Update
I realised I haven't been blogging since the chinese new year. My laziness have been crawling up unto me, arghh! So much for this whole three months break period while waiting for the new year 2 semester starting only in April.
So, I had this short update on what happened during this merry festive season!
Spent the first and second day of the new year going on visitations to relatives and friends' place.
Went to cvc's house the first day, met up with so many of my sec school classmates and friends. All of us seemed to be studying in different cities, it's so good that all of us came back and met up once again. Topics were interesting, mainly on how our lives have been studying abroad. Had so much to catch up with each other about.

And while we were all ready posing for a girl session picture, ah wah suddenly popped into the picture.
The next day, Daddy invited Esther's uncle, uncle fung and family, who cared for me, provide space for me to check in during the weekends, and brought me to church for worship during Sundays in Singapore, to our place for lunch. They came back to Sandakan from Singapore to spend the chinese new year too, since Sandakan is also his hometown, only that he shifted to Singapore during his early years.
We played 'lami' (i have no idea why is it named like that). I rarely play lami, this was my third time playing in my whole life I think, resulting in the tutoring on this whole session of the game by Esther, mummy, and even my aunt. Imagine a whole bunch of people tutoring, giving you the slighest idea of how dumb and blur i can be at this game.
And in the living room, my bro and uncle were talking to uncle fung while my parents were preparing in the dining room. And all the while, my brother was trying to entertain my precious doggie by scratching his back. haha (this is indeed my dog's favourite part, back scratching!)
Went to Seah Kea Joe's house later on that day and managed to meet up with Elena, who was my ex-classmate (both in secondary school and also in the Sinaran Institute) and my ex-roommate during our study days abroad in Kota Kinabalu. We always have night chats on our beds with the lights off before going to sleep during those days and I, am always the one who fall off asleep first.
Me, Elena and Esther.
We also had firecrackers then.
On the third day, my family and I, also my aunt's together with cousins went on a trip to Sabah Tea Plantation. We stayed in the chalet inside the tea leaves plantation farm. It was my mummy's idea to go on this trip, said she needed some fresh air, a get away from the town, plus this was an educational trip. It was almost a three and a half hour trip by car.

And finally, the entrance.
So, the air was indeed fresh there with all the tea leaves planted in front of our chalet.
