And in an instant, the CNY festive holiday is over. Did you guys collect loads and loads of red packets? Mine was not as much as before. And it's not because people started to think that I'm an old man who is supposed to have married. It's because of the passing on of relatives last year and thus majority of my family members are not allowed to give red packets. But it's okay, since the main idea of CNY is to allow long-lost relatives to meet up, gather and catch up on old times. Erm, maybe it's the red packets for us kids la.
But anyway, I've been gambling these few days and luck has been not on my side. Maybe it's shining on my backside because I lost a whopping $42 by playing 50cents blackjack in a day. Can you believe it? And that exact same day, my mum won $68 being our dealer. She insisted that her luck was good thanks to the bird who shit on her after our dinner at AMK S-11. Oh well, now trying to jio mahjong sessions to recuperate my losses.
Today was Grandma's birthday and we had high-tea at Carousel, Royal Plaza on Scotts. The buffet selection was decent, the quality was decent, but it's not very value for money. In addition, the timing for our meal was restricted to 3.30pm to 5.30pm. So it was rather rush for us. Personally, I like the laksa and the salmon sashimi there.
With that, I shall sign off and look forward to this Friday.
