- Lunar new year expedition CNY 2007 was filled with intensive boredom and unsatisfaction. Once again this was the period to display my incorrigible habit of not socializing among my relatives.I would rather sit at some inconspicuous corner with my brother, enduring his snide remarks about my life and studies, than talk to my uncles, aunties and cousins. Sitting around them was quite a nightmare for me. I was surrounded by people who share the same blood as me, yet I only see them once a year. The bonding was definitely not there. My mom was not helping either. She was talking at the top of her lungs, unaware of the bored look on my relatives' faces and an incredulous one on mine. During my stay at my relatives' house, I caught snippets of really insightful comments (*note the sarcasm) about their life, work and children's studies. I felt myself shrinking as my aunties and uncles surveyed me with beady and some rather distasteful look. I spent almost an hour at a corner with my brother playing golf on his hand phone, taking alternate shots at the fairways. Thank goodness for the red packets to salvage the situation. It was like being paid to be scrutinized at, and enduring all the conversations around me. Moving away from my disastrous CNY visits, I am now preparing for my semestral exams, taking place 2 days later. The guilt in my heart is growing heavier as I am not fully prepared yet. It is lucky that my dance trainings are suspended at the moment, that leaves me more time to study. Unfortunately I'm not the kind who can sit at the table for 2 hours, poring over my book. Hence leading to endless hours on eBay, scouting for the best bargains. Daph
