Lunar New Year( A Gloomy season)

Hello mates, Let me wish y'all a happy lunar new year.

The Year of the Ox to be frank is not an enjoyable one for many as they are worried about what lies ahead as the country expects a negative growth. People are worried about their rice bowls.

As expected, the hongbaos i recevied this season reduced as everybody is saving up to tide the economic downturn. Well, hongbaos don't really matter to me. It is the ambience of the celebration that makes me elated. My paternal family was the most lively as the adults gathered to play 21 and blackjack while the youngsters stayed in the room for their own activities.

This continued towards day 2 while the place was at my paternal youngest uncle house. He opened up hard liquors like Chivas, Vodka. To my surprise, my uncle ming was still sober after he drank a cocktail of the hard liquors and challenged my dad's aunt's husband. My granduncle was a " Jiu Gui" meaning that he is a hard drinker.

Well, i hope that the next CNY will be a happier and more exciting. I am signing off.
