Beginning of the End 2

It just occurred to me that I'm sort of weird, because in just a single year, I celebrate two countdown

For most people living on the western sides, they just had 1 countdown, New Year

Aha, we're so special that we get to have another Chinese New Year

And it only meant that we have extra holidays, not too shabby either

And so according to my time zone, its an hour and 30mins past the year

To be exactly official, 11pm is already the New Year aha, Lunar I presume?

Alright, I don't want to dwell in these nitpicking aspects

So I've seen some people wanting to themselves to be better in the upcoming year, you name it, and the funny thing is that they just wished for it during New Year, sort of weird if you ask me

So, on the eve itself, we didn't went to relatives house for whatsoever reunion dinner or such, we settled it at our own house

Partly due to my mum's side of relative were at another country

And on my fathers side, our family had a dispute with them, because they tried seizing the "fortune" after my grandparents left the world

And it cause quite a lot of problems, such as the reunion dinner and such

It just teaches me that a will is essential, preventing any sort of disputes, if I'm going to have one, most probably donating it would be a better choice, in my opinion

I sort of envy those people who have healthy and moving grandparents with them, they get to communicate with them, talk to them, asking about how their tough life were

Because in my mother's side, grandmother went before I came into this world, grandfather left me before I was knowing what happened

On my father's side, didn't had much chance to speak to my grandfather, only left either my grandmother, who was unfortunately bed ridden

Lots of problems soon came by, it is going to be endless, the mockery by these relatives and such

Yes, it is difficult, but life still moves on as usual, the Earth doesn't stop spinning because of me

So to those who still have a part of their relatives, I hope they'll cherish them

Maybe it's because I've lost some things in life, and the scarcity issues always led to me not take things for granted

But then again, occasionally, I do make some mistakes, I ain't no saint

So yea, 5 of us sat down at a round table eating some good stuffs

like Sharks Fin ( I know it's cruel ), Abalone and such, once in a lifetime stuff

Even so, everyday feels like a reunion dinner to me, most of the time, my dad would come home for dinner, and I felt that I'm more blessed than other people

Cherish what I have now, and try to get more without losing the old stuff

So we just sat down, chilled and chatted

Around 11pm we then prayed to the ancestors, this is why I sort of like the Chinese Culture, we never forget our roots (No puns or anything offensive meant)

So the more realistic part comes, dad and mum handed the angpows to us, giving us some well wishes

Dad just told me to control your anger at times, and yea, didn't know why, I'm getting more and more hot-tempered, maybe due to the fact that I'm holding back too much, and venting the anger on the wrong target, aha human

And he hoped that I do well in examination, he hit the jackpot, thanks Dad!

My mum didn't say much, but I'll know what's expected of me aha

And we've continued watching the shows to wait for the countdown at 12am, such irony

Probably they're dead beat, and snoring like logs now

So tomorrow, or should I say today, they'll be going to the temple, aha

Its a good time to stretch my muscles, and to sooth my mind, which is sort of in a mess, needs a defragment right now

And the day after, my relatives will be dropping by, I guess that equates to a sumptuous feast awaiting, and I'm looking forward, which also meant that my homework is going to suffer, aww

But then again, it's something for me to have my brains relaxed a bit, save more brain cells I supposed?

Alright, time to snore

I don't know if you're looking at this, but if you're reading, I just hope that you'll have a Happy Chinese New Year too!

The irrational feeling is being stirred again
