Happy CNY!!!
Happy Chinese New Year! Today’s the first day of the Year of the Pig (Boar? Whatever.) and it’s also the first time that I’m spending CNY away from home =( I’m used to having many family members around me come reunion dinner; that’s how I spent my last nineteen years. This time around, there’s no one except a few friends in a foreign land…it makes even the lamb chops on offer last nite appear unappetising enough for me to go for pasta…Yeah. It makes ur brain go all woolly.
But it wasn’t that bad after all 
I mean, yeah..there wasnt any sort of grand dinner but we had it all planned : a small party involving ursie malaysians & singaporeans at ronnie’s room. The only twist was that, there was no party at ronnie’s room but we headed for a reunion dinner! All thanks to wei min and her parents who were visiting =) They cooked for us and boy, have chicken curry, mixed veg, roast duck etc tasted better! Even the indomie was great, hehe.
We had chips, wine, malaysian dinner, chatting, laughter. What else could one ask for? We talked so much we actually forgot the countdown and only starting wishing each other at 12.03…Lol.
And when I came back, talked on msn wif parents and family for 1hour+. All thanks to the great Internet =) oh well…even if I wasnt there physically, thanks to video call I could see them and they me. Nice.
And today there was a picnic at Lake Burley Griffin for Malaysian scholars..I cant remember who came up wif d idea but it turned out great anyway..the view was gorgeous! And there were big black swans….scary…
I wish I can put up some pics for cny celebrations but they’re all in someone else’s camera…oh well, i’ll put them up nex time i guess. In the meantime, I’ve gotta get out of celebration mode cuz term starts TOMORROW..arghh! havent even found out where to get College Physics by Wilson Buffa & Lou (apart fr d darn expensive Co-op Bookshop)…apparently it’s nt available in hancock =(
That’s all for now, gona put up more pics when i’ve finally got more time ( i wish).
Happy Chinese New Year Folks, have a Great and Prosperous Year ahead!
