Are You Looking Forward To Chinese New Year?

[cherrygal]

Angelight… we are in same boat. DH’s bro’s wife is also MIL’s fave DIL. Every year I see the difference in treatment and get upset. Spoils my day. I am waiting for MIL and her fave DIL to make comments on my gal then I will pounce. RRRRrrroar

Oh dear, DD now needs specs at a young age and I am expecting those irritating in-laws (not just the grandparents) to make irrelevant comments that will hurt a mother's heart.


I am not gonna let them get away with it. I am already rehearsing my acidic replies just in case. :mad: :nunchuk:

I know that my skinny DS's weight issue will be repeated.. ...numb liaoz :stupid:

I can understand comments from the fave DIL coz there no blood linkage between her and your gal. But why would your MIL pass comments on her own granddaughter!!! :?

I belong to the MIL’s favourite type. But it is actually not fun. I do feel embarrass when pple praise me at the expense of others. And I feel ostracised by the others. And I feel isolated, though I try to jus smile n downplay things said abt me. I even try to be friendly, but don’t feel accepted by others.

Well, my MIL is one person who brags about her fave DIL's baby (aka fave grandson) at MY gal's full month party... and guess to who... to my parents! :siao:

So this woman might just feign ignorance and start making useless comments if her DIL questions me about my gal at the reunion dinner... :rant:

No appetite to eat already... these things really make the dinner very stressful and defeats the original purpose in \"re-uniting with loved ones\".

For me, I'm looking forward to it, but preparations seem more exciting than the actual day somehow. But then again, it's really not anything as enjoyable as my childhood time. <Lao Liao :sad: >

Absolutely 100% looking forward to it. Kids are thrilled, great food at my mum's and MIL's, time with relatives, mahjong with old friends, drinking with neighbours...... :evil:

OMG. I love CNY!!

SO looking forward to it!! A long-weekend for resting, collecting tons of angpao money and eating sweets, biscuits, drinking soft drinks, eating bakkwa and sticky cake like nobody's business. LOL

Here, I wish everyone a very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very happy and auspicious Chinese New Year!

祝贺大家新年快乐，万事如意。 花开富贵， 子孙满堂。 年年有余， 龙年行大运！
