'See And Why' part II

Everything happens so fast and it takes time to realize what i have been through and how i have reacted during the peak of excitement, it seems like yesterday i was still doing spring cleaning checklist, playing with the 0.3mm thick dust, flinging unused items out my room, lending helping hand baking cookies, getting ready to begin my annual hometown 5d4n trip....

09's cny is slightly different because an annular eclipse (despite a total one) happened on 26 jan :D The sky was chock full of cloud and the bad weather nearly ruined everything. Anyway with the help of photo film, i viewed an impressive sight and snapped this.

1st solar eclipse of 2009

Back to the fact that Digi coverage is terrible especially close area, guess what, it happens no more in dad's hometown because the company sent a number of well-trained YCF roaming around the village following digi users around. So kawan-kawan cousin-cousin uncle auntie junior senior schoolmate classmate please don't feel surprise seeing 'chen wei' on your mobile phone calling you up during cny :D

Talking about my hometown trip. Thank god i manage to get back here without losing my hearing. Imagine you are closing your eye enjoying the icy cool anglia shandy, the thunderous loud bang comes smack your ear fiercely. waa you can really experience a sharp pain in your eardrum. (additional info, the explosion occurs just 2 meter away from you, and believe me the wall of rumah papan can function only 2% noise filter, so if you do not even care or lazy to press your palms tightly against your ears, you're probably at the risk of hearing loss, end up conversing like a half deaf ah pek) A 1.5m long firecracker string costs.......no idea.... it's not cheap, though. 8 strings a day the family ignited, all together really cost an arm and a leg i guess...




Hmm i have a question here. When you visit your uncle/auntie, what they will ask? (ok people, start thinking!)
- How old are you? waah so biiiiig already ar(the standard opening line)
- Further studying?
- How's college/school?
- Got bf/gf?
- How's your result?
- Woah so round wan u
- some uncle auntie like to compare kids, in terms of height/studies
- some of them even wonder to whom do you belong -_-

When the interviewing session continues, you can't help feeling dread introducing yourself. Nevermind, because getting ang pau compensates everything after all XD

Sometimes i think, adults tend to do silly thing during cny- the gift giving culture. Some came visiting bringing big big hamper (they are not good gift actually, all junks and fattening food) Come on, true friend true heart doesn't need such thing. It creates stress to others (our parents) perhaps. You give me package A and expect me to return you package B, hahaha why so silly. Headache headache, here comes another undue pressure to our dear parents. So people if you don't waste your money do thing like this, you're stop adding extra wrinkles on my parents face, thank you

* Today is truly awesome because my gang's annual CNY Visiting has been executed successfully! Haha way from ampang to lagenda mas, caught up with friends and keep the bond tight. Thanks to all my 16++ friends for keeping our one-day event such joyous and wonderful ^^ Take care...!!
