CNY - do you look forward to it?
-
CNY is really for the kids…I remember getting all excited about CNY when I was younger - new clothes and everything. Now, I just couldn’t be bothered. Fortunately, I’ve passed the ‘when are you getting married’ and ‘when are you having another kid’ stage. Whew !!!
I will enjoy first 2 days of CNY this year, bcos I told myself NOT to plan any work for son…enjoy this year as next year will be crucial year (PSLE). -
I don’t like CNY cos most of the relatives we hardly meet the whole year round, so come together on CNY don’t really know what to say. Plus they are most likely to compare kids or number of kids, and ask insensitive question like “so when are you going to have another baby?”.
Have been toying with the idea of going away for a family vacation during CNY, but the pricing is so much more ex durng this period. anyone has done it before (go on holiday during CNY). Is it worth it? -
I LOVE Chinese New Year! Always have, since a child, and now as a adult with kids, perhaps even more so.
The festivities, cookies, bak kwa, CNY songs (yeah, some here may mock me for not being to understand all the lyrics, but...) time with family, giving ang-pows, receiving ang-pows. Yeah, tiring and some parts that are a little draggy, but overall great fun. -
finally feeling a little CNY mood.
went DBS queued for new notes, after 30 mins, some of the denominations ran out -
the mood and joy of CNY i experience now is never the same when i was a child.
during childhood, the 2 days of CNY were my happiest days in the entire year. :imcool: -

same here but i don't mind since they are my darling nieces and nephews. -
Ang pao wise, don’t really lugi since I have 2 kids…it’s ok to give to my unmarried cousins because we grew up together and rather close.
Now thinking when to change curtains in the hall and daughter’s room…next weekend will change bedsheets. Washed kids’ new clothes already.
