This year, I’m finally a qualified “contestant” to be
sitting side by side with all my relatives on the “poker-table”.
How unfortunate but the news is that,
lady luck hasn’t exactly been smiling gleeful in my direction.
So I ended up with a “budget deficit”. Lol.
But it’s ok, to console myself I tell myself:
CNY extends over a period of 15 days.
The fortune might just start rolling in a little bit later.
So I won’t give up just yet, I will TRY harder. Hahaha.
