Chinese New Year 2011 update

Back to the grind, eh? I know you are, I can see the evidence on KL/PJ roads.
Of course I went back to my hometown for Chinese New Year as well.
We went back a few days earlier because one of my uncles passed away.
Then I returned to work yesterday because Joey Yap said it’s auspicious mah.
So I listen to him lor, ‘cos I’m very Cina one.

This time round I didn’t meet any of my friends.
Except for Richard and TiMei, when we visited Bhante Sumana.
Besides that and visiting my relatives, I stayed at home. Slept and fed and mushroomed.

On the 3rd day of Chinese New Year, we went to my Dad’s annual classmates reunion dinner.
This tradition is nearly 50 years in the making, without fail!
We all used to go with our parents as kids. Then as we get older, we stopped going.
Got other things to do mah, like hanging out with our own friends during CNY.
Now we are much older, we all go again. Cycle of life.
