2dae is my 开工日 and for the past few days, i have been rather busy despite not having to report in Office (Oh, FYI, i took leave for ytd cos my company is US based so count ourselves lucky when they follow Singapore calendar and give us 2 days off alr :p)
On average, i have 2 houses to visit everydae for 初一,初二 and the upcoming weekend...
The 'Nu' Year rush started off with an enjoyable Cruise-to-nowhere-trip 2 days before 大年初一 and my whole family plus my Grandma rushing back for Reunion Dinner on the eve of CNY.
After which was the countdown to the year of the Ox and a series of House visiting awaits:
Dae 1
1st visit goes to Grandma's House-- Vegetarian Food
Back to My House-- My paternal Uncles wanted to see-see my house
Dinner at Yi Yi's House where all my Maternal side Cousins gether =)
Dae 2
Kam Po's House for Lunch~ Every year's tradition on the 2nd dae
and straight to Boon Leng Gou Gou's House in Woodlands for party.
Dae 3
Although school has started for the kids, Mummy is still free so we held a Dinner Festa
in my very own house, just like House warming, and invited everyone over--Including relatives like Ah Lim Uncle etc.
In fact, it was basically House hopping from 1 house to another;
celebrating, eating, drinking and gambling!!!
Well, i'm not very addicted to Gambling but still follow the crowd and play $2 bets...
Nevertheless, my youngest sister and even my cousins love the Poker game every Lunar New Year :D
This coming Saturdae will be my visit to Mr Ong's house and buffet @ Ah Teck's house +)
There goes the CNY rush from house-to-house again but
Meanwhile, let's wish all a blessed 2009 and abundance always.
