Edition 287 – Chinese “牛” Year Eve

Well, that’s the pun that has been played by plenty of people for this CNY, so I thought I’d tag along.

I’m back in Penang to spend the New Year’s with my family. Unfortunately, it’s an incomplete reunion this year because my sister is stuck in Australia doing her thesis. But nevertheless, we’ve just finished a fantastic dinner (pictures to follow, no Photoshop to edit) and am now sitting right in front of the tube watching some CNY programs and sipping champagne. Ah… Life….

A short aside… I was reading a newspaper article a few days ago that was reporting on the ongoing project to provide free WiFi to the island of Penang. Good initiative right? But guess what… People are actually protesting the move. Why? Because they claim that the radiation produced by the WiFi hotspots will be detrimental towards health… I was like, “What the……..???” Free Wifi still don’t want. I can still remember how excited I was when Wireless@SG was announced. Can’t understand people sometimes… Sure will have things to complain one…

Anyway, back to the festivities. Tomorrow will be a whole day of visitation to various relative’s places. Hope the weather will be cooperative and be like today; cloudy. Pray for a good “harvest” this year. Haha….

Well, that’s all for now. Here’s wishing one and all a Happy Chinese New Year. May God bless this year for you and your family. Until the next time, cheers… :Þ
