CNY
What is the difference between Chinese New Year and the rest of the days of the year?Ans: you can get money without asking from anyone..haha
In the past when i am still a little child,i always look forward to CNY because my parents will bring me all the way from msia to spore to visit relatives...i can wear new clothes,new shoes,carry new bag,get angbao..CNY that nite i will be super excited till i cant sleep,CNY that day i will wake up super early.This is the only time i wake up early without complains.
But as years go by,i wasnt as enthu as before.To me,it's just a few days off ,visiting relatives and questions like:
'ting ting,currently which year are you?how is your studies?how did you perform for your exam?what do you intend to do in the future?'
my relatives side,none of them are around the same age as me,cousins are either too small or too big,there isnt any topic for me to talk about and i will be extremely quiet during this time..i will just sit down at the living room,watching tv and dozed off at times.
2 years ago,i fetched my grandma to spore to stay over during CNY period.She has difficulties in walking and i brought her around to relatives house by taxi using all my angbaos money .surprising i wasnt heartache at all to take taxi around for that few days from one place to another.i treat her to macDonald and she had her first try on fastfoodat the age of 86,i couldnt forget how happy she was .not long after CNY,i was admitted to hospital for few days and time with her was cut down.after i recovered,i brought her back to msia.she cant stay for long because she wasnt spore PR.
At that time,i told myself,every year i will bring her to spore especially CNY.But never did i expect she suffered from stroke a few months later and there was a time she's almost on the verge of death and that's the first time i ever faced such situation.I thought i am going to lose her forever.i can still remember that time,no matter how i held back to my tears and told myself to be strong,i still cried when she held my hands...
It was lucky that she manage to survive...and till now.
since then,every year,during one of the CNY day,i will go back and visit her.
Mum went to see her today and the people in charge told mum she cried yesterday because she thought no one is visiting her for CNY...
anyway..i hope this year de new year..everything will turn out fine.
