HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!

Found this in forum some time ago.
Only selected some! The blue ones made me feel so sad!

In 1900, fathers prayed their children would learn English.
Today, fathers pray their children will speak English.

In 1900, a father's horsepower meant his horses.
Today, it's the size of his minivan.

In 1900, if a father put a roof over his family's head, he was a success.
Today, it takes a roof, deck, pool, and 4-car garage. And that's just the vacation home.

In 1900, a father waited for the doctor to tell him when the baby arrived.
Today, a father must wear a smock, know how to breathe, and make sure film is in the video camera.

In 1900, fathers passed on clothing to their sons.
Today, kids wouldn't touch Dad's clothes if they were sliding naked down an icicle.

In 1900, fathers could count on children to join the family business.
Today, fathers pray their kids will soon come home from college long enough to teach them how to work the computer and set the VCR.

In 1900, fathers shook their children gently and whispered, "Wake up, it's time for school."
Today, kids shake their fathers violently at 4 a.m., shouting: "Wake up, it's time for hockey practice."

In 1900, a father came home from work to find his wife and children at the supper table.
Today, a father comes home to a note: "Jimmy's at baseball, Cindy's at gymnastics, I'm at adult-Ed, Pizza in fridge."

In 1900, fathers and sons would have heart-to-heart conversations while fishing in a stream.
Today, fathers pluck the headphones off their sons' ears and shout, "WHEN YOU HAVE A MINUTE.."

In 1900, a father gave a pencil box for Christmas, and the kid was all smiles.
Today, a father spends $800 at Toys 'R' Us, and the kid screams: "I wanted Sega!"

In 1900, a happy meal was when Father shared funny stories around the table.
Today, a happy meal is what Dad buys at McDonald's.

In 1900, when fathers entered the room, children often rose to attention.
Today, kids glance up and grunt, "Dad, you're invading my space."

In 1900, fathers threatened their daughters suiters with shotguns if the girl came home late.
Today, fathers break the ice by saying, "So...how long have you had that earring?"

In 1900, fathers were never truly appreciated.

Today, fathers are never truly appreciated.

I've removed "Yes Man" and "Bedtime Stories" from the previous post because I watched it!

But, only half of "Yes Man" because the front part was boring so I went to Wikipedia to read the plot. And also, the loading takes forever! So I gave up!

Bedtime stories was quite nice (: Maybe 3.5/5?

Anyway, I just realised its one more week to chinese new year!

If you're gonna ask me "Have you buy your chinese new year clothes/shoes/accessories?"
My answer will definately be NO.

I think this is the first year I didnt buy any CNY apparels.

I HATE SHOPPING IN STORES UNLESS I NEED TO BUY SOMETHING AKA SHOPPING WITHOUT A TARGET. Eg. If I urgently need a pair of shoes, I will then go shopping. I WILL NEVER EVER WINDOW SHOP unless I'm already outside waiting for someone. I got this from my dad.

I HATE CROWDED PLACES. I got this from my dad too.

I REALLY DONT LIKE THE CLOTHES SOLD OUTSIDE...

I HATE TO SPEND SOOO MUCH TIME OUTSIDE BUT YOU ONLY BOUGHT 1 APPAREL!

So now you know why I online shop so frequently? I know the first reason has nothing to do with why I online shop so much because I actually just browse the website without a target and ended up buying stuffs. LOL.

And also, why do I still need to buy new clothes when I buy new clothes almost every month?! LOL.

.

This chinese new year is gonna be so special.

Firstly, some problems happened in my mother's family and I think you will never get this unless its a drama show. Its so funny and it doesnt make sense and saddening for my cousins.

Secondly, I persuaded my parents not to buy so much new year goodies because I dont really eat the new year goodies, I find most of it yucky. Plus, its always my brother whom finished the food and he's only coming back for 1 week from NS.

Thirdly, I decided to introduce one of the card games that Julie and Elijah teached me to all the adults, I think it's gonna be damn fun.

Fourthly, people will start asking about my results and schools and course which is SO IRRITATING.

Fifthly, my maternal relatives will be spending this chinese new year in a brand new house in Buangkok!

Sixthly, my house (for the first ever time in 7 years) is very very plain. Normally my mum would stick like 7 - 10 new year cards on a wall but now it only has 2. This means, we only received 2 cards O.O!

I think thats all. My family for the first ever time in 7 years árn't getting into the festive mood at all. I dont know why! Maybe because of the new year goodies... We didnt even buy the orange soft drinks (for the first ever time in 7 years) because I persuaded them not to.

Wait a minute, that means its MY FAULT?! O.o LOL.

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!

P.S 
I just bought 3 tees from Threadless.com a few days ago and it may arrive before CNY. So that means I bought CNY apparels? So that means I didnt break the record?
