There is no need to wish everyone a happy chinese new year, nor a need to say too much of “wealth-wishing” greetings.

If they are really recession-proof, then there would have been no recession. Duh.

Maybe I should be saying, “Happy Chinese new year, may the year of the ox be one you don’t lose your job!”

I think I wished someone to have the stamina of an ox(ahem), though I later realised an ox is a castrated bull, and it doesn’t make sense either.

I got tired from all the obligations on new year, though I should make a mental note of I was pretty lucky to receive ang pows for myself(I received more than 10 ang pows and less than 20 I think), as well as baby(30+).

I shall not mention how my gambling luck is at an all time low, but I think of it as a good way to gamble my bad luck away so my mahjong luck will be shining brightly for the coming year.

But new year is a good excuse to take a break, indulge abundantly, and just… I don’t know, rest for a while before we have to wait till December before all the festive feeling will overwhelm us again, and we get all morose over the events over the year.

I am becoming a real good cynic.

I played Scene It? Box Office Smash on the Xbox 360, mostly in between the bare me-time I had.

I need my me-time man.

But my little one had so much fun and attention over the festive season that I didn’t want to deprive her of all those despite my allergy to family gatherings.

Oh well.

Back to work today and I have so much things on my mind and so much things to complete that I dreamt of work for the night, and thought about work throughout the new year.

Most people are still on holiday and it is no use for a holiday when time is running short.

So. I am looking forward to March weekends.

Though it is scary.

I am turning 28 soon.
