Chinese New Year 2011 my youngest brother went to Sibu with the in-laws to visit their Grandma. It was a rainy CNY for some part of malaysia with flood and all.
the first day of CNY was clear sky all day but the following day when we wanted to visit relatives it was raining almost all day.
this year I would say is a year of learning for me. I found out that my Great Grandmother from my mother's side is actually a Nyonya from Singapore. and that my youngest aunt who was given away to a doctor when she was a baby because she was sickly, and is now married to an American actually had a baby girl. she is my cousin my youngest cousin that is only like 4 or 5 years old around the same age as my nephew is.
FaceBook is a great place to see your relatives' picture and such.
Ahqim has a great expensive house that i aspired to have someday and Aubrey has grown quite tall
all in all CNY is a time to get in touch with your family and friends in my case mostly with my family member.
it is great to see how everyone is doing and for people like me who is working far away from home it just might be the only time i see my relatives once a year.
