Went for reunion dinner on the eve of New Year at BaoBei's place as well as my family's place. Dino gave me Ang Bao after work on Wednesday! Yippie! My very first Ang Bao! Though the money is not much but the words he said to me are quite encouraging. Faizal wish me Happy New Year too.
Received Ang Baos from a lot of my cousins and Uncles. Surprisingly, my eldest cousin gave me cash straightforwardly without any Ang Bao. BUT..he wasn't married yet! Neither does he have a girlfriend. He said that since he is working, so he feel that he should give. It's quite a big amount! I have NEVER received such a big amount for my new year before! I thank him but still feel quite surprise.
Have reunion dinner with all of them afterwards. Strangely, I have nothing to talk about. Probably because we are all grown up and have our own lives to lead. All of my cousins and relatives are doing much more better than me and strangely, none of them are Christians. Yet they lead an abandance life. How unfair.
Bought a low heel shoes at the last minute for the New Year cos I don't have much time for shopping. Didn't buy any new top too. Only bought a new pair of Jeans. On New Year Day 1, we all went to my eldest Uncle's house to celebrate again. Receive much lesser Ang Baos. Saw some unfamiliar faces in the family. I heard that they are my distant relatives. But I didn't mingle with them cos I feel very strange talking to people that I do not know. Went to my 2nd Uncle's place to eat steamboat(again?!). My Aunty gave BaoBei and me Ang Baos. When we went back to count, the amount is actually the same(is minus the money my cousin gave me) but BaoBei is jealous that I get the extra money. Get to sit my cousin's car for the first time! Haha!
Went to watch movie with BaoBei on New Year's Day 2. Watch CJ7(Chang Jiang 7 hao). Nothing meaningful. It's about an Alien who came into this world by accident. The main character's Dad is a construction worker and a rubbish collector. His Mum passed away years ago when he was very young. So his Dad is the only sole bread winner who raise him up. The Alien has resurranction powers. It can resurract anything dead to alive, old to new. It appears as a normal "ball" at first. After that, it formed an Alien dog. But there's one day that the character's Dad died of an accident during work. The doctors tried very hard but couldn't save him. When the boy learns of the news, he was devestated and said that when the morning comes, his Dad will be back. The CJ7 Alien then resurract the boy's father. But it pass away after that and became a soft toy. The boy kept it close by his side. The ending was good. The CJ7 did came back..but bringing more different colours of CJ7's back! If you ask me the rating, I would probably give 2 stars out of 5 stars.
Will end here for now. Wishing everyone has a prosperous New Year!(except CHY!!!)
