CNY - do you look forward to it?
-
Sadly…no. I don’t have the spirit anymore, and I’m still afraid of the past CNY in which the fear of that horrible thing (not related to CNY) and how overwhelming the celebrations were.
This year would definitely go better. -

CNY can be boring with all the visitations. Non-Chinese can enjoy the holiday but do remember to stock up their fridge bcos stalls will be closed and food may be stale. I once had diarrhea after eating at hawker centre on the 4th day of CNY.Sadly...no.

I just hope it does not rain too much. Otherwise may have to postpone favourite visitations also…

Oh really? That's bad. Then in this case, it's safer to dine at McDonald's...

One of the reasons y I dislike CNY :
Madness in Supermarket. Its beena nightmare everyone is buying pushing. Think you might even need a special license to push trolley. Its really a challenge to grab what u need throw it in the trolley, push it through the crowd without crashing into something.

(2) Need to travel 3 places during lst day of CNY… tiring esp when now im expecting…
(3) Go everywhere also eat steamboat which im quite sick of it…
(4) visit to my MIL relatives side on lst day, very boring, so many pple, practically no place to sit! Finally found a seat, i just sit there and yawn non stop, then one hr later, ask my hubby to go off to my mum hse! -
