Chinese new year

HAHHAAAAAA GAHHH

I just got back from kedah! friggin kedah! thats right, my dad drove from one end of Malaysia to the other. We haven't done this in YEARS. And guess what, my loot (angpaos DUH!) from this trip pwns the total all the angpaos from the last 5 years! good haul good haul. I know I know, I'm pathetic. Oh and a cousin I haven't seen since she was a baby, who is now 9 years old, apparently, according to relatives, look like me.

Since I haven't been back in Kedah for yearrrrrs, everyone of my relatives were like, OMG she's grown soooo big now, so tall. How old is she? form 5, OMG so fast already wor. Heck some of them couldn't even recognize me. It's all cool though, seeing them again. We went also to visit my mum's ancient aunts and uncles (whom I did not even know existed). They were all real nice, though they kept forcing drinks on me. I got a tummy ache. gahhh.

My whole extended family went to my grandmum's old house, now my aunts house to talk and just hang out. I went to the toilet and got stuck in there, my GOD, i screamed for help and my mum came (along with the rest of the family, but I didn't know at that time) and tried to calm me down by handling various tools for me to pry the damn lock open. I did eventually and everyone cheered and shake hands with me. dammit.

So yea, we originally planned to crash at my uncle's place but....... at the end we stayed in this weird homestay thing which is really a big house with a lot of rooms like a hotel. I hated the place cause it smells weird. And half the time there is nobody manning the front desk (table with a record book and a calculator and some stamps) and you could like, just, I dunno, prod around like I did.

Oh yea, on the last night, my uncle took us to this crowded thai restaurant. the food was nice, i suppose, and the drinks they ordered for all of us were sour and weird, but we waited for TWO HOURS for the food to arrive. and it's not just us, every table had to wait for two hours for their food! it was amazing. I got so pissed of after the second hour i started yelling at every waiter who passed by our table (it was the tummy making me!) but all of them ignored me. sheeeesh.

So that was my chinese new year.
