Mostly during christmas, the thing we look foward most to is the presents and christmas stuff rite?
Simple things like christmas decoration and a christmas tree is already sufficient.
My family usually doesn't have a christmas tree, so I really am excited when I see it. Maybe to you its just something there but it means alot to me.
In the past, when we were younger, we would get gifts by surprise and they would be nicely wrapped. Then really only until Christmas then we could open it.
But things started to change.
Last year, was a year I'll remember very vividly. The thing was that, my brother and me didn't really ask for anything cause we actually liked the surprise. Then we didn't ask for anything, and we didn't really get anything. For me, it was bcas I asked, this year no presents arh, then they say wat you want. I say guitar then they just buy and say this is your gift. Then my bro even better, never say that year no presents. Then he tell me he veh sad so I kinda like told my mother abt it, then she ask him wat he want. He say he wanted a lambourghini remote control car then end up cannot find. So, he just got 6 quite expensive pen ($3 at most) then that's all. AFTER CHRISTMAS.
Then this year, I just got an ice watch from them (note is them.) I know is quite expensive but then is like nont really their gift. Is just something I want. I like the fact that they actually chose the present and hope I like it and stuff. It meant quite a lot to me. Maybe I'm just a kid inside but yeah. Then my bro he only got a SHINee wallet. He doesn't really seem so affected but I'm quite.
You noe? Even CNY is nothing much to me. You know for most of the time, ppl look foward to it cos can earn money right? I usually don't get much. Like maybe $40 from each parent then no more. I always hear my friends complain that, "Aiya, this year only got $150+ (or wateva). So little." Then I'll be like, be happy. I dun get anything. You know the logic behind this? This way, we don't lose so much money. I shall make a senario...
K, my father gets $40 from his parents. My mother also. Then they give my father's parents $60 each.
They give me and my bro $20 each.
So we actually gave $120.
They gave $80.
So we lost $40. (PS, children must give parents more in a sense.)
BUT
If they took our $20s, they make up for the money they lost.
So is a gd situation.
So every CNY its like that.
How fun.
I look foward to nothing for CNY. And my parents also dun like. Hooray.
So next time dun tok to me abt the money you got. Kthxbai.
(I'm so shocked I got teary-eyed from the Christmas part. 0_0)
