Chinese New Year
Again, like December, I have a love-hate relationship with.
Well.. I love meeting people I haven't met in like the last year, I love the FOOD, the yu-sheng, the cooking at home, making of poh-piah and not to mention the red packets..
BUT what makes it most annoying, are the questions. I'm fine with people asking me what I'm doing, or what I'm going to do after university, but questions like the "do you have a boyfriend?", "where's your boyfriend?" and when my answer is "no". I get a whole series of questions.. "why don't have?", "why don't want?","your expectations too high is it?", "university should have a lot of boys, why can't find?" and well.. You get my point. I may not have had these questions for long, but seriously, five years is more than enough.
It's just so hard to explain, or rather, is there an explanation in the first place? Like SERIOUSLY? Is it my fault that I haven't found the right person? Or i just don't seem to be able to find people whom I have chemistry/connection (or which ever word you wanna use) with? come on.. I believe we have all been through this right!
Anyway.. that aside, I had a relatively fun time, hanging out with my relatives and friends. and in a very interesting way, it's a new year that i'm gonna remember.. quite vividly. ;)

this reminds me of a joke:
your aunts and uncles love to ask, "when will it be your turn?" as people around you are getting attached or married. so the next time you attend a funeral, you can pop the same question back at them.
sure to get them off your back :D
Well.. you have to wait for that turn to say it back to them! That'll be far too long a time.
