CNY (part II)
After church we went to my uncle's house (mum's bro no.1) for lunch and we're gonna eat only vege (some dish with bean curd, mushrooms, dong fun, etc etc) cause my mum said its some family tradition for my mum's side to eat that dish for 'cho yat'. I got no other choice but to eat:D
But this year is different because usually we're gonna eat with our granduncles, but my grandfather and my granduncle no.4 rent out my great-grandfather's shoplot where all (mum,aunty and uncles grew up). So this year will be only with my grandfather's family. Speaking of my grandfather, he has 7 siblings including him 8 of them. According to my mum my great-grandfather name my grandfather's and granduncles's name to form a sentence. Which i would breifly introduce my family lah:D
- granduncle no.1 (名)
- my grandfather (来)
- granduncle no.2 (富)
- granduncle no.3(贵)
- grandaunty no.1
- granduncle no.4(全)
- grandaunty no.2
granduncle no.5(有)
aunty's not included
complicated huh?
very:D
Anyway congratulations lah!
i'll remember what you did this CNY:D
After collecting we head straight to my dad's side. To be specific, its not my dad side but my late grandmother's (dad's mum) side. We went to my no.2 grandaunty's house, where i'll meet all my distanced relative, most of them would be my dad's cousin's children (very complicated huh) After that we went to my no.6 grandaunty's house.
To be honest, i'm quite confuse about my dad's side except for the closer ones which is :
uncle no.1 (the one that never comes for reunion, NEVER>:(
aunty no.1
uncle no.2 (passed away)
aunty no.2
aunty no.3
uncle no.3
my dad
additional aunty (not blood related)
thats all i know about my dad's side:( maybe its because both my grandparents passed away when i was young, then i didn't know much about them. While my maternal grandparents are still alive and well:D thats why i know about almost everything about my mum's side
Thats all for Cho Yat lah, i guess

CNY (payday:)
Its CNY! Time to lay back, relax, and get paid, i mean recieve some blessings:D
Heres how my CNY goes
Day 0 ( i don't know how you call it but its the night where you have your reunion)
there's nothing much this day, since almost most of the people already went back to their kampung. While my kampung is in KL itself, and my family gonna be the host for the reunion dinner. Isn't that sad? I mean since young i don't have the experience of balik kampung, though you have to get through the jam, I think its kinda nice to have this kinda experience, I think lah.
Yea, i went for a movie with Jarrod, Charmaine, Arnold and Nick. Chick in Tropicana. And this is what we watch:
Here's a review:
When i first saw the trailer and i saw Donnie Yen, i thought its cool but then after watching it, it ain't cool:( The title for the movie is 14 Blades while the direct translation from the chinese title is brocade clad guard. And if you expect to see 14 blades in the movie, you'll not see it, they only give the intro of the blades and the purpose of it for only 5 minutes+. And throughout the whole movie you only see Donnie Yen using around 3-4 type of blades, so the storyline itself already defeat the title for the movie:( Though the certain fighthing scene is cool but comparing it with the other Donnie's movie (Ip Man) where i would use the word AWESOME. Also, there's certain scene where the villian (Kate Tsui), some hot assasin where her skill is to strip the outermost chloths when she's gonna get slash/stab/jab/pierce, cool right? Too bad most people can't slash her enough so she would be fighting around naked, at that time the opponet would just die from nose bleeding:D
(Overall rating: 4.5/10)
After the movie, i gotta rush home to help up setting up the tables and in the kitchen before the dinner starts. It was only 3 when my mum started to call me to rush back home, ugh, mothers:D We had STEMBOAT(again?) for reunion this time,started when all my aunt came, while waiting for my uncle. But this time, the dumplings my aunt made is heavenly! you could just float around the moment you have the first bite:D
And then came my uncle, he look frail when i first saw him. Since he came late and we almost finished eating, i went and took my shower again (thanks to all the work). After my shower, i went back to the dinning hall to see my uncle lying down on the floor with my dad and cousin comforting him. Apparently he had some heart problem and he forgot to bring he's medication along, i had to drive all around kepong with my mum to get the drung from a pharmacy. But then how can you even find one pharmacy with a pharmacist working when tomorrow is CNY. But Thank God, uncle is alright thought we couldn't get any medication for him. After all the hassle when everyone left, i gotta clean up the house:( Thats the thing you get when you're the only guy at home apart from dad.
more to come:)
