Happy New Year !

Happy New Year !!

This year's celebrations was different compared to the previous years. Since I was born till I was 11, the reunion dinners and the new year countdown was held at my grandfather's home in Ujong Pasir, Malacca. But since my grandpa's health worsens, the celebrations and dinner was held at my auntie's house in Ayer Keroh, also Malacca. All his sons, daughters, and grandchildren would gather and have a feast. Its quite interesting, because, all my 3 aunties live in the very same street !

However, last year, my grandfather was affected by stroke, and had to be put into a nursing home specially for stroke patients. So this year, my uncle who lives in Klang volunteered to bring my grandfather back. So this year's celebrations was quite drab, with only 2 families involved.

But so far, the Year of the Rooster has so far been a very generous one for me. My aunties and uncles have surprisingly doubled the amount inside those cute red packets. On the stroke of midnight, my uncle, who was the host of the reunion dinner, gave me RM ## instead of RM # last year (* figures are undisclosed). The next day, my parents gave RM ###### ; thats triple of last year's amount.

To top it up, even my auntie in Malacca, who usually gives the highest amount among all of my uncles and aunties from my dad's side, kept up with the trend and double her efforts ! Anyway, what surprised me the most is my cousin, who is not married suddenly popped up with an angpow with RM 10 inside ! My goodness !

So God of Prosperity, keep up the good work !
