Happy Chinese New Year

Happy Chinese New Year !~~ (or belated CNY...hahaha..) never mind, only the 4th day so it's still valid. The year of the boar *oink oink* is said to be a "wealthier" year for all (praying hard)...but it'll be a tough year for those aged 30. It's always never a good year for ppl who turns 30 cos the chinese zodiacs clashes with each other. (3 more years for me~)

The proud grandma bought loads and loads of new clothes for the grandkids. *Wah~ can open a fashion boutique by now* The lil monkey's clothes were mostly imported from Hong Kong (that explains the fashion) and the twins had all the twin matching clothes, making them both look identical and cuter as always. As for myself, didn't buy a single thing. First of all, it wouldn't even be worth it as I've still a long way to slim myself down and all. Few months, maybe years (hopefully before I reach 30-lah)

Anyway, CNY this year got even more quiet than last year. Not much fireworks, not much of festive mood either. Just more traffic jam, especially at those new and happening areas. In penang, its definately the new shopping complex - Queensbay Mall. The place is big and long, with lots more familiar shops like the ones in KL, plus additional local or non-branded shops.

Well, the only highlight this festive season is the twins presence I guess. When ppl came over to visit, their attention was all channeled to those two and the lil monkey. I've not been celebrating CNY at home in penang for some years, so it's also their first time seeing her. Hahaha...at least it's not a too one-sided affair thingy and no jealousy. She had some new "friends" or so called "cousins" around her age to play with. Although the generation is a bit different. hahaha...the young "aunts" and "uncles" which my kids will have to call them. No need to confuse them with these yet for now..hahahaha...too young to understand anyway.

Triple Celebration

15th Feb 2007 - A day worth celebrating indeed. It was a day after Valentines', my bro's b'day, and my twins full moon / month. The whole family gathered, we celebrated, everyone was happy...hahaha... short and simple. The happiest person of all was (who else?) the lil monkey cos she gets to blow out all the candles (on my bro's b'day cake and the twins cake) hahhaah...

The cakes were ok - american cheese & the other was like fruit cake with raisins and stuffs...very sweet...Actually, my mom just needs an excuse to order a cake to try. There's still a whole lot more, so she'll just have to wait for another chance.

For valentines', I got a new mobile. (HA!). Wondering what the model is? ---> Z610i black colour...pretty cool phone. The loudspeaker is very useful...loud and clear =). Bought an additional protection transparent cover for it and a cute pouch. *photos to be taken and posted up later when I'm free*

As for the twins, they already had a head start on their ang pow collections. Considered their early savings for their future education...kekkeke...

B'day celebrations will never be the same again from next year onwards that's for sure. Look forward to it !~~
