Happy New Year 2009

I cannot believe that one year just passed like that. Stepping into my granny's house today seem so familiar, like i just went there the day before. Everything is the same, just that everyone seema to have aged. This makes me feel a little guilty as well cause i only see my grandma like once a year or on special occasions such as her 80th birthday. Guess this is a timely reminder that i should visit her more often. Anyway this year's start of visitation was at my own place cause my ah gong is staying here. Good thing because i can get to sleep longer and don't have to wake up so early in the morning to prepare. Managed to sleep till 11am on a CNY morning, feels so good.

The gush of The Little Nyonya has penetrated into our family with the emergence of two little nyonya's, namely my sis and evangeline. As for me, i was a big red fire cracker haha.


The nyonya lady and me


Here is the small nyonya

The ladies of the Teo family

Kungfu boy and Miko

Our family; that is inclusive of Miko, but she didn't look!

At about 2 plus, everyone left my place and we headed off to my maternal grandma's side. This year feels a little different for me, I don't know why but somehow i feel that its a more friendly year. Talked to my cousins and aunties, but i mingled around the most with sweetheart joshua.

Yes...this is the sweetheart i am talking about

<3

Other than that, we had 2 dogs in the house this year. The little tiny silky terrier i saw last year has grew bigger, and was constantly being chased around by my other uncle's horny jack russell haha. Poor little thing was traumatised, and kept running to my cousin for protection. She did a little fashion show for us too...

So how do i look in denim?

Or is my burberry like shirt better?

I think i still look best in pink la

I stayed at my granny's place pretty long this year, all the way till 6 something before i went home for the second round of reunion. My mother prepared mee siam and popiah but i didn't have a great appetite today. Also i think the pounds and kgs are back to haunt me again so i'd have to watch it haha. Overall, this year was rather fullfilling for me. I didn't feel as bored as past years, and it was fun talking to my cousins whom i seldom have conversations with. And having lovely kids around me also makes CNY such a happy event. Tomorro will be at my auntie's place, hopefully it would be another round of fun catching up too, hope you guys enjoyed your first day of CNY too.
