Chinese New Year was so busy. Haha. Now then i've got the time to blog. Haha. Now i'll reveal what i've done for the past few days...But before that, read the note...

*NOTE*
To prevent confusions, i have to write this.
Father side cosuins(some)-Chan Jing, Chan hong and Chan shun are my father side cousins. Together with me and my brother(Chan di). We are the only people with 2 word in the name in our family. Haha. By the way, we are all guys.
Mother side cousins-Zhixuan,zhiying are the daughters of my 1st uncle. Daryl, dillian and dawn are the children of my 2nd uncle.

Saturday... CNY Eve...
Woke up early in the morning and went to my 2nd uncle's house to pay respect to my grandparents. Then had breakfast and lunch there. I played a little XboX and computer there before going home to change at around 4pm. At 6pm, my family headed to the seafood restaurant to have our reunion dinner. My whole father-side family was there. That included 1st uncle to 7th aunt with their family. Since my grandmother past away, we had been eating reunion dinner outside. Haiz. Missed those times when we surround a table and eat steamboat. All the abalones, scallops and sharkfins can't compared to the home cooked dishes and the steaboat. Haha. Went home after dinner and watch some celebration shows. I was searching for a new blogskin but nothing was nice. Haha. So i asked Chan Hong to make me one. But he say he don't know how to make.

Sunday... 1st Day of CNY...
Woke up later then the past few years. From the time i'm born, my family had been visiting temples early in the morning on every 1st day of new year. What i meant was VERY VERY VERY early. Two years ago we went at 2am. Last year, it was 3 or 4am. This year was 10am because my father said that the first six hours of the day weren't good. So we headed to all four of the temples that we visit every year. I wasn't very happy this year because waking up at 10 was not very pleasing. I prefer to wake up earlier. At least there will not be many people at the temples. When we finished, it's around 1pm.

We went to my 2nd uncle's house to eat. My 2nd auntie had cooked some vegetarian dishes. They were nice. Haha. Later, chan hong told me that he could only modify blogskins. So i gave him a blogskin to modify. After that my family went to my mother side grandparent's house. When we went there, some of my mother side relatives were there, other then my mother's elder brothers and their family. We sat there can chatted for awhile. And the TV was showing wrestling. My grandpa loves wrestling. Haha. Soon, we went back to My 2nd uncle's house to have dinner again. This time, my 2nd uncle and his family was already home and Chan hong and his family was not there already. When i was eating, there was a commotion outside the house. I quickly finished my dinner and looked. Haha! A lorry was not braked properly and it slided down its parking lot and knock into the car facing it. The car and lorry were both empty.

I ran up and spread the news to Chan Shun, Chan Jing(both my 2nd uncle's son) and my bro. My bro wasn't real intrested. He continued to play games. Chan Jing and chan hong quickly came out of the house and look. Chan shun took his dad's hp and took some photos. Suddenly, all the adults were discussing what the carplate number was. They wanted to nuy 4D. In the end, 'Super Reporter' Chan Shun was sent to scout them. He went down with his mum and checked out their numbers and took some close up photos. When we were living, i reminded him to film down whatever happen when the car owners came.

We went to my mother side's 1st uncle place to visit them. But all we wanted to do was gamble! When we reached there, the gambling had already started. haha. We played poker, blackjack and dai tee. I lost alot! Sadded. Haha. But it was fun. Even my grandma joined in. Haha.

Monday... 2nd Day of CNY...
First stop today was my granduncle's house. My mother side cousins were there too. We started gambling like yeaterday. Haha. Blackjack! We gambled all the way to my mum's cousin's house(that's what i hate about big families. So many "'s". Haha). Lunch was served there. Love the curry chicken and the cereal prawns. Haha. Later, my dad and mum sent my grandparents back home. We went to my 1st uncle's house to wait for my dad to fetch us to my father side 1st uncle's house. We did something really lame. Tried to find our house on Google Earth. Haha! We didn't managed that but Google Earth was really neat! Haha.

Later we went to my 1st uncle's house and saw chan shun. He told me that he forgot to film it down but it turned out that the owner of the car was a teacher from his school! Didn't really eat much there. Just a small piece of pizza and some seaweed chicken. My elderst cousin's daughter was learing the piano so there's a keyboard at his house. i tried to play the things daniel taught me. The starting of anjing. But i only know like that. So lousy. Haha. Chan Hong and i played tonghua on the piano by refering to a score. X)

And...It's gambling time again!! This year, the 'regular customer' chanjing, did not play. Dunno why. It's blackjack again. I won a little bit. Haha. At 6.30, we left. Because... It's time for FIREWORKS and FIRECRACKERS in malaysia. Haha. My family went to meet up with some friends and entered malaysia. We went to an auntie's house to play them. There's a rather wide field there for us to play. There's more types this year. Some were like rockets, flew up to the sky and crack or explode. Some shot a ball of light to the sky and explode. So were needed to be thrown farway when lighted up cos it'll blow! haha. My bro lighted one which fires fireworks like missles. Haha. there's only one of those. But i lighted one big rocket liked thingy. It shot to the sky and exploded like a professional fireworks. That's my favourite. Haha. Some were like magic wands, shooting out fireworks at the tip of a stick.

There's also firecrackers. We secretly planned a surprise for my dad. When the second firecracker was lighted at 12am, We'll sing the birthday song to my dad. It's his birthday! Happy birthday!! Haha. So the plan went on smoothly and he was surprised indeed Haha. We were on our way home at 4 and reached home at 5.15am because there was a jam at the customs. *Yawn* Sleepy sleepy...............

Tuesday... 3rd Day of CNY... Today...
I woke up at 3pm and my brother and my bro and i were supposed to meet my mother side cousins at 4pm to watch I Not Stupid Too at Plaza Singapura. My dad drove us there to prevent us from being late. But we were already late. They were all there already. Haha. Daryl and i were wearing the same shirt! Haha! Damn! How i hate Plaza Singapura, especially on holidays. All i see was boys acting cool and showing off to their female friends. How lame is that?! I bought popcorns, my bro bought hotdog, zhiying and dillian bought nachos sets. Then we went in and watch the movie. By the way, dawn didn't go.

The movie was really nice. Must really check it out. It's really touching and funny. Haha. i don't wanna be a wet blanket so i won't talk about the contents. Haha. Whoa! Shawn lee. He grow up alot sia. Three years ago, he was still a kid in Home Run. Now? He is taller then Joshua ang! His voice change alot too. Voice break already. The work of puberty. Haha. And the theme song was really nice. But i didn't know that Hong Junyang sang it!! Whoa.. Don't sounds like him. The song had some jay chou flavour in it. haha.

After the movie, we went to have a bite at MOS burger. After that, we were intending to go to Daryl's house because my house was too boring. My dad's colleges were coming over. But my 1st uncle's car can only squeeze 5 to 6 people. So we let the lower secondary people(Dillian and zhiying) go with the car while we took the MRT. From theplaza singapura there take to serangoon. While walking to daryl's house, we saw the car! The three boys walking faster attempt to run fater then them. In the end, Daryl reached first, winning the people in the car. Haha. We were rather cruel, leaving zhixuan, a girl, walking alone behind. Haha.

When we reached there, guess what we did. Yeah. That's right! GAMBLING!! Haha. Blackjack again. I won quite alot. At 9, we went home. 1st uncle drive us home. Haha. That's all lar. haha. Bbye. Happy new year!
