rest day
for the past 7 days, have been doing a lot of cleaning, washing, mopping, then eating, drinking. time flies, today is already the 6th day of CNY. day 1-3 were solely occupied with family and relatives.
i started working on day 4. other colleagues in the same department took longer break as they went back to penang and ipoh. i will take a day off next tue. the 9th day of CNY is the BIG day for hokkien.
according to the "start work" calendar, my best day would be on day 5. but i didnt find it best as i was "stranded" in the office until 9.30pm. some hiccup with work due to miscommunication. no point to get angry, just quickly sorted them out as it's due next monday.
during the past 2 working days, we went out for lunch. vegetarian and then organic lunch. drove out because traffic was still smooth as many were still on leave. not often we got the chance to do this. haha.
after a hectic one week of none stop cleaning, washing, eating, drinking, today is the day i woke up without the alarm buzzing, had a hearty (free - met with aunty lily & the in laws, so they paid our bill) breakfast, i went back to bed late morning. woke up when the phone rang, as i was expecting guest coming. but the question asked was, "how much do you need for 200 Tarps"? aiyo... how to answer? i dont know how to pluck numbers from the sky wei!
and then had a simple lunch of congee with salted fish, pickled vege & fermented bean curd. we ate too much meat for the past few days, so, it's time to let the stomach digest something simpler. reheated the yee-mee mum fried last night, and finished it. didnt eat much last night because it was already very late when i had dinner.
now, i'm half working, and half typing here. there are deadlines to meet next monday, but still a lot work pending. trying to clear as much today, so that it wont be so hectic next monday. aiya...say only lah. the star is buying us lunch, so i expect a few hours gone eating. and hopefully i will get one of the prizes from the lucky draw. anything is fine with me! i want!!!!
ok... back to work...
oh, by the way, it did rain on day 1 of cny. it rained on winter solstice day. so, the old saying is true indeed.
