There is no need to wish everyone a happy chinese new year, nor a need to say too much of “wealth-wishing” greetings.
If they are really recession-proof, then there would have been no recession. Duh.
Maybe I should be saying, “Happy Chinese new year, may the year of the ox be one you don’t lose your job!”
I think I wished someone to have the stamina of an ox(ahem), though I later realised an ox is a castrated bull, and it doesn’t make sense either.
I got tired from all the obligations on new year, though I should make a mental note of I was pretty lucky to receive ang pows for myself(I received more than 10 ang pows and less than 20 I think), as well as baby(30+).
I shall not mention how my gambling luck is at an all time low, but I think of it as a good way to gamble my bad luck away so my mahjong luck will be shining brightly for the coming year.
But new year is a good excuse to take a break, indulge abundantly, and just… I don’t know, rest for a while before we have to wait till December before all the festive feeling will overwhelm us again, and we get all morose over the events over the year.
I am becoming a real good cynic.
I played Scene It? Box Office Smash on the Xbox 360, mostly in between the bare me-time I had.
I need my me-time man.
But my little one had so much fun and attention over the festive season that I didn’t want to deprive her of all those despite my allergy to family gatherings.
Oh well.
Back to work today and I have so much things on my mind and so much things to complete that I dreamt of work for the night, and thought about work throughout the new year.
Most people are still on holiday and it is no use for a holiday when time is running short.
So. I am looking forward to March weekends.
Though it is scary.
I am turning 28 soon.
On CNY eve, found out I strike 4D starter and was so happy. Who knows, on the “marathon” mahjong session that stretch from 1st to 2nd day of CNY, I lost a total of $320. Only managed to “gao” 1x 5tais throughout. Wah-piangz.
Long time never strike 4D, but the winnings from it was being “donated” out to my mahkong kakis… sad
I was told that this Ox year is no good for an Ox like me.
Jialak.
