Chinese New Year

I forgot to blog about the celebration of Chinese New Year. I should have done it earlier but considering the lazy me, I normally leave it till I am feeling bored. Anyway, here goes.

On the night of Chinese New Year eve, we had a dinner reunion with cousins and cousins' friends. For once, I do feel the Chinese New Year mood. With the cousins running around and I can practically hear people talking loudly in the living room. I know this can't be compared to having the whole cousins clan but at least lynnwei and JY koko were here.

JY koko and his friend just left for Brunei this morning. I manage to get up early to wish them goodbyes. Before they left, I said see you in July. Yes! I am going back soon. I can't wait. :P Anyway, back to the topic.

Photo above shows some of the cousin clans and the dinner table. I felt really bloated after the dinner and I was just about to feel even more CNY mood when lynnwei left to go to Paris. Sigh.. I still wish she's here and JY koko too. In a week's time, I will also be leaving to go back to NZ. Sigh..

Well, it is good in a way to put everything back to studies once again. My flatmate and I won't be moving into the homestay house we were supposed to stay in this year after all. They just bought a house which I assume is very far from university. Right, back to the CNY topic.

On the weekend, my parents and I decided to go to Chinatown in Leicester Square. Apparently they had CNY celebration. Excuse me for typing Chinese New Year as short form. It's too long to type.

There were so many people, making the place so crowded till I cannot breathe properly. I have to constantly hold my parent's hand so I don't get lost or lost sight of them both. Below is the photo of the fireworks at the centre of a park, in front of Empire Cinema. It is a nice view, right?
