CNY, fun but tiring..

As what the title says...CNY is fun...with all the visiting..eating biscuits and cakes...getting 'ang pao'..bla bla bla...all kids love CNY...but den...behind it all...its super hectic!

First there is the cleaning of the house.. its like spring cleaning...we have to change the sheets...curtains...couch covers..bla bla...den the washing..den the drying...den there is the swipping and mopping of the floors...MY GOODNESS! I could go 'kaput' just by thinking all of this...haih...

After all the cleaning...there is also the shopping...now ppl..dont get fooled by the word 'shopping'...I know many girls would go..OMG OMG OMG!!! SHOPPING~! WE LOVE SHOPPING~!....NOT! CNY shopping is totally different from the normal day to day shopping...as this is a world wide event....there will be MANY PPL going shopping at the same time...there's the snatching, the squeezing, the choosing and rushing just to get the best deals and goods...totally NOT my cup of tea...but den..wen mom says "Let's go..u're helping carrying the basket!"...wat can u do? T.T

Okay! Done with shopping..now the real deal starts! Cooking and baking!! I dont reli mind the baking part tho..coz I love baking cakes and cookies...Guess its the result of watching Antique Bakery and Yumeiro Pattisiere...LOL! I just love all those little shiny and colorful sweets! They are so cute and pretty that just by looking at it makes me happy! ^^ And u'd be even more happier wen ppl takes a taste of ur sweets they compliment it...hah.... I'm trying some new recipes for this year's CNY...some are from my mom and some from Yumeiro Pattisiere...xD

Anyways...even its so tiring and hectic..I still am looking foward to CNY! Looking foward to go out with my friends and go visiting...hehe..

Dead Blog Revived AGAIN! xD

Finally...I got the 'mood' to update my blog...lolx...been how long liao ah?? weeks? months? Luckily not years ah..hahaha...

Now about the new year....2009 is gone and 2010 is here! well...its been here for like about a month adi..haha....oh well..like i always say..better late than never...xP

2009 was really tough year for me...many unfortunate events keep on occurring....one after another...just like the movie..."A Series of Unfortunate Events" lolx....it was tough..but somehow I got through it...and I'm grateful for that...what I've learned from all these unfortunate events to always think positive no matter how bad it may seem....I know its not that easy but there is way to it I guess..haha....My method was to think SIMPLE! lolx...what I realize too from this was that many ppl like to make things complicated...then I thought why does ANYTHING have to be so complicated...we can make them simple if we wanted to...LOLx...and thats what I did..think simple! But I'm not simple minded la! lol..

So as for this new year..I hope it won't be as torturing as it was for me in 2009...Pray that it will much better not only for me but for my family, friends and everyone else! Soreja!

HAPPY BELATED NEW YEAR EVERYONE! xD
