Hey, another week has passed and I hope everyone had enjoyed the celebration of Chinese New Year (holidays for those who do not celebrated). Other than those “typical” questions relatives would ask, one common question people usually ask during CNY is “how much did you win?” Yes, gambling is a common practice amongst Chinese during CNY. Honestly, I do not know how to gamble, cards and mahjong seems like a foreign culture to me. You might think it is weird that I do not know how to play, but it is my family brought up. I’m not allowed to play since young. Daddy said it is meaningless to win family’s (relatives) money and gamble does harm to people. However, it is fun watching relative laughing and shouting during the process. I think it is another way of bonding among the relatives. Nevertheless, self-control is my advice to those who gamble. Otherwise it might ruin your celebration mood and even relationship with relatives and friends. Besides, I had been traveling to Bali in the past few days. Unfortunately, there is something happened to my relatives. I felt sorry that I couldn't attend my uncle’s funeral. (R.I.P)
In the remembrance of both of my deceased grandpas, this year, both side of my family did not celebrate CNY. And I hope both of them doing well in another world. (':
p.s- I will update the Bali post on coming Tuesday night or Wednesday. Stay tune.
