CNY 2013
CNY has officially ended on 24 Feb 2013!!
Although CNY is 15 days, who wont want it to be longer?
Anyway, Let me bring you through my simple CNY celebration!!
~ another fast forward entry with loads of photos ~
#ootd for the 1st day of CNY
Dressed in my new shirt I bought from CottonOn for 40% off~
I bought 1 more jeans & 2 more skinny chino too =)
Golden fish at my uncle's place & they are soooo pretty!!
This CNY year is the snake year, but it isnt really that well for us.
So hope that seeing these pretty fish will bring me good luck!!!
Over the years, we always have a bowl of HengHwa meesua as a tradition.
the unique blandness coupled with cabbage taupok & mushroom makes it a must to eat!!
Lunch was over & next was a Chinese Chess battle among the cousins =)
Afterwards, We decided to drop by Gardens by the Bay, but it rained just as we alighted.
We tried to journey on further into the greenery, but it kept pouring heavier.
No choice, we gotta make our way back home for early rest~

......................
...and it is 2nd day of CNY!!!
To many, CNY is gives the legitimate reason for them to gamble,
but I belong to one of those families that prefer catching up!!!
We talked about how each of us spent the previous & upcoming year =)
Catch up finish, must find games to play right??
Thus, my dear cousin brought a new card game from China...
#Three #Kingdom #Kill
This is an interesting game with a few different ways of playing,
but it requires the player to be proficient in Chinese to read the descriptions.
For one of the matches, I became KING & I chose CAOCAO!!
Behold my power as a ruler of the kingdom & expel all rebels + spies!!!
Our scaled down meal for the very first time & we still cant finish~
Normally, my mum will cook alot more dishes and also RICEE!!
This year was quite a relief as most of the dishes got cleared away, phew~~
and it is........ LOU HEI TIME~~
Sakae Sushi YuSheng with lots of SALMON SASHIMI~
EVERYBODY READY~~
All went over to my Aunt's place to have a seat while we digest
.........and eat some more new year goodies over all sorts of beer.
as for me, I had Somersby Apple Cider
Say it with me, Som-Mers-sBy
1 alcoholic drink with loads of laughter......
turned Red like a lobster in no time.......
we all head home despite the unwillingness to end our game..

#Megan's birthday, 15 - 16 Feb!!
@ Amara Sanctuary Resort
As you can see from the pic, my friends love alcohol alot alot~~
They brought alot of them to the party, but there is no way we will down all of them.
We try to keep drinking at a fun level without having to hug toilet bowls to sleep =D
Party was over & we stayed on.....
Hope Megan had a great birthday celebration with us around~~
*must take good care of our gift for you, okay?*
Indoors, didnt sleep well on the floor coz the aircon was too cold.
Outdoors, also didnt sleep well coz mosquito was buzzing & ants crawling around.
BTW, I am not smoking in the picture.
My friends thought I was smoking coz of the toothbrush in my mouth.
I was just trying to burn the mosquito coil to shooo those bloodsuckers away!!
