vick prob has so much time that he even contributes to my blog.. go find a part-time job, vick..
cny was fun because i had the time to gamble, everyday.. of cuz i lost.. i din play mahjong like wat the others did.. neither did i bet on singaporeans' favourite, blackjack.. i went back to malaysia to visit my grandparents.. so the game that they played was a different kind.. it is called gin rummy.. it looks simple, as it is just 2 sets of poker cards on mahjong tiles, and all we need to do is connect the tiles in running numbers.. whoever is the first to clear all the tiles on hand wins..
of course, who has all the luck in the world to clear everything? so this game is more of skill and the thinking process is no easier than mahjong.. i play the game at home at times but my relatives are really good.. most of the time i was outwitted by them.. so you know where my money goes to.. its not that my luck is really lousy, as i have won bout 30 bucks from just a few rounds of blackjack with my cousins, it is the versatility of the game that really kills a lot of brain cells..
but other than that, tts all for cny.. it was the usual stuff, collect ang pow and eat cookies and get questioned by relatives bout wat i am doing and stuff..
kenna arrowed to do alot of stuff.. think i can say goodbye to my europe backpacking trip..
du lan..
