was really lucky that i got the CNY's first day off work but had to work on the second day. if i had worked on the first day, then i'd have no hong bao to take home anymore. fortunately my colleague was willing to trade places with me and i got to practise the annual CNY traditions with my family =] *whew*
my extended family in our yearly photo takings!

and the amazing couzzies that i never fail to brighten and light up the festive mood! oh, and also, who never fail to eat up my money! *boohoo* another year of losses.. hmmphf.. they are always teasing me that cos i lose money, i dont wanna play already, so tt's why i can never recoup my losses.. issit true? but wont i lose even more even after i've played for quite some time? *scratch head* i'm a low risk taker. bah, lemme win next year!

funny pix with the gang! alot of kiam pah faces.. but there's always a hint of joy somewhere in the pic cos we cant contain our laughter! hehe..



lurrve the contrast of the guys' pix! in one, they are to be the bodyguards of my aunts..

and the other, they are all acting cute with their assigned numbers! so cuuuuteeeee!

a must do every CNY is taking place in the backgroud. Blackjack!

alrighty, so tt's the first part on the first day. after tt, we proceeded to more yummy food at Hua Yu Wee, which i never thought was so popular cos my colleauges and frenz were talking abt it. the art of good food runs in the family it seems! oh jeez.. but it doesnt seem to bode well for me. *oops!* here's the 3rd Yusheng for the year..

and this is a good place to hone our skills for MJ since we're all kinda noobs.. teehee..


now for the last photo of the night..
before i tuck myself into bed and prepare for work at 7am. *sniffles* boy was that day a crazy one. learning some new stuff for just 2 days and i had to put it into practise. really very thankful and glad for helpful colleagues that asked if i needed help and offered to lighten up my workload. *beams*
