Sunday, January 22, 2006 Well, having gone through CNY(Chinese New Year) for 16 years, I've learnt quite a lot of things about it. As a Chinese blog in English, let's learn more about CNY. I shall start the ball rolling. *ball rolls onto the road and flattens by an incoming lorry*   Many will know these are 春联(chun lian). But what are they for? My guess is that those are merely for decorations and good luck. LOL. Do you know why does CNY falls on a different day each year? If you know, I'll give you a 冰糖葫芦(bing tang hu lu) too! The other one for the "Hard word" has yet to be claimed. >.< AngPao  of 'cos the bigger the better!  "He is a fake AngPao! We are then the real ones!" the 10 AngPao cried in unison. On the eve of CNY, your parents will probably give you a red packet. It's 压岁钱（ya sui qian) to be placed below your pillow when you sleep. However, you shouldn't be sleeping that night! Not because you'll be busy gambling with your cousins, it's because the longer you stay awake the longer you are hoping your parents' lives to be. Eh? Am I not getting my facts right or what? If you want your parents to live longer, so you don't sleep, then put the angpao there for what? Correct me.. Everytime CNY will gamble with cousins. New game to play this CNY, 'in-between'. BIG MONEY! Or else, blackjack or DaiDee. The ball shall roll till here now. Be right back soon! Ciao!
