新年穿新衣
>> Sunday, January 28, 2007
Friday was Papa's birthday. We bought a Chocolate Fudge cake for him. And we bought a small cheesecake for nengjie too because he didnt get one on his birthday which came soon after school started. =) Happy happy. The cakes were so nice.
I think we should celebrate everyone's birthday because it might be the last chance we get to do it. =)
You know? Chinese New Year is coming. And as 李白 says, 去旧迎新,新年穿新衣. I want to buy new things!
I want to buy a lot of new clothes and shoes and bags. T-shirts, shirts, pants, jeans, sports shoes casual shoes, school bag etc etc. Its never enough!
I want to buy a clock radio to wake me up. And also to listen to radio because I have been so tired to listen to music. Plus I dunhav a working mp3 player now cause my brother just spoilt my already spoiling ipod mini which Borat says is for girls.
I want to get some nice Marukan treats for my girls.
They have been eating the smelly dry mix and sunflower seeds plus alot of fresh fruits that I cut from those I eat. I want to give them goodies for CNY! If not I can get toys or a hamhead to add variety to their world in the 2ft tank.
They are called hamhead for a reason. Because they look like heads of hamsters. Hamsters love to hide in these little holes. And the best thing is, they only costs $2 at Daiso! =)

=) Bet you all guessed it. I have no money! :) But I am expecting a New-Year-Buy-New-Clothes fund any time soon. Plus angpow money (which usually is a pathetic $100+ sum), I believe I will finally get to buy some stuffs! ;)
Will need to prioritise and spend my money wisely :). I know this is life. You don't always get all of what you desire or need. (Unless you are super rich which I advise u to press Alt-F4 right now because i hate u) (but nevertheless rich people still cant get everything they want... because of the... u noe... somethings-are-priceless thing) (I should stop writing in brackets, sentences in brackets are supposed to be un-impt :]) So as i say, we don't always get what we want because it could be too expensive or too valuable for you to afford, or it could be taken away by someone else before you do. =(
Hehehe.
Anyway, I saw this very cute campaign poster on newspaper:
Cute hamsters running around! Wee. These posters are on ZOcards. Wonder where to get them?? =)
But the message is more important! Don't get these little rats just because u think its cute because they live for at least 2 years. Thats 2 years of commitment! Omg 2 years of feeding the rats daily, cleaning their tank regularly, buying their housing, toys and food regularly, taking care of them when they are sick and playing with them regularly. Thats a lot of work!
Remember the Luohan fish craze, when everyone bought those fishes because they are supposed to bring good luck. And not forgetting that they say the prints on the fishes will give 4D-numbers, which I think is crap.
Then the craze was over. Where did these fishes go? They are abandoned into lakes and reservoirs or go down the drain, no pun intended. My father for example let free his Luohan fish in the pond in front of a church, which is not only an unsuitable habitat for it, but also... wont it be weird to see Luo Han fishes in front of a CHURCH?
Ok nvm. My point is, be committed to any pets you buy. They are cute, but they need care and love too. Must treat them like your friends!
Ok?
