this year's chinese new year is really dull for me. apart from having a little fun in the baking aspect, (i have been filling my time with making pineapple tarts with my mom), i feel no excitement in the air... and oh, the bad part of cny this year's my extended family's not going to have reunion dinner just cos no one wants to open their house. last year and for many other years, it was held at my house, until to was almost every year and then i think everyone got sick of it.. lol, but they don't open their house then what to do. then i persuaded my dad to hold it at a chalet, but he didn't listen, so know he has to be content with no reunion dinner! i really dun mind that at all! cos im not close at all to my paternal side.
side tracking, i saw my cousin in the chinese papers! it so happened that it was the first handout of newspapers from school (this happened like last week) and i remember cooling down from morning run and felt rather uninterested in anything. then someone put the papers on my table... lo and behold! i saw my cousin chong han on the front page! whoa, i was so perked up by that. haha, he's such genius in mandrin while im the opposite and so effectively bilingual too. im envious that he's having such a good life now (eating good food and putting on lots of weight!). i noe i noe.. must study hard then can.. haiz..
however, something to look forward to is seeing samuel!!! im sure he's getting smarter than me haha and soon will be able to talk on the same wavelength as me. and he's sure taller n more handsome too! hehe. :) he's so adorable and i love him sooooo much!! let me show u some pics of him! :)
here's samuel at 2! so darn adorable!!! and note his baby fats on his face. :)
chinese new year 2007. he played his violin and i played my recorder, haha, i dun think these instruments really match but who cares, we had fun! anyway, samuel's baby fats are dimishing. :( in the background is my beloved grandma! i lub her loads too!
