Year of the Pig!
CNY door decor

this is my first ever year that i didn't get to have a traditional Reunion Dinner.
oh well. we tried to get into the festive mood. I even went into chinatown twice last week, hoping to find some goodies to get, even though we dont really eat them. and on the eve, NAB and i braved the chinatown crowd, and bought this thing - really, the only thing that we have to "celebrate" the new year with. No mandarin oranges, no ang paos to give or receive...
i'm wondering if i'm supposed to feel homesick, or really glad that i don't even have to find an excuse to not do the usual CNY things that we used to try to avoid. But honestly, i think what i miss most is the gambling, and playing poker with my friends till the early morning...
in any case, chinatown was really boring. there were hardly any stalls, just lots and lots of people... guess the parade and all is there mainly for the tourists...
p.s. oh, and you know your dog is getting old when he is falling asleep sitting upright next to you...
