Gong Xi Fa Cai!

Happy Chinese New Year to everyone!!

We Malaysians in Lyon are doing a little gathering for lunch today, steamboat is on the menu! Some of the Malays haven't tried steamboat before. There will even be 3 Malaysians coming from Grenoble to join us. The big Malaysian cny gathering will be in Tours next weekend...but I won't be there... (you'll find out why ;) )

Last night we did a smaller gathering among Chinese (actually among those of us who stay near INSA), I suppose it can be considered our reunion dinner... I learned how to make onde-onde :P (I didn't know it was so simple!) After eating we played cards... we even had stacks of casino chips (4 colours) so we had a real gambling atmosphere. I even won a whole lot of chips (I was the big winner at the end :D ) Unfortunately it wasn't real money! lol I believe we played for more than 6 hours, maybe more...it was 4am when we went home!

Surprisingly I woke up quite early today...9am without an alarm! Wonder why... :P
