HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR to infidels, kafirs & heathens. Happy Holidays to the rest of you.

Just came back from the annual Chinese New Year's eve reunion dinner. Dinner was a few hundred ringgit, parking... RM2 and the after-dinner coffees... an exorbitant RM12 a cup (more expensive than Singapore). The company of my closest family however... priceless. And this being my first "tuen nin fan" (reunion meal) without my dad... it was doubly important that I be with family. I don't think I would have survived today being anywhere else.

So, with that...

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR and may the year of the rat bring you blue skies and all good things. KONG HEI FATT CHOY.
