New Year Enlightenments


Some lessons that I've learned over the multiple dinners:

• Do not over eat! Granted you didn't have dinner yet but remember that you are eating from 11pm and beyond.
• Never drink consecutively 2 bowls of (hot) shark fin soup and then 2 bowls of (cold) red bean soup with tapioca balls. I learned that one the hard and ugly way...
• When forced to eat "things" that you would never normally eat, just remember that it could be worse, you could be eating the things they have on Fear Factor.
• It's okay that I don't engage in spring cleaning because before the new year arrives, I need to do a massive cleaning everywhere.
• As long as you are not married, you won't have to give out lucky money and can always receive it. So word to the wise, stay single and bring home the moolah!
• Never stay at the dinner table when most of the family has become tanked from the wine. They tend to engage in perverted conversations involving dirty jokes and stories. Well unless you want to seek years of therapy for the horrible scarring, then stay and enjoy!
