My Happy New Year (YSN)


I am so lucky because of your company, my dear friend.
Having looking forward to the Chinese New Year for such a long time, I don’t want all the activities to be staying at Eton Hall and surfing the Internet. Because almost all the shops are closed on lunar January 1st. it seemed that all of our plans would run aground. However, we decided to go out to try our fortune.
We went to Bugis. To our surprise, there were so many shops that didn’t close. Actually, we were excited about so many beautiful and cheap things. We bought and bought crazily, laughing all the way. What’s more, we found a small restaurant selling authentic malatang(A kind of food. I don’t know how to translate it into English.) Two Sichuan people ran the restaurant. We were so glad to talk with them. Frankly, that was the first time that I had had such a delicious meal in Singapore.
Our tour didn’t stop. Actually, that was only the beginning. What impressed me most was the time spent on Orchard Road. Most shops were closed, you know. But we had bought enough. The two of us just wanted to take a walk. Orchard Road was quiet and charming at night. We went into all the shopping mall to take photos. We ate all the delicious food we saw. We tried on all the beautiful clothes we liked. We sang all the songs we could sing. We talked all the topics we came up with…
We didn’t come back until over 11 o’ clock. But we didn’t felt tired. Although this is the first Chinese New Year that I didn’t spend with my family, I still felt happy. It is special. It is crazy. It is lucky because of you. Looking at the couples each holding a bunch of rose, I didn’t admire them. Conversely, I cherish the time we spent together more. I would never forget it. If possible, I would like my next Spring Festival to be spent with you, too.

  6. At first I have to say I am not surprised after reading your blog. I think you are really a shopping nerd. Every time I saw you there are only two possibilities: you are going to shop or you just came back from shopping. I am happy that you have a good new year. But I think you made a mistake that you should use "accompany", not "company".

  7. You sound very happy, shopping, enjoying good meals and most of all being with someone you like very very much and who likes you in the same way. it is always people who need people who are the happiest people in the world, not materials things. It's wonderful that you have found such a friend.
