Makumbo!!
This post is long overdue...
First thing first, the title have nothing to do with the posting, this posting has something to do with CNY...
It was Chinese New Year eve, a few days before, I was informed by mum that we will stay put in Johor, and we won't be going anywhere, not even Genting (I spent most of my CNYs at Genting since young...). The usual arrangement would be spending the eve of CNY at Genting and then go to Penang on the first day of CNY.
Anyway, it's a new one on me, spending CNY at home, on the eve of CNY, mum cooked a slightly more sumptuous lunch, and then after lunch, dad suggested that... lets go to Genting for CNY...
?!?!
To make a long story short, mum hustled to get everything ready, and Dad prepared the car for the journey, in less than 2 hour, everything was ready, and off we go to Genting!!
The journey there was a smooth one, I did the driving and we had our reunion dinner at Gohtong Jaya, yes, four of us. We are a typical nucleus family. We checked in at Resort Hotel and three of them went to the casino to try out their luck after that, and I was drinking alone...
So, what else is new......?
Nothing actually, we wanted to spend the CNY at Johor to avoid the holiday traffic and the long distance driving, there is a new term coined for this, the chinese call it 'avoiding the year'. Well, I thought I am just that until we went to Genting...
That is not such a bad thing, we all should make the effort to go somewhere, meet up with our relatives, mingle with the crowd... afterall, it's CNY!! This is actually a blessing in disguise, because we still have the resource and means to celebrate CNY, there are a lot of ppl out there who are unable to do so, heck, we should be grateful we are able to hassle for CNY...
Anyway,
I have been wanting write this posting for sometime already, I procrastinated until the 7th dy of CNY...
Happy New Year!! >:D<
