Gong Xi Fa Chai!

Mood: Chinese New Year mood

Song: Chai Seng Tau or Tong-tong-tong-chiang!

Had a most wonderful family reunion tonight. It was a great treat seeing my two sisters and having the whole Coolcat family reunited once again.

And of course, my niece could always melt my heart with her cheeky smile and warm hugs and kisses. She very much decided that I would be her best friend for this evening and stuck to me like glue the whole time. This little kid really has a mind of her own, can hold her own in conversations and loved to pose for pictures. Gee, I wonder where she inherited this narcissistic trait? It must come from her father’s side :P :P

After a sumptious dinner at my dad’s favourite restaurant, we watched some TV and opened up a bottle of sparkling grape juice and clinked glasses. Seeing each and everyone of my family members chatting so gaily with each other filled my heart so much warmth and happiness. I shall always be thankful that I was not born an only child. Food always tastes so much better if there are other siblings to fight them over with. And for all our differences, we always come through for each other in the end. Truly, there is nothing like family.

To all my Chinese readers and those who are celebrating Chinese New Year, have a good one.
