Snapped back to reality

It has often been said that the only thing bad about going on a holiday is coming back from one. What with the Chinese New Year celebrations having just passed, well the bulk of it anyways, it's now time for reality to kick in again. Rev. Johnny made everyone say "Xing Nien Kuai Ler" in church on Sunday morning. Personally, I prefer to say "Gong Xi Fa Cai". No particular reasons whatsoever, I just think it's easier to say.

Contrary to common belief, CNY celebrations do not last 15 days. They last for as long as you don't have to work. =P


This year's CNY for me was pretty interesting to say the least. Take for instance, my parents driving to Sabah to spend 2 weeks with my relatives there, leaving me alone at home with 6 dogs. Now that I think about it, it was rather stupid seeing as how I barely feed myself let alone 6 dogs. Haha... I was all too happy to oblige when Nikki's mum asked me for a dog. I was sad to hear of the demise of Nikki's grandma but as her family would undoubtedly tell you, it was harder to mourn than to celebrate the passing of one that had such a fulfilling life.


With Nikki's family back for CNY and also for the "celebration", I got a chance to meet Nikki's older sister and also her cousin Geneive which was a wee bit weird for me because I have an older sister named Genevieve whom I love to hate. Sibling rivalry and all that... Anyways, Nikki's older sister wasn't what I pictured her to be. For some reason unbeknownst to me, I just couldn't help but picture her to look like this...
Hi Dee Dee... I assume that's how you spell your name. Haha...

Anyways, I gather that I'd have had a nicer holiday if I didn't fall sick on CNY eve on account of someone. Haha... Don't feel bad lah bro. I mean, how could you know that I'd be allergic to Hugo Boss perfume?

Well, all good things must come to an end. It's now time to snap back to reality and I'm already hating the hustle and bustle of work again. Oh well........................
