Chinese New Year!
(Journal 2)
The day start off like this.......
On the 26 of January, which Chinese people called the 'chu yi', I woke up early at 8.30 plus. I went to on the water heater, to let the water temperature to be hot. While waiting i went to watch the television. As it was interesting, i watch for half an hour more and forgot of the water heater. Until my sister woke up at 9.00a.m. which was about 30 minutes later. Then i quickly off the television and went to bath. After that, my sister make up for me, after that it is already 10 a.m.
Then i went to take my breakfast. It was yummy, delicious! After everyone finished, the first place we went to, is my grandmother's house which was just next to my house. When i reach there i greeted them and then we sat there to watch television. At about 12.30p.m. we went to fetch my aunt and then we went to the places that we need to go. As Singapore has financial problems, our 'Red Packets', in Chinese which is known as 'AngBao' money was decrease. It was a bad news to children. Last time when I had never these problems, every year i would get at least 600 dollars plus for my 'Red Packets' money but this year i get only 238 dollars. I am already feeling very happy as some of my friends only get 100 dollars plus which was less fortunate so i should have appreciate it, so this is how i celebrate my Chinese New Year! So, once again i wish all of you a HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
