The Roller Coster Ride

Today was just another rountine day of our yearly activity before Chinese New Year,

the making of kuih kapit today. I always do not get excited over doing it, but when the day arrives. I always enjoy the process of doing it. Though it is tiring, but i think i would like to continue and proud of doing it as not much people actually experience the whole process. Plus, in this new era, how many of us actually can bear the backache pain of sitting on the stool for the entire day, touching and dealing with ‘cakul’, fingers touching the sizzling hot stick.

It was a little different this year, I chen- cousin sis in US was back and in time to join, it was a couple of years since she was here with us doing.  She is heading back this wednesday to complete her Masters. Those days where she and my elder sis was playing the main role. How we use to stick celo-tape on our finger tips hoping that it could reduce the heat we feel on but instead it turn out diother way round. Even hotter when the plastic melts. Also, to reduce the heat as we are facing the fire whole day, we put on goggles. Haha, that was superb cute!

Chinese New year is drawing near, you can feel the atmosphere especially you step into those CINA shop or the night market. There are lots of stalls selling the Chinese Deco thing as playing Chinese New Year song. AS i grow older, i do not enjoy Chinese New Year as much as the past. Besides collecting the red packet and get to dress up, i don’t enjoy at all. I find it really bored, besides staring at the square box i have nothing to do to past time. It took years to even just pass an hour.Can you feel how miserable I am?

Spoke to Lydia this evening, Lydia is my uncle’s niece who is also studying in Perth. So i’m making more friends before i leave! She pretty sweet girl and gave me an advise that if your friend ask you out, just go out as there are nothing else better to do there! This shows that the place is pretty boring so better tag along with everyone to occupy everyone!

Before setting my new year resolution, i should announced that i’d achieved 3 out of 4 : of my resolution for the year of 2008.
