Every year, well, almost every year, I would meet up with my sixth form school friends ever since we knew each other. That time, we would go door to door, wishing all our moms gong xi fa cai and receiving angpows. And then, we would hang out till the cows come home at night. Those were such fun times.
Eventually, the group gets smaller and smaller, but yet, we maintained meeting up, I think I would be there almost every year. From receiving angpows, we are giving out angpows now to the groups' little ones. What a long way we'd been!
Meeting in one of the guy's home, it's like I had almost grown accustomed to his family as well. I know his parents and his sisters like how I know him and they would seemed so happy to see me. It makes me very happy seeing their happy faces.
Every year, I would be there alone leaving the kids with my inlaws with their papa. This year, I brought them all along and it felt great, showing them off. Didi received praises on how charming he is. The kids just clicked almost instantly, playing scrabble and chess. And then out of a sudden, we heard a loud glass breaking sound coming from where my hub was seated and everyone turned instantly to look at what happened. He had broken 2 window panes from the vibrating massage chair he was sitting on! Oh shit!
