Chinese New Year...

I just found out something this Chinese New Year - I'm growing old!! Too old to enjoy the Chinese New Year festives alr... =(

I rmb last time when I was a small kid, how I used to long for Chinese New Year. Of coz, that time CNY was a good break from school life lolx. but that's not the point. I rmb really looking forward to it, visiting different houses, relatives and friends, the atmosphere, the collecting of Hongbaos, the food... Well, i still look forward to the Hongbaos and food (of coz!), but somehow nowadays the atmosphere feels so like.. bleah. like it's just another year, nothing special abt it. wonder what happened along the way? where did I lose that feeling?

Yesterday's CNY eve reunion at my aunt's place was really not much different from other years. but this year the feeling was like - just eat and go home. of coz, the fact that I went there after work, half shagged, plus my parents wanting to go to one of their friend's mother's wake didn't help things. but somehow the mood is just so... different from other years. it seems to get worse every year. maybe it's my imagination.. I HOPE. or maybe it's really becoz I'm growing older, that CNY does not mean as much to me as it used to... whatever lar. HAIX. =(
