HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR !
Chinese New year is a traditional celebration for Chinese people often called Chinese Lunar New Year although it actually is lunisolar. It is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays. The festival begins on the first day of the first month in the traditional Chinese calendar and it ends with Lantern Festival which is on the 15th day. Chinese New Year's Eve, a day where Chinese families gather for their reunion dinner, is know as "Eve of the Passing Year". Therefore, the period around Chinese New Year is also the time of the largest human migration, when migrant workers in China, as well as overseas Chinese around the world travel home to have reunion dinners with their families on Chinese New Year's Eve.
My hometown is in a very small village at Pahang. My grandparents and cousins stay there which it took about 1.5hours to drive back hometown. I have 1weeks school holidays during Chinese new year and i spend most of my day at my hometown. I went back on Tuesday and I came back home on sunday. At my hometown, there's no There's no McD,PizzaHut,Sushi and other fast food besides KFC. Besides that, there only have SUPERMARKETS but not shopping mall. The market is worse than Giant, I was wondering where and how they get to buy their clothes? Are they from some morning market on the streets ( Pasar Pagi) ? Owhyea, there also don't have NIGHT MARKET(Pasar malam). Can you imagine that how do I survive for these 5DAYS at my hometown ?
I went back to my hometown before the Chinese New Year Eve, as usual that my family is always the first one who reached to visit my grandparents and my others relatives is always come back the next day after the day we reach. My 8years old little cousin brother live with my grandparents and I can see the how happy he is when we came back to visit him. He's a adorable and naughty cousin but the way he think is so mature that I got really surprised. I remember last year I went back to my hometown and when packed my belongings to go back home. I saw he was lying on the bed crying, when he saw I came to look for him to say goodbye. He quickly whipped his tears and act like he's sleeping. He was only 7 but he can act like a big man that who don't want people to see has tears on his face. I got really shocked at that moment :/
The day next, 2nd of February was Chinese New Year Eve. All my relative came back to have reunion dinner with this big family. I feel so lucky that I was born in this family, because I have the greatest chefs in Asia that cook dinner for us ! They were my grandma, my mother and my aunties. It's mouth watering when you look at the food but it's way delicious when you taste it. No joke ! There's quite a number of people in my relative so we have separate 2tables to have our reunion dinner. The big table was for the adults from 21 until 75years old and another table was for the kids from the age of 7 until 20 years old. I'M UNDER KIDS CATEGORY, WOOHOO. Although the table is really small but it can fitted about 7-8 person for that kids table. This rules is set since I was 8years old, dinner with all my younger cousins at the small little table until now ! It's a really memorable memory with my relatives.

3rd of February.
It's midnight at 2pm at 3rd of February, the downtown is full of fireworks and also hear PILIPALA everywhere and it means that they're playing firecracker to celebrate this Chinese New Year. So do my family ! GUESS WHAT, ALLMYCOUSINBROTHERSISSOUSELSS. I WAS THE ONE WHO HOLDING THE FIRECRACKER TO LET IT BURN ! SO SCARY WHEN IT STARTED TO BURN AND SOUNDS SO LOUD AND IT FREAK ME OUT. It's quite fun lah, there's no next time for me to use hold the long wood to let that firecracker burn. NO MORE. Early in the morning this day, you can all the people were wearing clothes that is red in colour because red means that some lucky and good stuff to welcome this Chinese new year. The best part to celebrate Chinese New Year is receiving ANGPAU. After that, gamble timeee ! I was sitting at the chair all the time to play mahjiong with my cousins since there's no connection and there's nothing to do besides mahjiong and Tv.
He's the 'man' that I mentioned (:
No ones play with my youngest cousin because my others cousins had grown up and they rather spend their time on playing mahjiong than playing candles and "pop-pop" with him. So, I decided to play candles with him and he was so happy to enjoy playing with the candles. I love to blow off the fire when he just light it up the candles and makes him angry. Hehe, but It ends up that I had burned my finger while playing with the candles -.-
4th - 6th Of February.
Tv, Eat, Mahjiong, Sleep.
That's what I do for the rest of my days at my hometown. OWH, I FOUND some photos that when I was young. Man, I look like a guy (white shirt and green pants ) and my sister (purple shirt blue pants) is cuter than me. She's SAWSUETLI, LOL. Unbelievable ? :P
Idk I used to be SO CUTE when I was young =P
Came back home on Sunday at 8am !
