27/9

I've witnessed so many chinese traditions that I read in a book or watch in the TV regarding chinese weddings. Some woke up at 6am to 'jiap xim niu'/ 'welcome the bride'. I couldn't be bothered to 'jiap' so I just went to the broom's hse and waited for the new weds to arrive that was accompanied with the thunderous continuous chinese firecrackers exploding.

Bla3 need to 'pong teh'/ 'serve the tea (to someone)'. The new weds' uncles and aunts have to drink the tea served by the new weds. Then photo sessions with each family. So hot and sleepy and tired.

Then at the night, it's my birthday party, again. But hey, this is right on the day (n the chinese birthday man, it's incredibly rare mates!) Then we went back home to cook the mi sua and an egg that we have forgotten.

But I ate the egg late cz I didn't boil the first one hard enough. It has passed 11pm when I ate it, which by chinese culture, it's the next day.

Pretty happy, might be the happiest eventful birthday I have ever had.
