just minishorts.

Well. It's been a long time since I celebrated the new year in Mum's hometown. So I'll be off for several days. This is what I will be looking forward to:

1. Angpaus.
2. Seeing my granny. (Look, I see my granny a few times a year, so the angpaus are slightly more important here).
3. The gambling sessions. (My youngest uncle has bragged about turning the family home into a casino for all ages. Been summoned to bring more cash. Well. This should come in with the angpaus).
4. The BBQ night. (My second youngest uncle has bragged about turning the family basketball court—yes, there is a basketball court in my grandmum's new house—into a BBQ party area on Day 3. Can't wait!!!).
5. The daily pig-outs. (CNY is ALWAYS about food. Yum yum!)

The things I'm not looking forward to:

1. The almost-certain weight gain. (I'm preparing for damage control, nonetheless. Even if it most prolly won't work).
2. The 'for sure' question from my aunties and uncles, 'Eh when are you bringing your boyfriend home?' (Every year it's the same thing, whether or not I balik kampung)
3. That other question, 'When am I getting an ang pau from you?' (Well. Not until I get married. Which doesn't look probable anytime soon.)

But it's a trip I'm looking forward to. Gong Xi Fa Cai!!!
