Chinese New Year

Two days to Chinese New Year Eve =)) I will be going home tomorrow night. Hhhm....I presume that the traffic will be horribly heavy at the custom. Yet, I am very excited. Hihi.... My parents will pick me up from Pudu Raya terminal at 2.30 am. We plan to go for dim sum breakfast in the morning. Then, we shall go and shop for more new year goodies at Giant. I wanna make chocolate fondue on the first day of CNY. Hahaha...yummy!!!!

New year cookies are everywhere in Singapore. Their prices ranging from SGD 12 to 40 per pack! Of course their quality also varies accordingly. ;) The new year 'must have' BBQ pork is even worst. SGD 48 per kg. Yet, business is still good. Customers have to line-up for hours to get it. Absolutely mad.

I guess food is something we cannot compromise though the economy is bad. CNY is only once a year after all. My favourite new year cookie is kuih bangkit. I should actually learn to make it. Alright, I will do that next year. Meanwhile, as for this year I made the following. Pretty proud of myself. They do look nice huh. I am gonna impress my mum. Hahahahhaa.....

Anyway, just wanna wish everyone Happy Chinese New Year. May we all stay healthy. May the economy down turn end soon. And finally, may I graduate soon and get a job. Darn, I am so bored with NUS. Gosh....I wanna leave this place so much!!!!! Okies, that will be my ultimate aim in the year of Ox.

P/S: My dad turns 72 this year. I wish he will be as healthy as ever and stay with me for many more CNY. (",)
