[Volume 8 Issue 2, #1676]

昨日元宵過後, 農曆新年正式曲終人散喇, 大家今年派咗或逗咗幾多封利是呢?? 我尚係正印「花仔」一名, 當然繼續享有逗利是嘅權利啦, 感謝各路親朋戚友派俾我以上嘅利是(雖然今年感覺少咗好多封, 哈哈!!).. 講到利是, 我有一個習慣, 就係會將父母俾嘅利是收起到下一年, 今年係拆舊年佢哋俾嘅利是.. 以此類推, 即係話父母永遠都有封利是陪住自己, 長長久久.. 其實真係冇咩特別意思, 就係咁多年嚟嘅一個習慣, 咁做我有種為父母積福嘅感覺.. 呢種做法當然係完全冇根據啦, 不過真係感覺良好㗎, 好似為佢哋做啲嘢咁囉.. :)

after chap goh meh last night, it means the chinese new year is officially over, how many angpows have you given or received this year?? i am still a "flower boy" (this is how the chinese call unmarried guys regardless their age) so i receive angpows instead of giving of course, thank you all relatives and friends for the angpows above (though it seems i have less this year, haha!!).. talk about angpows, i actually have a habit to keep those given by my parents until the following year, so the current year is opening the angpows given the past year.. and so on, meaning there will always be angpows from them with me all the time, until eternity.. no special reason but just a habit, doing so i feel like i am indirectly blessing them.. of course this is not any tradition but it does make me feel good, as if i am doing good merits for my parents.. :)
