Alas, Chinese New Year holiday is over and I had been lazy with not write on my blogs for days. Oh well, gonna write what happened for the past few days which is the Chinese New Year holiday.
On last wednesday, it was Chinese New Year's Eve and that is when everyone have their reunion dinner. Well mine is reunion lunch as always and poor me had to work till 2pm that day. Worse still, I had an examination on that day. Lucky I studied hard and managed to complete my 3 hours paper in 1 and 1/2 hour time. Hehehehe. After that I rush home to have my reunion lunch. Usually we will have steamboat but this year my
mum decided to have a normal
lunch. We had fish, abalone and broccoli, roast duck, fish maw soup and 'wu xiang'. Sigh, forgot to take picture if not I can post here. At night, I went over my in laws place with my wife and that's about it for our CNY eve.
On first day of CNY, it's a pretty lazing day where we spent most of our time at home. My small aunt and uncle dropped over but beside that it was a pretty uneventful day. During night time, i decided to catch a movie with my wife. Our initial choice was to watch All's Well End Well 2011 or I Love HK but both of them are full already. We settled for Mr. & Mrs. Incredible. It was quite a light hearted and hilarious show. Quite a good entertainment if you ask me. Oh yah, on top of that, we found out a new privilege for Citibank card holders at TGV. First you get, buy 1 free 1 movie tickets promotion on weekends and you get to buy movie tickets at RM10 on weekdays compared to the normal price RM14. Best of all, there is a priority queue for Citibank card members!
On second day, I drove my wife to visit her grandmother's place in Kluang. Her place was packed with children as her grandchildren were back to visit her for CNY. We stayed for a night there after a sumptuous dinner at a local restaurant. That night however, I stayed up till quite late playing cards with the kids. I was quite lucky and won a bit but i purposely lose back the winnings as i don't feel good about winning the kid's Angpow money.
On the third day, we hung out at my wife's grandma place to rest and also attended a buffet dinner at her uncle's place before heading back to JB at night. We reached JB around 10pm and we were both tired out.
Fourth day was the last day of the holidays. We visited my aunt who is bedridden for 2 years plus as she broke her leg and also her husband who is having senile dementia. Quite a pity to see them so but at least their children are quite filial and takes care of them and my aunt seem
quite optimistic as her leg is recovering. Night time we wanted to catch a movie again but could not get the tickets.
Finally it's today. First day back at work and first day on the floor. It's quite a busy day and I'm pretty lost as both my direct superiors are on annual leaves. At least a fellow team manager Celine taught me some stuffs. Also got to know my team members better. I think they all have the potential to do well. Let's hope I do well in my job and lead each of them to be successful.
