Chinese New Year's over!!

happy new year!! See how time flies, its already the 3rd day of the new niu (cow) year. Why is it time flies when I'm outside the office whereas in office, time seems to crawl....Crawling in my skin!!! *starts to sing Linkin Park's crawling*. Getting high nowadays for no reason and getting more daring nowadays. 

Cause today I just did a crazy thing in office where I get myself into a minor problem for being careless. Was caught by my HEAD for reading newspaper as she walk past me. DAMN! She was smiling at me as she walk past. I'm sure its not because she's happy. It's a smile which brings eerie feeling to me. It sounds like a small issue, but reading newspaper and getting caught by her is never a SMALL issue anymore. Not like its my 1st time getting caught, I was complained once for not greeting her when I was with my batch mate. Once again, I walked on a thin line again. Hope nothing happens to me tomorrow and this incident should be over. 

Anyway, now to happy events. I'm really very happy over this festive period eh. I'm very happy with my stuffs that I bought for Chinese New Year. I think I spent a bomb for the stuffs that I got. 

Here's the breakdown of what I bought. 
- 1 polo T-shirt bought using Robinsons' voucher. 
- 2 shirts bought from Giordano that's about $50 and a pair of jeans worth $40 odd. 
- 1 informal blazer which I bought during the mid of last year which is $69. 
- 1 pair of sneakers which is bought at 50% discount and cost me just $44.50 and its my favourite colour mixture of white & red!! Really hyped over this new pair of shoes!!
- Last but not least, my most expensive item that I got this year!! A new pair of spectacles which cost $240!! Expensive but its a really nice one. This is one style of specs that I was looking at for a long long time before I decided to go for it! I think its the best looking spectacles to be able to fit my big face loh. 

During this Lou Hei (the traditional local dish for CNY where raw fish is mixed with assorted vegetables), I was supposed to be saying auspicious phrases for myself & my family but instead, I was saying ORD oh!! I'm crazily anticipating the arrival of my ord date which is still about 6 months away. 

Anyway, apart from the clothes and Lou Hei part, I was excited over the chance to be able to drive for the 2 days of CNY. That means more driving experience which I'm super glad to have. I have always love to drive and I find it so relaxing and enjoyable to be able to drive. I was delighted when huat asked me to drive him back from Changi Airport when he's back from his training stint in New Zealand. But whether I can use the car depends on the father. 

However, the end of my most happy and enjoyable CNY is coming to an end. The amount of red packets $$ no longer matter that much to me. It's the happy feeling that counts. If only I have a special someone to share my joy with me..
