#86 Red packets
Wednesday, February 9, 2011
Today is the seventh day of CNY, which is also known(to the chinese) its everybody's birthday today (: so SANG YAT FAI LOK ! Im done doing visits already but not gambling yet >:] Today post is something you can call it random. You know, everybody thinks that CNY is all about the money and angpau's we collect. When i was younger,my siblings and i had this lil competition;" Who collected the most red packets this year" Well, it was always me that collected the most :3 As im older now, things start to make sense. CNY is nothing about collecting the most angpau's nor collecting more money. CNY is about gathering your family together on new year eve for dinner and have a bonding time, a good way to start a new year; visiting your relatives (bonding) and friends too dont you agree? Meanwhile, red packet doesnt have to be big. Giving a red packet to someone is like, wishing you good luck,a good life,a prosperious year ahead,a meaning. It has nothing to do with big money and you going all "wa that fella dam kiam siap man..5 bucks only mcb" =.= . It did happened once when i was still living in my old house. The kids in the neighbourhood were a lil fricked up. I over heard them talking on the phone sayin "eh don need come dont need come, not big also lah. 2 bucks only. dont need come already lah. we go out now" dam lebih right i want to punch those kids (they are not my friends) During this cny, the only fun day i had was yesterday. Travelling from friend to friend with other friends. It was the only day in this cny i went visiting. Sad right i know. CNY this year? yeah its different.
