New Year arrival!

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!! (>""<)

Traffic Jam Again During Festival Celebration

I had an appointment with my pregnancy doctor yesterday at 4.30pm. Well, i went to it earlier than the appointted time as i realized that the doctor was just caming back his vacation, and it would be attended by a lot of patients. It was my turn when the time showed 6 o'clock. I have been waiting at there for three hours for the check up. It took about 15 minutes to end up for the check up.

I took Jelutong Express to drive home yesterday after my checking. What a big surprised when i was on my way to back home as there are a lot of cars on road, and caused the traffic jam nearby jetty. Without any delay,i changed my mind to drive home using jelutong express and all along the way of Jelutong Express, there are full of cars and trucks too. I was so regret to take this path for being caught in the traffic.

When i reached butterworth, the day was dark as it was already 7.30pm. I dropped by my husband's shop to pay a visit to him and complained about traffic condition to him. I am really fed up in heavy traffic esspecially during festival celebration season.
