The Grinch who hates CNY

The older I get, the more I hate Chinese New Year wtf.

I’m thoroughly convinced that all this time I’ve been looking at things through rose-tinted (geddit geddit) glasses wtf.

The best things about Chinese New Year used to be a break from school, new clothes and angpaus.

But now that I’m grown, I don’t have a break besides the two measly public holidays, unless I take leave.

I don’t have time to go CNY shopping anymore *wails (and besides I shop all year round anyway so the novelty has worn off)

And angpaus somehow don’t seem as exciting anymore (either it’s because I’m working…or I’m reaching Nirvana WTF).  Although thankfully nobody has seemed reluctant to give me angpaus yet because I’m so old wtf.

And let’s not get into the massive jams back to Penang, the massive jams in Penang, and the massive irritation from waiting around and rushing around -_-

Btw speaking of waiting around and jams, think of picking up this deal from Milkadeal.

RM65 instead of RM100 for AAM Basic Card Membership [35% OFF]

You never know when you might need it.  If I had a car I’d totally buy it wtf.

Anyway random photos from the most hated time of the year.  Didn’t take many actually, just random ones from times when I remembered to.

My love – the person who picks a fight with a waiter over mosquitos in the restaurant WTF.

Me. It was very cold wtf.

Very nice photo of the Parents Ooi. God I’m talented.

DSC01555

Me with Mumsy and my Sum Yee.

Can you believe I didn’t buy any new clothes at all for Chinese New Year but still had a week’s worth of new clothes to wear WTF.  I have a bad habit of shopping and not wearing clothes -_-

Ok fine for you eagle eyes I wore this dress to take pics for an advertorial wtf but doesn’t count cos I wore it for ten minutes and the whole time I was sitting on my bed!  It’s the same as wearing a dress to see if it fits before you buy it *defensive

Fat Her’s new shoes frm Skechers hahahahaa.  Apparently good for his back or something.

He forgot to take out the Shape ups tags WTF.

DSC01561

Removing it in silent shame wtf.

DSC01563

Mumsy and Sum Yee hanging out by the pool.

By hanging out I mean hanging on to the side of the pool for dear life while feebly kicking their legs WTF.

Hahahahaha okla only for my mother.  Dunno why she got water phobia but still die die wanna change into swimsuit and go into the pool only to cling on to the edge and never move wtf.

DSC01569

Makeupless me.  Tired already from yelling at her to put her head under the water WTF.

(also sick sigh this is the 2nd Chinese New Year I’ve been sick 🙁  I already amateurly painted over my eyebags here with Meitu Xiuxiu and I still look like ten kinds of shit :()

(ok fine I had eyebrows on ten layers of sunblock on)

DSC01570

Popped blood vessels from learning how to juggle a football from Fayth 😀  Before I used to think I had 1% sports genes in my body but Fayth said I picked it up relatively quickly!  So maybe I have 2% sports genes (or maybe Fayth is being nice)

DSC01567

With Fat Her and Fat Her’s light-reactive glasses.

DSC01573

Then got lion dance!  This was the view from the pool where we were.

DSC01574

But what I liked better was looking at the enthralled faces of all the ang mo kids who lived in the building 😀

DSC01575

Lion dance performed by sweaty Indian guys WTF damn muhibbah lo seriously!  I think Penang is by far the most racially harmonious and peaceful place in Malaysia <3
