Hm...: Meaning of CNY

Memandangkan tahun ini tahun Lembu utk cina.. i caught a bull like cloud.

Chinese New Year has alot of hidden meaning. The word CNY for us chinese is very very important.

First
CNY = Cleaning 'N' Yelling
Before the real CNY come there is a Pre CNY where u need to clean ur house, paint, pimp your house and get ready for humans to come. Parents will nag and sometimes yell at you to clean your room. Wat i did was paint my Dark Water ceiling.

see or not macam shape of a bird bird.

then i dun dare to touch this brush. BER STD !

but because we were not tall enough to reach the ceiling we need to stick it to a broom.

Painting is easy but then covering the floor is erm... time consuming..

tat is why we decided to make a super big piece and made a tunnel with it

we call it SMART TAI TUNNEL

after covering the floor, we start painting

and i went downstairs an do some touch up on my front door.. half an hour later i went back upstairs to the tunnel and..

tis is wat i saw.. alot of signs

these are what the signs say..

so i have to find an alternate route... but its an impossible route. sorry i was laughing when tis pic was taken.

its tiring and dirty

but outcome... SATISFACTION.

Second
CNY = Closeness Never Yawns

Yeap its the time of the year where you go back to ur hometown

not you but the entire KL humans.. SIANS!!! indian malay chinese all balik kampung.

my kampung is in Malacca and as we grow older place like this is getting less interesting.. but still each time i come back, it jus bring back all those fun memories we had during childhood.

used to be our most scariest place on earth. The well. It still gives me goosebumps now.

and hometown is like a gathering hall for all relatives.

Gather for breakfast.

Lunch. Teatime.

Dinner and supper. My moth did not stop moving or empty throughout my stay in my hometown.

after dinner its time for each and everyone to take turns to sin ka lan. hahaha. Sharing and story telling.

and also gathering together to watch movie, scary movie.

oh and not to forget pray for our ancestors and then buy 4 ekor from the numbered joss sticks.

fireworks.. judging by my bro's look, he is planning a route to escape after lighting up the firecracker.

and others jus close their ears.

u say la.. with all the fun and excitement and relatives closeness, how can u get boring and yawn. Tats why Closeness Never Yawns.

Third
CNY = Chonker Not You

U never want to be a chonker, coz u want to win money and chonkers percentage of winning is not high. Tat is why no ones like being a Chonker.

We gamble alot during CNY. We played

Cards

Mah jong.

we played everywhere, when there is empty space, we will buka table.

Tis year we did something different, we played with chips.

alot of chips, enough for everyone who wans to gamble. One thing about chips are its nice to hold. U dont see how much u spend. And u cant get caught by the EYE EYE.
