in CNY mood...

Time passed by in the twinkling of eyes...Chinese New year 2009 is coming soon.. The only holiday i have for this whole semester, and the only event i am waiting for so long.. haha..

Lion Dance, a nice symbol in CNY..

This year we are very lucky...because the holiday starts before CNY eve until the 7th day of CNY.. so happy.. The first and the last time in our 3 years university life...so happy and excited.. Furthermore, 1/2/09 is the public holiday for KL, so there will be an extra holiday replacement on coming monday, 2/2/09. Yeah, means our holiday will be extended to the 8th day of CNY.. Such a nice and great holiday..

Things needed for CNY: Ang Pau, Mandarin oranges, and "Nian Gao"..

Unlike previous years, our CNY holiday until 3rd or 4th day of CNY only..we still need to attend the lectures although we are stilll in CNY mood.. sometimes the worst thing is, we still have tests after CNY break.. Pity us, need to do revision during CNY..but what to do? That is the responsibility and duty as a student.. Anyway, to be honest, i think many of us will just keep enjoying CNY rather than just sit down and study for the test.. that is why sometimes we did badly in our first test.. Because all of us are in CNY mood instead of studying mood for the coming test..haha..

Chinese New Year, such a huge and important event especially for chinese.. A festival which can unite whole family through reunion dinner, etc. Families, relatives and friends will visit each other during CNY celebration..such a great chance to gather everyone.. chat and have fun with each other.. such a warm and wholesome atmosphere.. i really love such feel and at the same time, i appreciate too..

Receive Ang Pau from families and relatives.. sending their best wishes to us..

By now, for sure, everyone starts busy with CNY preparation.. still remember one week before i back to Kl, my mum keep asking me helped her to clean the house, cleaning dust, changing new curtains, etc. Although quite tiring, but I can felt the coming of CNY..

New year..all in New..busy in what? sure busy with shopping!! buying new clothes, new shoes.. promise everything in new!! all in red..red Lanterns hanging here and there, the playing of CNY songs at shopping complexes, CNY wishing cards and red Ang Pau selling everywhere..The moment you see that, it means CNY is really around the corner!!

Red lanterns hanging here and there.. Red colour, such a lucky colour and a symbol for CNY..

Countdown for CNY: 23 days to go... i know the time is still early, but still want to take a chance and wishing everyone: Happy Chinese New Year!! may all your dreams come true.. may this lucky year bring lots of happiness, health and wealth, joy and peace, love and care to all of us..

Happy Chinese New Year 2009 to everyone!!
