Lunar New Year Is Considered Over..
counted hong baos liao, how much, dont tell u.. :p
lets recap for the past few days.
Wednesday
went to grandma's house to bai nian(mother's side). play blackjack with cousins and uncles, won quite a bit. i did a couple of tricks to my cousins and uncle and auntie. my uncle kept saying: wow, not bad huh.. hey man, that was good.
sth like that, haha. then my cousin tio shocked, by my gambling suite.. impressive, lol.
heres the funny part. my uncle told me to do some kiddy tricks for his daughter to see. so i took out a silk handkerchief and i simply made it disappear, and.. guess what, i shocked not only her daughter, but him as well. it was freaking funny, and i said, "magics arent only for kids.." yea.
then at around 5, we went to my dad's friend place. after everyone is there, we went to malaysia. had dinner at a restaurent, quite nice. then we drove over an hour to my father's friend's brother's place, where we collected the packets of firecrackers and rockets etc. i think it costed a few hundred rm, but who cares, not 1 pay 1..
we found a spot and we started lighting. it was something like this..: you stick a "rocket" into the ground, and light the fuse. the moment the fuse got lit up, the guy who lit it up would shout: ZHAO ARH!!!.. liddat. dam funny. but it was very fun, even the adults (my parents and my father's friends) enjoyed themselves too. so did the younger kids (count me out)..
yea, it was loud. and let me tell u, its dangerous too. the direction where the crackers or rocket fly towards is totally uncontrollable. if u're that unlucky, the rocket might backfire, and strike you right in the face, who knows. lol, bullshit.
they've already made arrangements for next year. they said that the crackers are too little and too "lousy". when we played, other people were also playing. and gosh, their firecrackers were BEAUTIFUL. its like those u see at national day, but the prices are insane too. $130 RM for a huge rocket like firework, those that u see at national day; for 15 shots. thats like $10 RM per shot.
so..: u light the fuse, shout "ZHAO ARH", and watch ur fireworks, and ur left mind starts counting.. 1 firework.. 2 firework.. 3 firework.. 4 firework.. 5 firework.. and ur right mind goes like this.. $10 gone.. $20 gone.. $30 gone.. $40 gone.. lol.
then we play blackjack, from 10pm - 12am. it was fun, the house almost collasped, we were shouting so loudly. the atmosphere was there. we left at 12am, took the 1 HOUR drive. and let me tell you, compare singapore and malaysia, it's heaven and earth. there're no street lights at some parts of malaysia. it was pretty dangerous; TOTAL darkness when the car turns its light off. scary..
reached sg at 1am, and home at 1.30am. didnt even bother to bathe, was too tired. just jumped on bed, and sleep..
thursday

and i stunned my father's friends with i turned a $2 note to a $50 note. lol. :P

saturday
went to zhang cheng's house to bai nian. watched S.H.E encore, and gosh, how bad i want that DVD.. left at around 3, and went to orchard with hs to buy stuff..
