crowded with people.. managed to escape.
second one was way...better. all incense were burnt outside, inside was beautifully decorated ceilings, not charred smokey ceilings. i even had a vegetarian lunch in their hall, they do this every year, make a vegetarian buffet. with free soft drinks ^^.
then i visited my Grandma's house and remained there till at night.
wow, u wouldn't expect my Grandma to have so many guests!!!
about 9 families visited her today. mostly friends, relatives and cousins.
thus i got 8 ang baos today, quite good larh, ok? 8 ang bao lerh, first day of cny...
dun think that i only appreciate their money, im not money-faced ok? actually i like their presense, it makes the whole house very lively, most of the times, its just quiet...
so excited! tomorrow is my Grandma's B-day. woohoo
she's so lucky to have so many relatives visit her!! tomorrow i bet more people will come, she's ordering a buffet. and i will b part of another of her b-day photos ^^.
i just love being and elder, haha, dun get me wrong, i dun like to be an uncle, but being a role model to my younger cousins give u a sense of authority and erm... happiness, i like watching them play, reminds me of when i was that young and i thought that the moon was made of candy... CANDY? haha.
cya, i gotta get some sleep from this exhausting day, have fun on the second day of CNY. wishing all of u prosperity..
ps: i think i have more then enough money to buy all the charity welfare tickets myself. heheh, i dun need ask my relatives to donate this year...aiya so paiseh..
