Happy Chinese New Year 2012!!! Rawr!!!

Hello everyone! Year of the water dragon y'all!!! How was the first few days of Chinese New Year everyone???

Must be great with the the firecrackers, ang paos, reunion dinner, cookies, yee sang and of course the gambling!!! as they all say in twitter/FB updates...HUAT AR!!!

Here are some pics of my cousins and I on the 1st day of CNY at my Grandparent's house :-)

Boys & Girls

Girls! Pageant style, excluding my newly married cousin Samantha who's working in Melbourne...the smallest girl in white cheongsam in actually my niece :-P old liao lorrr!!!

How was it for me???......wells.....one word.....

STRESSFUL.COM!!!!!!!!

Every year I look forward to collecting ang paos, visiting my friend's home, yum cha and catching up with friends who are back from overseas and also the cookies!!!

But not this year...I've never felt so stressful in my life!!!

I know all my relatives MEANT WELL and are just BEING NICE creating conversations with me.......

But somehow and sometimes....Ignorance is indeed a BLISS!

U finished your studies already ar? 

What you planning to do now? 

Going back overseas?

Found Job edi or not? 

Got boyfriend or not? 

So you still singing/dancing/acting/doing events ar?

Why so fat edi?

Wah you lost weight hor? (The fact is I gained weight =__=")

I next year don't want to give you ang pao edi ya...I expect you to be married by then....(how is it even possible unless I get myself shot gun=__="...but impossible as my mum did not raise me that way :-D)

Who and who is getting married....

Who and who are having babies.... 

 I don't like being questioned and interrogated in what I do!!! I does effect me emotionally....

Don't get me wrong...I'm not talking about the marriage part, after traveling the world and seeing sooo many marriages break down( and cheating men)....I am NO WAY rushing to get married...

I'd RATHER get married later and have a marriage that last forever and be financially capable to provide for my children and wise/mature enough to make decisions as a wife/mother....The fact is, love alone CANNOT put food on the table....

Future more, I'm reasonably good-looking, capable and smart...scared nobody want meh? CHOI!!! 

What I AM talking about here is the WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO? part......

Frankly, I've always been someone who's had all these ideas and ambitions for the future and for the past 1-2 years.......I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AT ALL!!!!!!!!

And I am sooo stressed out!!!

Unfortunately, the answer that I really want to give will definitely bewilder my relatives....

"Me ah??? Doing nothing now lor....Lady of Leisure....I also dunno what to do right now....See first la...." 

I really NEED to get my feng shui/pat chi chart/astrology check.....I am a confused 25-year-old (Chinese age) who in facing a QUARTER AGE CRISIS right now!!! 

Ask me "What I want to do in my life?" 6 months later ok? Kaythanksbai!

Oh yah...I also stressful coz my younger cousins are getting married and giving me ang pao next year...very embarrasing okay!!! T__T eventhough I love taking people's money collecting ang paos XD....
