its CNY, again.
really like CNY alot :)
not because of the angpaos and all, though i admit its fun ripping them apart
more of eating, watching my grandma laugh while playing cards (gambling) seeing how weird tv shows used to be and all.
its the festive spirit.
going around, holding two oranges, seeing annoying distant relatives who are ever-so-rude-you-want-to-box-them-but-decide-that this year, you're 15, a fresh, new start of the chinese calender. you won't box your relatives, you try to win in mahjong and cards, you be nice, wear red clothes, don't offend anyone and sit and smile, nice and sweet for everyone. there, role model for your cousins, what can your parents say?
then there's the goodies. its in front of you, right there, yea, on the table. do you reach out to grab them? no. you wait. patiently, like a nice, civilized person, you wait. wait for the host to open them, spread them on some plate, a signal you can eat.
HAH, i can imagine my sis browsing the storeroom and drawers for food.
"dear container, i do not really care that you have scotch tape on you, i just want to eat you"
and we should appreciate every reunion dinner.
i helped shred the carrots. coincidence, really.
