CNY 2010

Hey, happy new year to all my Chinese friends!

First up, the big news: Josh and I got attached last week. Yaaaaaay.

Now, I'm gonna talk about my CNY (long) weekend. After reunion dinner, Josh and I went to Esplanade Bay to watch fireworks. (We didn't have reunion dinner together!) On Chu Yi, we had church service, went to Grandfather's and Big aunt's place. Then I visited Josh's grandma's place. His grandma so cute, when giving me the ang pao, she pointed to me and said to Josh, "Your ger-fend?'

Chu Er was really fuuuun. Watched Little Big Soldier with bros and cousins. In the evening, it was family gathering at my house. Whoa, my house is getting too small as the Hainanese family increase in size. (2 cousins are married with family, and they bring their children along!) The little kids kept bouncing on my bed. I should claim maintenance fee from the parents. ;p Food was awesome. Gosh, I should really learn to cook. Some cousins know about my boyfriend and asked why I didn't ask him over. Next time lah.

Chu San, I went to Jeremy's place and had a really good lunch. It was claypot rice, nian gao wtih sweet potato and yam, braised pork in bun, macaroni dessert. They had really good snacks too, like kueh bangkit, a sweet treat from Bakerzin. WOW. When I went to Josh's place, for the first time at 1.15pm, I expected everyone to have eaten but apparently not. So I had a mini second lunch. I met Josh's relatives and cousins. It could have been overwhelming but I felt comfortable. :)

For Valentine's, Josh got me a beautiful keychain and a book titled, "The Five Love Languages". As of now, I'm happy as a clam. I wanna thank God for the wonderful weekend.
