first chinese new yr away from home

chinese new year away from home seems veri un-chinese new yr... the feeling of having to work on the first day of chinese new yr sux... it jus feels like any other normal wkg day... being overseas made mi treasure chinese new yr in sg more... more festive feel... with all the ang baos n chinese new yr goodies... over in sydney, some chinese dun even celebrate cny... n i haf chinese colleagues telling mi tt "ohh.... reunion dinner?? we din haf it cos we were all wkg late...." how weird can this get??? chinese not celebrating cny and not hafing reunion dinner cos they haf to work late??!?! culture differences.... same skin colour, same roots but growing up in a different country is wat realli moulds u....

but one happie thing abt cny away from home is tt we still haf "Lao Yu Shen" here!!! although it's super expensive... but it was a yummy dinner n yu shen.... everione looks sooo happie... we had dinner n yu shen at "Ginger and Spice"... the authentic must-try singaporean food restauratnt in sydney... yum yum!!
