It's that time of the year again when we all get together, eat loads of food and drink merrily, and dare I say it, gamble (for those inclined to do so of course). Everyone's busy getting new clothes etc, but for us this year it will just be pretty low key. We had an open house last year to coincide with our new house, but this year we won't have one cos it is just too tiring to have one. We haven't bought any new clothes as yet, but I think I will go buy some soon. Incidentally, this is off on a tangent, I bought a pair of running shoes a month or so ago while I was on a stopover in KK. Now I spotted this nice pair of shoes which I thought hmm, this looks good and feels comfy, so I bought a pair. 2 weeks ago I go to Hua Ho and saw the exact same pair so I decided to check out the price. CRAP. it wasn't the pricing that pissed me off. It was the fact that it was labelled as a Ladies running shoe. CRAP. Thing is, it is either labelled wrongly by Hua Ho or I just bought a pair of ladies running shoes (IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT BELONGS IN THE LADIES SECTION, OK!!!) So in any case I will continue to wear it and if you spot a guy wearing a pair of Adidas with pink puffy balls on the heel, that will be me.

This year is the year of the Fire Boar/Pig. Some have said it is the year of the Golden Pig so I am actually quite confused. Is it Golden of Fire? No idea, but I do know that for the Fire Dragon, the coming year is supposedly a good one for all of us born in 1976, and those born in the year of the Golden Pig apparently will lead a very lucky life. Our second child will be born in May so he/she should have a lucky and blessed life (we certainly hope so). However my brother did add that they will do so at our expense, i.e. the parents. Guess we'll just have to build that financial empire I have been talking to my wife about so we can support our kids!

Life is a busy as ever, and am enjoying my 'new' work so far. I am about to finish off with my Pusat Ehsan Video tribute which will be shown on an upcoming occasion the Pusat will be celebrating. I hope the video comes out as I intended (emotionally speaking of course). I just need to put up some final touches.

Signing off. To everyone who celebrates Chinese New Year, have a good one this year.
