Recall back when i'm was still in my childhood, Chinese New Year is a very awaited festival. Thinking of those 'Ang Pao' will be given by my folks, relatives which is elder n' married. It's totally awesome, cause i can get more extra pocket money by simply greeting them with a secret password --> "GONG XI FA CAI". Then they will handover a 'Ang Pao'. Ha!!
Chinese New Year songs in Mandarin and Hokkien will be keep on playing repeatly whole day long.
A reunion dinner shall be held on the New Year Eve's night. Steamboat is a major dishes in the culture. With a hot, boiling broth using the charcoal (to maintain it's temperaturs) is located at the centre of a round table, accompanied with big prawn, fish balls, crab sticks, meat cubes, vegies, etc.. etc.. Yummy!!
During the night time, kids will come out to the alley and play the firecraker, Catherine wheel..
Well, those were the last time. The way of celebration was different now. Nowadays, the atmosphere of Chinese New Year was a bit slow. The economy was slow as well, with inflation, and less increasement in salary.
Chinese New Year is just around the corner, tomorrow will be the New Year Eve. This year i won't get any 'Ang Pao', instead i will give 'Ang Pao' to my relative's childrens. Ha!
Wishing all of u guys Happy Chinese New Year.. Of RAT!! (>""<)
