Well, so I guess that Chinese New Year was fun after all. Being the youngest in the family does have its perks of well, being youngest in the family I guess. Though celebrations were rather moderate this year, I still felt the feeling of having family around, catching up with each other and just sharing the festive spirit. Most of the fun of course, came from when we recounted the days THEY spent bullying me and making fun of me at my grandparent's compound. *pouts*
Weirdly enough, I never felt close to my cousins now than when I was younger. I guess its cool that as we grow, them growing up wayy earlier than myself, we can sort of relate to each other more? I don't know. I have a very cool family. 'Nuff said.
Managed to catch my brother's girlfriend's family on the second day, and I say, I did have a ball of a time there. Playing friendly Blackjack, with cash of course, and having my fortunes fluctuating from winning about $6 in a single round, to losing $8 in a single hand. Had real fun, and I guess I proved that I had the balls to take risks! :D
Something which I have had increased practice with.
Of course after that, was a meeting with Vic, Kat and Len at the airport for something that I totally did not catch wind of till wayy wayy later. But, I had a reeeeaalllyyyy great time just goofing around with them, and of course, cam-whoring!
Pictures up on facebook soon I hope. (Hint, Lennart.)
Life is great. I just want it to be better. Is that wrong? I like better-ing myself. Each step of my life, can only be better than the previous one. That's how one gets to the top.
All the salt in the world, couldn't melt this ice.
