Happy New Year Pull Your Ear
Sunday, January 29, 2006
I'm like super obsessed with this phrase now.. haha.. Started after the CNY at Hwachong when I just suddenly mumbled it and it stuck with me since.
It sure was a bad end to the year.. with me skipping all my lessons just to go back Hwachong.. go swimming.. But was worth it though. Though the Hwachong street market lost its appeal to us (I didn't dare eat anything those young kids made.. yucks).. the Mass Dances were still as fun as ever. And we were the only batch of council that went back! Didn't even see the 30th, 29th or 28th.. tsk tsk tsk.. we are the legend.. hah.
The exact amount of the laptop repair turned out to be $1152.. w/o GST. Don't know to be happy or sad.. happy coz it's justifiable to repair it.. I mean if the cost were close to $2K then i'd rather buy another one... but still $1K is still a ridiculously hefty sum to fork out for a freak accident (was it even called an accident?)....
So it's the new year again.. the Year of the Dog again some more. It should be a happy thing coz my own Year (I'm a Dog too) comes once ever 12 years and the wait is finally here. But well..seems like the Year of the Fire Dog spells bad luck for other fellow dogs.. and it's like the hardest hit among the 12 signs. My mother told me not to take it too seriously but it kinda sucks to start the new year knowing that it will be bad (think: laptop repair bill). And the only advice the geomancer can say is "Bathe more. Swim more."
I'm born in the year of the Water Dog. Hope this keeps my Fire counterpart this year in check.
Still.. IT'S A JOYOUS OCCASION! So here's wishing you all...
HAPPY NEW YEAR PULL YOUR EAR!!!
