Hi, it's been a while since i've blogged. rather pathetic, i know! people's going school, working ,blabla! i just rotted my feb holidays away, and soon march is coming.. Well, it's still the CNY season. much laughters and fun being heard in my neighbourhood, and i'm liking it a lot!
so yeah, past few several days i've not been attending visits with my classmates. cos i'm kinda tired, and i'd my own issues to do. i missed those times that i had with my cousins actually, looking back at the visits that i had with my class peeps. we're all grown ups now, and it's very difficult for us to be like before, innocent and nowhere to go every CNY. so we will all meet up at my grandma's place and play the night away. how lovely, but looking at the present, it's all so gone.
well, what to do! haha. we have to move on with life no matter what. and yeah, my relatives came on 24th feb, saturday, which was yesterday. and i knew it, no cousins came except the youngest one. Ivan. i'm kinda sad, cos my cousins are all leaving each other alone . there isn't that much caring like before. all on their own lives, hard to communicate.
But i'm still thankful that my relatives came. and my mother prepared quite a spread. it's been some time since she'd cooked so much. and she made my favourite niong hiang! it's called "5 spices" in english and niong hiang's a hokkien word. it's oily, but who cares! it's only once a year. and i'm thankful for my aunts,grandma n godpa n godma's visit even though it's only for that short 20 mins.
and yesterday night, there's this CNY dinner by the CC at my place. wow, it's so cool cos they have a live band, singing CNY songs, and there's meal for participants, those who signed up. i didn't experience such things at my former houses before. this is my first. and i REALLY liked it a lot. this neighbourhood's really lively. and so me and ivan went down to listen to the performance, though it's all other dialects songs, i'm still happy that i'm enjoying the moment.
then when we went upstairs,to home, there's CHINGAY parade ongoing on channel 8. and it's kinda wasted, cos there's so much fun going on there at orchard that night. and there's a after-parade party as well, cos the road's closed for the parade so they have the party to allow the participants as well as audiences to hang out there! awesome.
And so my cousin and grandma left around 930. and i went to take a shower, and stayed up quite late online to PERSUADE PEOPLE TO ATTEND TO THE CNY REUNION DINNER 2007. i'm quite upset, to see the respond. but i know it's not their faults either. it is a bit too expensive, but it's not SO FREEKING expensive to the extend that you guys use it as an excuse right? what did you guys say? "my class nobody's going, so i'm not interested!", "not exciting one la" and the reasons GOES ON AND ON AND ON. never ends right?
i'm quite frustrated, upset and disappointed over the respond. i'm not putting the blame on anyone but i'm just voicing out. i can't stand the excuses, it's rather ridiculous if you look at it. but is it that difficult to understand that we need your support for it to be successful? and it's like the very last event that we can take part in the school, with the school and to be school people for the very last night itself.
Well, that's all that is in my mind. i believe the event will be a success,i hope! because there's still the hougean spirit in every HS school leaver. and i'm going to be rotting the whole week again. but this week may have things to do because the event's on 2nd march, this friday.
I hope that my grandma's foot can recover soon, and hopefully my blood test will be posistive. cos i'm too young to die lol!
well, takecare everyone, happy CNY still and hope you'll spend precious moments with your beloved because life's too short.
till then,
~joLabels: It's all going to be over soon.
