Gong Xi Fa Chai!

Yeah, happy prosperous new year :D . I have never really thought so much of the significance of the wish until today! New year is very important not only for resolution, but it is a new expectation, a new hope and a better future.

That is my wish for this year. Last year was great! But, this year would definitely be better! :D

My family do not really care about tradition, yeah thanx to my dad who dislike inconvenience. So, I grew up not knowing its importance. But as I journeyed my life, I begin to unfold its significance, the family gathering, the giving of ang bou and many others. Of course we need to see it in modern light. Today, I spent the new year among my friends. Yeah, I am not going back. I could not in fact. But, I really treasured what I have. The friends I have and the opportunity to know them and spend time with them. There will be time when I have my own family, there would be hardly any time for friends, wouldn’t it? :)
