Back!!

I'm back from family trip...! Gosh, time flew by really fast.. it felt only yesterday that we just had our long awaited family trip in Brisbane! It's scary to know that one year just came and went like that!

I haven't had time to sort out the photos we took this CNY... Will share with u all as soon as i can... Am kinda still in holiday mood.. my brain is still lazy, my fingers are still lazy, my eyes are also lazy, everything about me is still lazy.... I'm sure you understand the feeling :P

To welcome a new year, it's Chinese culture that we must wear new clothes.. This year, i sort of got lazy and didn't buy myself any new clothes... However, I did help my niece who came to stay with us... She lives in Australia and it's her first time celebrating CNY.. I took her shopping and got her a really nice floral dress, a pair of stockings and ballet shoes to complete the look.. She loves her new look very much! AND she worships me like crazy! Everything about me is incredible in her eyes! I know I'm incredible but i didn't know i'm THAT incredible muahahahaha....

My mum made me a set of bed sheet... she said i could only use it in the year of dragon... it's soOOo cute! I'm still a kid in my mum's eyes... haha

Piggies to go to sleep with me every night

Here is a CNY picture i really like.. Took this on CNY Eve...

I am ready to welcome the year of dragon! We've cleaned our home, put up the CNY deco, bought lots of CNY tit bits and cookies...

Niece stuck this at door.

She was in charge of cleaning washroom

Ma's really creative.. we found many old lanterns.. we wanted to throw them away but ma thought it was such a waste to discard so she converted them to....

Red red red! Nice or not...?

It has a name.. called 喜气洋洋的花园 haha...

Tonight, I wanna do some last night shopping... because.... I have not bought any new clothes for myself this CNY! Woohoo... Am so last minute haha... I need a pair of new shoes too... maybe a new bag too... and more cookies!

Gong Xi Fa Cai!

恭喜发财！

梦里有梦

Last night, I promised my bro that I would send him to airport at 530am. So I set my alarm and went to bed as early as i could.

My alarm didn't go off. Instead my niece who came to stay with us for 2 weeks woke me up and said I've overslept! OMG!!! My bro is going to kill me! he has an important meeting in KL to attend! I rushed to the washroom to brush my teeth as fast as i could.. I was cursing in my heart, while at the same time my niece pestered me to be faster *stress*

Then I woke up to find that it was just a bad dream! *phew* It was still dark outside.. I haven't overslept! *relieved* I got up from my warm bed and took my time to change, brush my teeth and wash my face... by the time i finished, i still had plenty of time!

Then something weird happened....

I couldn't tell if this is just a dream or if it is for real...! It's explainable.. It just kinda felt unreal... then i woke up again to find that everything was just a dream! I was still on my bed, in my pyjamas!

I was darn confused!! which is real and which is not????

Were I dreaming both of the times? Is this real or am i still in my dreams? I stared at the ceiling for a couple seconds trying to get things straight... Yup, this is definitely REAL! And like my 2nd dream, i did wake up early, and before my alarm went off! And we did make it to the airport on time.. and had blueberry cheesecake, Tiramisu, Red Velvet cake , Valencia Machiatto, Mocha, Mango Passion at Starbucks for breakfast (gosh, that's one week's worth of calories in one morning! haha)

Such confusing dreams i had today... Guess I must have been feeling very stressed sub-consciously for having to send bro to airport early in the morning. 幸亏一切是有惊无险!

Dream is like an illusion (like the clock on this wall)

~ They feel real and unreal at the same time

P/s: The chocolate drink at this TW cafe is super good!

Time flies....

It's my first post for 2012!

Yes, I survived another year! Hooray to that! Because life is, you know, full of uncertainties... You could be laughing with your loved ones now and the next second, you are dead... Why am I being so pessimistic today.... Am not. Am just being realistic because that is the way life is.... like a box of chocolate... you could be eaten anytime...

It rained dogs and cats straight for at least 8 hours since midnight the other night. Many places were flooded. I didn't realise its seriousness until i saw it with my own eyes.... I decided to use a different route to office thinking that the road would be clearer like how it always is. Instead of turning left as usual, i turned right at the traffic light. Straight away, i was greeted with a red dragon (traffic jam). Apparently, the cars couldn't move forward nor backward because the whole area was flooded. So bad that I couldn't see land anymore.... it was like, i was about to drive into the ocean! I did make it to office at the end but i was really late.... the office was practically empty. 99% of my colleagues were stuck somewhere due to bad flood!

Then i was told that a student and a guy who tried to save her couldn't be found after they were washed away by the crazy water... The tragedy happened right at the place where i was in the morning! It was a sad news.. who would realise that you would lose a child, a friend, a sibling, a cousin, a husband/wife, a parent etc on 5th day of a new year, to people of any age....? See, life is very fragile isn't it?

What's 2012 going to bring... I don't know... Let's get fortune cookies to tell me...

This little cookie holds my future!

I tore open the pack and cracked open the cookie... A note holding my future was neatly folded in my fortune cookie.......

So what's my future?

Gosh, I've always been a fool! >__<

I don't wanna be a fool anymore....!

But I was suspicious. They probably stuff all fortune cookies with the same note. So I took another one... just to double confirm. Well, u just gotta do it to find out right? hehe...

I broke open my 2nd fortune cookie and it said...

"Don't spend time. Invest it"

"好好利用時間"

Oh gosh, another BINGO! 又被説中了！Lately, i wasted precious time on movies and shopping!

Gosh, these fortune cookies really know my fortune! @.@

I'm going to buy a big pack of fortune cookies tomorrow.... Whenever I am a bad person, I will draw one and have it reminds me/ lectures me/ wakes me up to become a good and wise person....
