No holiday. Still need to work. :crying: Go to a restaurant to have family dinner on New Year Eve. Projected expense - $300 (== 2 AT-800) on red pocket money to kids and mom (retired). Projected income from Chinese New Yar - $0.
Wish you enjoy it. Especially if you have 10 single cousins and 12 nieces and nephews all living in San Jose like me. And the number of nieces and nephews are increasing every year.
Would be flying back to my hometown, celebrating it there with my parents and brother. Dang, I've not been home for more than a year now. :crying:
shucks, i missed it indeed. would it be too late to extend him my well wishes. anyway, happy chinese new year to all. i just hope to have a quiet time this new year season.
By the way Kwun, did you know that for the first CNY as a married couple, Janet and you would have to give out two red packets per person instead of one?
Indeed chèrie. It's a custom but whether it is followed by the new Han household, it's another matter altogether, eh, Kwun? But two as in one from each of them, Kwun and Janet, not two from him, two from her. That'll burn his wallet...
My friends and I are planning to gather up and eat a big "Fire-Pot" Dinner in my apartment Chinese people -> Eat eat eat.......
