What I like about Chinese New Year.

Alright, so it's been 12 days since I've last blogged. And yeah, I'm pretty sorry about that. I've been really busy with bazaar, school work, and loads of stuff. Especially with Chinese New Year inching closer, it's really hard to not be busy at all.

So, I look forward to Chinese New Year a lot. Because it's the only time where I get to dress really pretty. Well, not really, actually. Haha! But I like dressing up really pretty. I think it's the dressing up that boosts my confidence, makes me feel good, which is why I like it a lot. I like to look at my best wherever I go. As someone said, "Always dress to kill.". I kinda adopted that now whenever I'm out. Unless I'm just going downstairs to get a haircut or buy some stuff or go to my dentist for my appointment. Other than that, I'll put on BB cream, foundation powder and lip balm. When I'm going to my dentist, minimal BB cream and foundation powder. And if I'm going clubbing, it's BB cream, foundation powder, mascara, a teeny weeny bit of blusher (cos my pimples are red enough) and lipstick. Okay, I've no idea why I'm telling you this but yeah. I think I just wanna look pretty, that's why I put on make-up. Well, who doesn't wanna look pretty? Isn't that why girls wear make-up? Cos they want to look pretty. Some do so for guys, some do so so that other girls wouldn't despise them, some to make friends and some with various other reasons. Never say one who put on make-up as superficial or fake. It hurts them, really. Cos they have their reasons to put on make-up same as how you have your reasons not to.

Anyways, another thing I like about CNY is the food!!! Yes, the food. Regardless of finger food or steamboat or buffet, I love them all. I mean, who doesn't?! Bakwa, love letters, pineapple tarts (I know most of you love this but not me, sorry!), almond biscuits, oranges and some others. Goodness. The never-ending list of food you eat during CNY visiting or when you're home. I know I'm like really skinny but I eat a lot. Well, sometimes I do. Like maybe I can have McNuggets and McWings for lunch. Okay, that's pretty scary to some. So anyways, I have high metabolism rate. WAY TOO HIGH. Yeah, that explains why I'm super skinny. Another thing is that I'd normally get sore throat during CNY period due to all the consumption of heaty food.

Lastly, every kid and youths and teenagers and those unmarried ones would like this - red packets (angpao)! Haha, yes I'm a greedy person. But the money I get from my red packets normally go into my bank. So I have this habit of counting my angpao money after the 15th day in the lunar calendar. Well, I have to because my dad has this strict rule of no-opening-our-angpaos-before-15th. So yeah. After I count my money, I'll pass them all to my mum who'll put it in my trust fund with her for me. So, tadums!

Alright, maybe there're more things I like about CNY but I can't really think of it and I gotta do some revision now cos sadly I have a paper right after CNY! I know that's sad. Don't rub it in. 11 chapters to study. I'm so dead. So now, goodbye to my dear readers!
