ThE yEaR oF aN oX


It been a fruitful two days of Lunar New Year... more than the hongbaos, I enjoyed the quality time spent with family and a very good catching-up session with my cousins.

Unlike our childhood days, basically now we only get to see each other once a year but whenever we get together, there isn't any awkward-ness or silence but non-stop of chatting & chatting ... or I should say shouting and shouting this year? Haha!

Cause we need to challenge the super loud background “music” caused by different generations of people talking at the SAME time.

Block-catching, block-hide and seek, dog and bone, running competition, catching, fun @ the playground, shopping, role-play as doctors, role-play as vampires/priests etc was some of our childhood's activities.

Forced ourselves not to sleep so to sneak out early in the morning to go swimming (as then we faced strong “opposition” from our ah ma), waited for hours outside the swimming complex way before the opening time, ignored the scolding of ah ma and proceed to wherever we want to go, mini “party” @ the carpark top etc was some of our childhood's achievements. Haha!

Times really flies... we have all grown up! =)
