I love Chinese New Year!
I just love Chinese NEw Year. It's not just the ang pow and yummy food (although, it's mostly that..haha), it's also about meeting up with friends and family. It's the best reason to meet up and play mahjong, cards and just talk crap. Hey Sing, both of us need to build up our mahjong skills and train to be future tai-tais as well as mahjong kakis. ;) Watch out world! *evil laugh*
Anyway, this year has been the best chinese new year ever mainly because it's a nice 2 day break from work (really appreciate holidays now more than ever) AND we're finally moving from cards to mahjong! Ryosuke: you need to teach us how to play Japanese mahjong one day! :) Weee....and on CNY eve, I drank so much champagne and umeshu that I slept so well on Sat night. Lots to smile about and just enjoy life. That's what holidays are mainly about. Enjoying and counting your blessings. Many times, we forget what we have and just whine about how we lack this and that when there are others who lack so much material things but have more depth than us.
Today is Ash Wednesday and marks the start of Lent. We did a Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday) yesterday by gorging ourselves on yummy CNY snacks and today is the day that I have to fast and abstain (looks forlornly at the rootbeer in the fridge). Ah well, Ash Wed is also the day to reflect on our past deeds and to truly make up for all wrong doings. 40 more days before Good Friday! On a more solemn note, I'm really glad that I've got friends, family, health, relative wealth, a pet and that I can live comfortably. I don't need to worry about the next meal nor whether I have clothes to wear. Yes, I'm damn lucky! ;)

Happy Chinese New Year!!!
Wishing one and all a Happy Chinese New Year!! It's the year of the golden pig *oink oink* and it's MY year! Haha...anyways, I watched "Protege" earlier this evening and I now have a soft spot for Daniel Wu. I'm not a fan yet but seriously, I would like to marry a man like him. Hahaha....that kind of guy who looks pretty cool, looks good in a suit and in casual, classy AND he speaks peeerrfect English. I wouldn't say that he's the "Whoa, he's so good looking" type of guy, but his looks grow on you *wink*. (*"*) Where's my Prince Charming??? Hahaha...no no, I'm not desperate....yet. Ahahahaha...on another note, here's me wishing all you babies: 新年快乐！万事如意！年年有余！

Lost?
I feel lost and aimless again. It's as if I'm treading this path because it's convenient. In some ways it is but it's an uphill task. I'm exhausted and I'm falling sick easily because of it. I can't slack and how much I don't know is overwhelming. I shouldn't be whining but I am. Perhaps it's because I've been so coddled. *SIGH* working life sucks.
