I'm Back!!!~ Wednesday, February 01, 2006
got back from ipoh today... arrived home around 3pm... was stucked in traffic for a short period however at most times it went smoothly... it rained awhile on the way... drizzle... heavy... dry... sunny... cloudy... rainy again...
back to ipoh was great... seeing my grandparents... cousins... uncles... aunties... and extended cousins... angpau collection was great... eating like nobody's business... stomach's never hungry... mahjongs... blackjacks... play station... etc etc etc...
it has always been great to spend chinese new year in ipoh... where all family members gathered and eat ur heart out, enjoyed and relaxed!!!~ 'lou sang' was the best... this year... we've got abalone 'lou sang' which was err... i don't know doesn't really taste much different after u mixed it all up... and of course how much can u taste when it was cut into strips!!!~ but again... it was different than all the previous years with only salmon fish or 'sang yu' (some kinda fish)... i had abalone and some "lobster+corn" balls (which tasted pretty sucky) for steamboat too during the reunion dinner at ss4... alot of new dishes has been added into this year's menu ^_^
last night's mahjong... i won RM4.70!!!~~ yippeeeee... once i won... i win alot of times consecutively... without my 5th aunt there as one of the kaki... tiger and rat doesn't go well this year!!!~ hehe or so it seems in the game of mahjong!!!~ once she left the game... i won 3 times consecutively!!!~ 'keng' or not i??? haha... ohh... and probably was the luck given by a cockroach too... cos i was winning... then out of a sudden a bug landed on my leg... i screamed and shoved it away only to find out it was a humongous cockroach... luck lah... i won lots after that... not immediately but later afterawhile... the best winnings was RM2.10... each player gave me 70cents each... if only per card wasn't 10cents i could've won much more... but then again... play small lose small... and besides... i'm playing with my cousins who are all stingy poker so what can i do? hehe... nevertheless it was the most 'gan cheung' game ever so far with my cousins... cos it has been 2-3 years since we last gamble during chinese new years =)
i miss lion dances and fire crackers... have not came across one now... lion dance might have hope in these few more days... but fire crackers... i doubt it... cos' it was let mostly on the first day of chinese new year... and since it was banned... even harder to find one...
