yippee!!! it's chinese new year AGAIN! lots of food, lots of relatives & friends, lots of noisy happenings (mahjong & poker cards' games), & lots of red packets (hong bao) to collect!

BUT, this year, it's different in our family *sob sob* technically, my family is still in mourning, because grandpa passed away less than 365days ago, therefore we cannot celebrate this festive season. hence, relatives & friends cannot come into our house, nor can we visit them. otherwise, yoyo would have received tons of red packets!

granny went travelling to china with grand-aunties & grand-uncles.  mummy is on vacation leave for a week...she's @ home 'looking after' yoyo & i.

against chinese tradition, my buddy (yoyo's mummy) came into our house to binge & drink *giggle* she gave yoyo & i a hong bao each too...(also against chinese tradition). hmmm...except we did not receive 2 mandarin oranges, because mummy won't allow us to eat that.

for the 1st time, yoyo received a hong bao, & she asked me what are we supposed to do with the 'papers' ($$$) inside? *giggle* she has no idea what's the intrinsic value of the 'papers' is...but i'll teach her. 

anyway, we want to wish everybody, to have a great Fire Pig year ahead!!!
