1st Day of the Year of Dragon

恭喜发财.  Wishing everyone a very Happy and Prosperous Chinese New Year! Great health, luck, happiness and of course good food throughout the Year of Water Dragon!

Phototaking at home. Think there's something wrong with my camera. The photos are either blur or I will look very fat in the photos.

Visited Granny and Grandpa at temple. Something new this year and I believed we will be coming here on the 1st day of CNY every year.

Bf at Redhill market. Luckily the stalls are opened

Queuing for the vegetarian food. Kennie will be semi vegetarian on the 1st day of CNY every year. Semi cause it's only in the morning. This year, I joined her to be semi vegetarian.

Went to visit Mum. Mum cooked Yong Tau Foo Kway Teow for us.

& visited Aunty and Uncle.

& dinner at Burger King Suntec.

Wanted to go River Ang Pao but it's raining. Dampen our mood. Btw, there's a grandmother myth that if it rained on Winter Solstice Festival (冬至). it will be sunny on the 1st fay of CNY. It rained on 冬至 but it rained today as well.Haha.

Chinese New Year Eve

Hungry Hungry. No bf us for us cause the coffee shop opposite our house was closed today. Bought a smelly waffle at 7-11 and we requested for a refund.  Luckily lunch is just an hr away.

Reunion dinner at Mum's place. Mum is not cooking and we didnt dine out this year. It's very ex during this period and the restaurants will be very pack and will affect the quality of the food. Mum ordered from Neo Garden Caterer. Not very nice. Mum's cooking is still the best.

Had a very bad headache and I went back home to sleep. Kennie and Kids helped to do the final spring cleaning. Woke up. Head still pain but we still went to JP to buy Mandarin Orange as we have forgotten to buy. NTUC was not open as well so we rushed down to Chinatown. A wrong move cause that place is damn pack. Make my head even more pain. Squeeze in to buy the Mandarin Oranges and exited.

Went back home to  Shou Sui( 守岁) . Shou Sui is when members of the family stay awake to welcome the new year. According to Chinese beliefs, children who Shou Sui will increase the longevity of the parents.

The Mandarin Oranges that we bought from Chinatown

Reunion Dinner with Kennie and Bao Beis

Stayed at home to do the final spring cleaning. Felt a sense of achievement to see my house neat and tidy. But it looked old already. Maybe shd save up for repainting job soon.

Then went to Chinatown to walk the Chinese New Year Festive Bazaar. Super heavy downpour with very long lightning that looks like it has struck the ground. Hope no one is hurt. The Bazaar is not very crowded since it's raining but seriously, there's nothing much too see or buy there. Almost every stalls sell the same thing. 

Our own family's Reunion dinner at Togi Korean Restaurant at Mosque Street. 1 of the better Korean Food that I dare to say.  Finding excuse to eat in restaurant. hehe. .

We even spotted a super duper long and beautiful rainbow in the sky. Many people spotted it too as the rainbow photos floods FB.
