not really very enthusiastic towards CNY this year. but still did my spring cleaning, surpassing myself by cleaning one of 2 toilets. haha and my mother surpassed herself in decorating the house. i don't believe i ever saw so much red in and out of the house, but it does create a very festive mood. =)

food wise though, we've bought less, and tried not to go for too expensive foods. not going to do much entertaining, so actually, simple is good.

got a new altar and a new sofa, and threw out quite a lot of clothes and clutter. so all in all, it's quite a promising start to a new year!

happy new year everyone! hope you have lots of happiness and good health! =)
