CNY

So I am finally back in Penang.

I am not sure if I have put on weight, but my wallet definitely weighs a little heavier now.
And it was absolutely great time despite all the driving and traveling.
I love CNY!

It was good seeing all the relatives again after the last CNY I spent in Malaysia back in 2009.
I am the second oldest among all the cousins in my maternal family.
I still remember how I used to play with them when they were just kids many years ago.
I love kids!
Now that they have grown up, I can’t play with them the same way I used to.
That also reminds me of the fact that I am a grown-up now.

It was very unfortunate that I didn’t get to meet with many of my friends this CNY, especially my friends in Tangkak and ISU friends.
There were just too many places that I needed to go and there simply wasn’t enough time for everything.
Well, I guess there’s always next time.

I look forward to celebrating CNY next year.
Till then, I shall work hard!

READY!

I am done with packing!
I am now ready to balik kampung.

Hopefully by the time I come back to Penang, I would put on 5 kg from all the foods I am going to consume.
Then I hope my wallet would weigh 5 kg more, too.
You know what I mean.

More importantly, I hope my heart would weigh a ton more, carrying the joy and laughter of meeting the family, friends, and relatives.

Happy CNY! =)

Drive Safe

Chinese New Year is just around the corner.
As everyone knows, road accidents always peak during festive seasons.
This year, I will be one of the many who travel far to balik kampung.

Life is fragile.
It wasn’t long when Seet Weng died of car crash in New York.
Just recently, a long-time worker of my dad, whom I had known since I was little, lost his life due to car accident.
How many more lives need to be lost on the road?

So during this festive season, safety should be of the utmost importance (it should have always been).
You need not drive slow as slow does not equal safe.
But you ought to drive carefully.

one more week!

It’s weekend!

One more week to Chinese New Year! :D
