Chinese New Year's Eve.
I slept very late the day before, and it was my elder sister who woke me up, lying to me that it was almost 7 pm and my entire family is waiting just for me, for our reunion dinner!
Tricked by my elder sister, I sprung out of bed just to discovered that my mother was still preparing the dinner! Anyway it doesn't matter, because it gave me time to take a shower and prepare for the reunion dinner.
For the reunion dinner with my family, the first dish was Yu Sheng, and followed by a nice feast of steamboat.
If you are wondering what is the white piece of paper, it is actually the 'Rituals & Meanings' of a Yu Sheng. It came together with the Yu Sheng that my sister brought!
Adding the ingredients...
Lastly, adding the garnish...
Very action, my Dad reading aloud the 'Rituals & Meanings' before we're allowed to start 'tossing' the Yu Sheng.
My Dad is still reading and already my brother started fiddling the Yu Sheng.
5 minutes later....
After the messy but 'properous' meal of Yu Sheng, we cleared up the mess and got ready for our steamboat dinner...
Yummy...
Me and my younger sister playfully waiting for our dinner...
After the scrumptious steamboat dinner, it was still early, so I tidied up my room...
New bed sheets and blanket!
As usual, I tidied the room with my brother blasting away his music. Oh! not to forget, brand new air con!
My younger sister couldn't resist lying onto my new bed sheets!
After tidying up my room, it was almost close to midnight and I played Mah Jong with my brother, elder sister and her friend...
Family Portrait 2010, Designed by my brother! Say... Does my cheeks really look so wide??
I slept right after finishing our game of Mah Jong which was close to 4 am, and got ready for the most anticipated festival of the year...
Chinese New Year, Day 1
As usual, I was the last one in my family to wake up and prepare.
Every year, on the first day of CNY, my family will always arrive at our grand parent's house before 12 noon, but this year, I think it was the latest time we ever arrived at our grand parent's house! Almost close to 1 pm! I think it was because my Dad woke up late?
When we got to our grand parent's house, me and my siblings did the usual routine of greeting everyone in the house, most importantly our grand parents! And making sure that we do not miss out a single red packet from a relative! Wahaha!
Look what I have found from my cousin's computer!

So I brought him to the market for a short walk.

From another camera...
What is CNY without some gambling?
My gambling luck on Black Jack wasn't too good this year, but my luck on Mah Jong still fairs pretty well! Speaking about Mah Jong, after we departed from our Grand Parent's house, we headed over to our Aunt's house.
Over there, I played some Mah Jong with my parents and brother. The Mah Jong tiles is super cute because it is so small! Look, I compared the Mah Jong tiles with a lighter...
The 13 Wonders!
It is a little hard to arrange the tiles to be straight because it is too small & light.
Chinese New Year, Day 2.
In the evening, me and 2 of my younger siblings, Karin and Jun Hao, went over to our big Aunt's house for dinner. It was my first time in a decade to have dinner at my big Aunt's house during CNY!! I decided this year CNY to be more 'family', that's why I headed over.
After our dinner in my big Aunt's house, me and my cousins went to Changi Airport to sent one of my cousin off...
Standing in center is the cousin that will be going off to Australia for studies.
My brother Jun Hao and Hui Chun. She is an air stewardess from SIA.
After sending one of my cousin off, the rest of us headed over to Tampines Mall to catch a midnight movie, 14 Blades...
I personal gave a ratings of : 7/10
Nice effects and fight choreography.
Story-line is slightly hard to understand at the beginning.
Cool cast like Wu Chun, Donnie Yen, and Singapore's very own Qi YuWu.
More 'Illuminati' hand signs...
This 'binocular' hand sign I did, Jessie strongly claims that I copy her doing it when in fact,
I copied Lady GaGa!
Anyway, the Illuminati thing started when my brother told me that he heard about the Michael Jackson's conspiracy; that MJ was murdered by the Illuminati.
So from then, I searched through YouTube, and watching more on the Illuminati. In the end, I discovered so much more shock secrets about it. Go search and watch about it! I believed it, do you?
That's all for my CNY!
