HAPPY NEW YEAR!

i spent my last day of 2008 at pa's fish farm in limchukang. together with many many people. very close relatives, close relatives and not so close relatives. haha. actually it was because there is this prayer thingy that we have to go through once every seven years if i'm not wrong. reached the farm in the afternoon. some of my cousins were already there. initially, it was a bit boring. but soon, more and more people came. by about 10pm, there were many people. a lot of small kids. probably around 20? the place was like a child care centre with little children running here and there. i celebrated the new year with my cousins. we gathered and brought the box of party poppers to the gate of the farm. didnt really count down to 2009. i think we missed the time. hahaha. so we just popped, played around and took some photos. so fun to be with them man. the prayer started at about 1am. and lasted till 4+, 5am. everyone was so tired. many went back home after it. i stayed with some cousins. slept from about 6am to 8am. went out for a walk to another farm nearby, wandered around and came back. those who went home came back too. though the prayer was over, there was still a 10-course lunch. 13 tables. many many many relatives came. more than last night i guess. the offerings for the prayer were distributed and soon many left. we, being the host, stayed behind to clear the stuff and left only in the late afternoon. reached home at 6+ just now. so tired.

yesterday's countdown was totally awesome man. at limchukang. ulu ulu place. it had been a long time since i last went there. everything is still the same. nothing has changed much. the cousins have become closer than before. yeah. there's plan to have a singing session together in feb. i'll be meeting them again 2 days later. coz one of them is getting married. my 好表哥. the couple have been together for 8 years since poly. woo. looking forward to 3rd. we gonna have fun together man. tmr will be fun too. meeting up with 1007 to play volleyball. yeahyeah.
