Imlek

Kemarin gw sekeluarga (without my dad, he's not feeling well) mampir ke rumah saudara-saudara mama, kami merayakan Imlek. Yup, meski sebagian orang berpikir gw orang Batak atau Manado, gw sebenarnya keturunan Jawa dan Tionghoa Padang. It's very fun to have a family that celebrates Idul Fitri, Christmas, Suro and Imlek. You get the best from every worlds.

Anyway, kami hanya datang ke beberapa rumah, tapi angpaonya lumayan. Ada saudara yang memberikan angpao 1/4jt. Cool. Tapi beberapa orang ga memberikan gw angpao karena "Thomas kan udah kerja." Duh, dulu waktu gw di awal-awal kerja, gw selalu bt dibilang begitu. Gimana ga bt, total angpao yang diterima adik-adik gw bisa setengah gaji gw sebulan!

Mama ga mengijinkan gw memberikan angpao, katanya pamali karena gw belum menikah. That's fine with me :-)

Anyway, for those who celebrate, Happy Chinese New Year! Gong Xi Fa Cai! Zhu Ni Yong Yuan Ping An, Xingfu, Jiankang, Hao Yun He Kuai Le! (I don't understand the words, but it must be something good)
