Gong Xi Fa Cai !

Yay! Its my favourite festive period again!

Chinese New Year (CNY) really affects my mood a lot. Hardly can find myself feeling down during this period. Most importantly, I don't have the mood to work starting from 3 weeks before CNY. Hahaha.

To me, CNY bears more significance over any other festive seasons.

Anyway, I've been kept busy cleaning up the house, trying to get it into the sparkling clean condition, fit enough for the God of Fortune to pay me a visit. (=

Over the next week or so, Lina and me will be busy going on visitations.

Here's wishing all of you a Happy New Year! May the year of the Dog bring all of you good health, unlimited wealth, prosperity and luck!

Gong Xi Fa Cai !

On a lighter note,

Alright, enough of all these Nokia BS. I think that whatever their reply, it won't matter because they reply for the sake of it. Unless they say they are willing to compensate me with another free phone of my choice, whatever they say doesn't matter to me.

As a Japanese would say, 'Shigata ga nai neh?'

On a lighter note, looking at Jaime's blog, one of her post inspired me to take pictures of my own hamsters.




In the first pic, a new robo couple lives in the tank on the left. They moved in on Monday afternoon. Still unable to think of any nice names for them. The two robos in the tank on the right are both males. Both their mates died some time ago so I guess they are buddies now.

There are more pics of my other hamsters which are stored in my acccount hosted by Photobucket.

Part 2: Their reply.

I'm not surprised with the way they replied. Merely a reply.
