What a beautiful time together!

Heys! Happy Lunar New Year! Gong Xi Fa Cai! Wan Shi Ru Yi! Xing Xiang Shi Cheng! Hoorays! Today it was a joyous occasion for the family, for ALL of us met up and had dinner at my Big Aunt's place. Dinner was seriously secondary, but fellowship was invaluable and of utmost importance!

Lunar New Year visiting, as I once thought, is boring. However, as we get busier and busier during the other times of the year to even meet up for a simple meal, the tradition of visiting has enabled the extended family to come together at least once a year to catch up and reminisce of the good old times.

It was really nice meeting up with my cousins tonight, and boy wasn't it a killer fun time! We played block catching! Fancy all of us above the age of 14 doing such a thing. =] It is really nice once in a while to just let down your hair and let the fun overwhelm your senses and just enjoy the little time that you have with those people you hold dear to..I'm really glad that people still observe such a tradition nowadays during Lunar New Year!

Have fun with your remaining visitings! May God continue to bless us with good weather, and His blood of protection be upon us whilst we travel from place to place. Take care and watch that stomach! =]
