This shall be my second Chinese New Year post if I'm not wrong
This year, I've no idea what's ahead
Nothing seems to be about my zodiac this year as none can be seen or heard on the television

Anyways, as usual, Chinese New Year's eve was spent eating lunch at my grandma's house
Unlike other normal families which have reunion dinner, mine, we have lunch
At night, again as usual, my mum would cook fried mee hoon
I feel that as if Chinese New Year is just like any other day
It brings no special routines or anything, except for the sounds of fireworks around me
Ever since the death of my grandmother, CNY is nothing at all
I miss those times when I can go back hometown, play with my cousins and her friends, and cycle on the empty roads
Even if there are people of cars, they treat you politely and sometimes, even talked to you if they recognised you
This year, I have four cars that can take me back home
But I've got on none
My mum refused to go back as she claimed that her mum is no longer there
There's no longer a reason to go back
But I'm thinking, why can't go back and reminisce on the memories?
Even her dead mother would have love that
But I guess, my mum is still living in denial
I miss hometown

On the first day of Chinese New Year, I spent it at home whole day
Playing Plant vs. Zombies and doing Stats homework
My parents went out with friends
And so did my sis and bro
I was left alone at home, ordering McD

On the second day of Chinese New Year
I'm not feeling well with hints of cramps
Due to the painkiller took, I'm now in dazed
Though they say it's necessary to stay happy and upbeat during CNY,
I can't help but feeling down
The childhood of the memories of CNY, I can no longer get it back
I guess it's time to grow up
Nothing seems fun and happy anymore..

Anyways, Happy Chinese New Year people :)
