chinese new year nian chu er.

did nothing much today actually, just went to aunt's house and slack around and watch tv. went to grandma's house after that for the rest of the day and for once i actually had fun with my cousins that i thought i could not get along with. but don't know why they were easy to get along with today, everybody actually sat down together and ate and had fun together. it just seemed like when we were young and i was so close to them. after getting into sec sch made me drift away frm them. different frequency i guess.. but for this cny, everything seemed to have went back to normal. maybe i should spend more time with the paternal side instead of the maternal side. tho i get along best with the cousins on my maternal side. hmm. tough choice i guess. should find a balance i think.

haiz. but this year chinese new year is filled with a sad note as well .. who would have know uncle to pass away so soon, at such a young age (maybe 61 is not too young), and this is only the second death of my lifetime. a few more would come my way but hopefully not so soon. Humans are just part of a life cycle, life and death is all so natural. just like cockroaches have their three-stage cycle and mosquitoes with their egg-larvae-pupa-adult cycle. my sis was actually shocked, but cant be helped cos it's her first death. i dont actually remember much frm grandpa's funeral cos i was still young.. but still.. life goes on.

this is the first entry for this blog and i've actually got not much to say. not sure if this will be more effective than my diary in my room so let's just wait and see. meanwhile happy chinese new year to myself and to say the truth i miss school, classmates, juniors and excomates. sigh.
