Year Year Have Fish

Hello everybody. I bid everybody Happy Chinese New Year. It’s been a long time since I posted a new article about my life. Things have changed so much after the first time I started my blog. At first, I was full of zest to write my daily activities. I even posted about what I saw on the television and what I did at school. However, I started to feel bored after a few months. Months after my first article, I began to feel lazy and unmotivated to type every daily activity that happened because it is almost the same. I just posted what I felt was special which deserves to be remembered as something nostalgic in the future. As time passes and my life was getting more hectic because of my studies and part-time job as a tutor, I have become idle to post anything. Every time I switched on my computer, I would only think about which game I should play and which anime I should watch. Consequently, most of the articles and essays which I wrote recently have become boring and dull. Most of the time, I would only concentrate my mind to conceive any bombastic words to be used in my essays and neglecting on how to make the essay to be more appealing. In fact, I opine that my previous post was quite dull. Now, I need to take at least an hour to write an essay. Before that, I have lots of inspirations and ideas which I can use to write my essay. Those ideas would arouse almost immediately whenever I am given a topic.

Let’s change a topic shall we? I wish Gong Xi Fa Cai to all my fans. I’m sure that most of us have become rich after receiving so many ang paos with hundreds of ringgits. After this, don’t forget to treat me to a meal, ok! While everyone visits their relatives during Chinese New Year, I spent most of my time at home. I only visited my third aunt and brother during the second day of Chinese New Year. It’s not like I want to visit them so badly but it’s not that I don’t want to visit them too. I want to visit some and feel the Chinese New Year ambience at least. When I went to my third aunt’s and brother’s houses, they were really friendly. They asked the usual questions and comment on the usual things too such as

“Waaaoo, you have grown so tall aaa?”

or

“waaa, you are a tutor aaa”.

Then, we have dinner at my third aunt’s house at around 6 p.m. At 8 p.m., we went to my brother’s house to visit him. We also brought gifts for both of them. When I arrive at his house, I was quite concern about the growth of my nephew. You won’t believe that that’s my nephew if you see him. He is so skinny that you will think that he is a refuge from Afghanistan or Iraq. He doesn’t like to eat any decent meals except sweet desserts or expensive delicacies. He is also a slow learner and got terrible grades at school. He can even tell this to my third aunt. All of us just don’t whether too shook our heads or laugh out loud after hearing his statement.

Here’s the story:

My aunt asked him what rank did he achieved in class. He replied that he got the 33rd rank in school. My aunt asked him again how many students there are in the class. He said that there are 34 students. My aunt having a positive mind said that at least he surpassed a classmate. Do you know what he said in the end? He said he didn’t surpass any of his classmates as there are actually 2 persons who attained the 33rd rank in class. So, actually he is of the last rank in his class.

He is always pampered by his parents since he was young. He gets all the toys he wants and all the chores are done for him. The situation has worsened since he got a Playstation 2. MAMAMIYA!!! A 5 year old already owns a Playstation 2. This is a bad influence for him. He will certainly be distracted from his studies and dislikes studying later on just like I did. Opps… I wonder what kind of person he will become later on. ~Sigh~. The worst part is when my dad and I are on our way home. Actually, the engine of our car was slightly damage. That’s why we didn’t go out much during the whole week but it would be ironic if we were to just stay at home during at home. Our relatives might assume that we are rude too. One of the parts of the engine called something like “casket” was damaged. It functions as one of the cooling system in the car to keep the engine cool. Without it, the car will heat up very fast and the engine will only last for around 40 minutes. After that, we need to cool it with water and the let the temperature drops before we can continue our journey. The engine was so hot that the water we poured instantly evaporates into water vapours as soon as it touches the engine. We managed to somehow drive to my third aunt’s and brother’s house. However, things were not that lucky for us when we are returning home. Just when we reached the 7-Eleven shop near the police station in Ampang, our car started to be bumpy and sluggish. My father tried to restart the car for a few times but it is still the same. On our third attempt to start the car, the engine has overheated. We have no choice but to push it to the parking bay near the 7-eleven shop. We are drenched in sweat after pushing the car. After that, we have to walk home. ~Sigh~.

How unfortunate for us. The next day, we just watched pirated DVDs the whole day. This is my activities during this Chinese New Year. Last of all, I wish all of you:

1. Dragon Horse Sperm God
2. Wood Round Rolling Rolling Come
3. One Sail Wind Smooth
4. Year Year Have Fish

I have also posted a new album which comprises the picture taken during the new year party at my tutor's house.
