CNY 2013

Hi everyone, as you know Chinese New Year  pasted a few days ago I’m here to share my thoughts about the 72 hour celebration.

Reunion Dinner  

For the reunion we went to my grandmother’s house for our annul dinner. We arrived at 7 Pm as dinner would only began once all my relativities had arrived so I decided to have a little chat with my uncle. We were talking about the top 5 things to do in the Untied States. My uncle’s top 5 things to do is not really my cup of tea. At 7:30 the dinner finally began, first we tossed the lou Hei in the air, I accidentally tossed mine onto the floor!! After we finished with the Lou Hei I enjoyed my grandmother’s special one year once Buddha jumps over wall soup. After dinner my grandmother gave me my first red packet for the New Year. My parents said that they were going to get some groceries, so I said ok. While my parents were out getting groceries, I was playing my aunt’s Ipad, I was playing cooking game where you have to cook anything for the kids, I was doing some really lame stuff. After 3 hours of playing with the Ipad, my siblings and I went home. We saw our parents and I asked “ Mum Dad where did you go?!”

 They said, “ We went to Lim Chu Kang to get some flowers.” My mind was blown, why would my parents go so far just to buy flowers. After awaking from my shock I went to bed to get some much needed rest.

Day 1

Woke up in joy on the first day of the New Year, I crawled onto my Mum and Dad’s   bed to wish them a happy new year. Soon after wishing my parents a happy New Year, I was rewarded with a red packet. After getting the red packet from my parents I went into the shower and when I came out, I heard a parody of psy’s Gangnam style, instead of Gangnam style it was God of fortune style LOL. After I finished with my shower I went to the living room to wait for everyone, once everyone was ready we took a few family pictures, some of them were really funny. After taking a few pictures we went to my grandparent’s house to wish them a happy new year. I didn’t really do much over there. At 10am we were supposed to go to my aunt’s house but it was raining, so we had to wait for an hour before going. After an hour of waiting we finally went to my aunt’s house. At my aunt’s house I played with my cousin’s Xbox kenict,. I had a hard time playing because I was sitting on the floor and it was hard for the motion sensor to detect my movements. When my cousins and I were about begin our game of blackjack, my mum said “ Wee Kiat we have to go brother’s sick!” So we went home. Once we got home, I remembered that it was my grandaunt’s birthday I ran to my grandmother’s house to wish her a happy birthday. After that I came home to get some rest.

Day 2

Woke up super early on this day, I quickly got dressed and ran to my grandmother’s house. Once I arrived at my grandmother’s house, I saw my cousins sitting there doing nothing. That was until my aunt passed the I pad and said “ ten minutes each Wee kiat will be the time manger ok?” Once they got hold of the Ipad, one of them kept asking me “ When is it my turn Mr time manger?”

I said, “ I’ll inform when it’s your turn Ok?”

After being the time manger for my two cousins. I wanted to have my lunch but there’s long line for a seat, so I had wait a while. My parents were at a temple praying for us. Then I decided to call her to find why they were taking so long, but her phone was turned off. I was waiting for my cousin to arrive. At 4pm they came, I decided to challenge my 7-year-old cousin to a push up contest. He ended up beating me. At 6 pm we were all in room playing my uncle’s Iphone 5. My brother & older cousin were playing a game called thunder cats. At 7:30 we had to say goodbye. For me it was a fun 3 day gathering.J
