2014 Chinese New Year in Singapore with Family

Parents touched down Singapore on 29/1/2014. There is this awkward feeling the short moments before meeting up with my parents, somehow is like you miss them a lot but they have been away, or should I say I have been away from Sabah for many many years already.

Technically, I left Sabah around 2006 to further my studies in KL, after that, never really spent solid time in Sabah. I guess probably I am not very keen with the environment there. The only thing worth mentioned is basically my parents, younger brother and aunty in Sabah. Of course, not to forget some of the few good friends I have got in Sabah. They have been very supportive all the while.

So technically, I have left KK (Kota Kinabalu) for about 7 years already. Time flies and I am still counting my years away from KK.

Back to the topic, so met them brought them around, met some relatives and have some few reunion dinner with them. I have to admit, entertaining people is not easy, in fact, it is downright tiring and cost me an arm and leg. However, I enjoyed every single moment of it. Being able to spend time with my dearest family is just pure happiness. Too bad, my younger brother couldn't join us this year. Looking forward for our next gathering in April.

I have learned a few things over the Chinese new year period, how is the family business doing in KK, how is the environment there, and how people in KK.  Catching up with parents are crucial, listening to them and most importantly spend time with them. I am very grateful to have such a supportive parents. They have been constantly nurturing me throughout, I feel very blessed indeed.

Basically, this meaningful Chinese new year is rather an enjoyable one. Of course, to add icing to the cake, we also made a bit of winnings from the casino. My dad was over the moon and brought the entire family to an expensive Korean cuisine in Vivo city.

Huat A!
