Dong dong Qiang!

Yeah! Djokovic won Australian Open! Although I did not watch the match, but I have been supporting him since I ever stopped watching tennis matches. I hope I will pick it up someday but my dad occupied the TV 24/7. I could even barely watch anything from the TV unless he had fallen asleep. But it rarely happens because he is a retiree and TV is all his life wtf

Anyway, one week passed so fast and I will be meeting my colleague. Everyone will be catching up each other's CNY stories. I believe the 7 of us who were working in the office don't have much stories to share wtf..

Oliver did not go back KK for CNY mainly because his parents are on holiday to Harbin! So jealous that they got to witness beautiful ice sculpture. However the weather there is minus 30 degrees! Siao one! I don't want myself to look like nasi pulut there. He had reunion dinner with my family. He was bored because I am bad in social ones. So I love to stuck myself at the old people to hear stories. I prefer to listen instead of mingling around with my cousins talking how cruel to eat shark fins. wtf But I am SEATED with the younger ones, so Oliver and I were commenting how some of my cousin nieces are cute and one of them, we confirm she will become a bitch. She has full of bitchiness in her personality and rolling her eyes at this age is so inappropriate. Oliver and I had stamped her forehead -BITCH-

Started my day with bai nian with my mom. Not my dad. We were caught up in a huge argument just right before CNY. Sigh! My dad totally acts like a kid. Why when the men gets older, the more stubborn they are!
While my first thing to put RM2 in a angpau packet for Ah Ben
I was digging hard in my old mooncake box and finally got this fish angpau from last year. Inside still have RM50 from don't know who wtf! 
Ah Ben loves fish because he's a BEAR!

Us during the first day of CNY to watch Ah Beng the movie!
I know Ah Jib Kor supported this movie, but my mom wants to watched it and I gotta be a filial daughter
We were the first one in the cinema
And gotta camwhore on it wtf..

The movie obviously has lower budget compare the previous 2 one. Not that good as compare as the first movie on the tiger dance though. It just became worse and worse. Today I watched I Love HK 2012 and it was okay too. Why CNY movies aren't as good as last time?
Saw lion dance in The Gardens while shopping
LOL on the kids who was trying to kick the lions!
  
I was wondering why the lion dancers has to sleep on mandarin oranges like chicken laying eggs wtf
 
 Chinese restaurants are usually not open during CNY and we settled ourselves in my familiar restaurant Chilis
I have never came back to Chilis Midvalley after I stopped working here
It feels so good to come back to a place once you loved so much but the people around here are different. Services significantly dropped so much and I was utterly disappointed on the service.

 Tried something new
It was grilled chicken with portobello mushroom served with peppercorn sauce
Love love bacon cheese mashed potatoes. They are my favourite side dish ever!
  
Oliver's Beef Bacon Burger
Thanks mama for the lunch! She insisted to pay and luckily she managed to pull out her credit card LOL

 Second day was all about bai nian with my relatives. Met my relatives' dog who was dying soon. They told us this will be the last time we will be seeing him. So sad! We grew up together and seeing each other since 1995. I remembered he loves me massaging him and he is the only dog I would touch. Fish die I also cry, if I have a dog, I would cry until fi li fe leh.. 

Third to Fifth day of CNY. All about working. I enjoyed alot working because I know my manager more and more. My manager told me to belanja her makan for writing my appraisal form, recommended me to audit on the construction company, handling bigger companies and promoting 2 levels. Seriously, without my manager, I would not have learn and experience so much compare to my other colleagues.

 On Saturday, we went to Pavilion to hunt for my sister's nursery bag

 YES! We are expecting a dragon nephew/niece in this June!
Why does it have to be Gemini babies? I don't get along with Gemini!
Ignore my 12+12years old tummy
It is a long term assets wtf
Always love Pavilion's CNY decor
Had lunch at my favourite Chinese restaurant Ding Tai Fung
It was my sister's first experience, she was surprised by the service too!
No wonder Singapore's branch could win Michelin star
Thanks to my manager who recommended me. It was her all-time favourite Chinese restaurant too!
 Their famous Xiu Long Bao
Still prefer Dragon-I's xiu long bao
 And my favourite Beef Braised Noodle
The soup is so thick and I never stop slurping on the soup

The food is delicious and so as the bill. RM75 for 3 pax. To think about the superb service and delicious food, it worth every penne.

To end this post, hope everyone has a great working day ahead. Wednesday is a holiday who works in KL!
Happy Chinese Dragon Year from Ah Ben!
