gone about visiting..

so well.. today was a pretty normal, traditional day where we went to grandma's house for a family reunion, played the same card games and shook the same hands and ate well, the same new year food like nian-gao and so on... the festivity was there lah.. and well.. so were the REPETITIVE "hey frank u have grown thinner!" exclamations... seriously.. it's not that i'm not glad with this change... but.. enough is enough lah =)

den the afternoon meant setting off to visit our more distant relatives and well, this year a little less festivity lah.. cos grandma only went to one house and then 2nd sis complain sick and din come... pooh.. but aniwez somehow.. this year's visiting felt different lah... maybe cos i matured a little? haha..

i mean. i was still prone to do the childish rants with my cousin, remembering silly things we did at the various houses during past years (like throwing slippers down the stairs and getting scolded by our grandma) and then saying silly things about anything...

but well.. difference was that this time i made an effort to talk to everyone, even the older relatives, just to chit-chat and ask about people's life... so well.. it didn't turn out to be so boring.. and well, at one house we even played LOTR monopoly... so yeah.. quite fun lah..

everyone's highlight was seeing one very very CUTE baby with a cute little clip on her hair.. wonder if im able to get a pic of her on here... but honestly.. she's so darn cute and guai.. she was like ambling around with her mom following her, and then when her mom asked her to "bai nian", she did the gesture as well...

and well.. she melted the hearts of all my aunts and of course my mom lah.. who went around hugging her and so on... hmm.. if i have a pic i will post it soon.. (and Boon Ping.. u have a competitor liao.. haha! but you'll alwyas be my cute cute baby bro!)

so the day ended with another sumptuous dinner with roast duck, roast chicken and everything lah... and well revelled in past time jokes and so on..

so.. that's for a fun day.. quite rare already now... so must treasure it
