In a busy supermarket, you know it's Chinese New Year when loud Chinese New Year songs are blasting through the speakers; adults are panickly stocking their shopping carts with crates of beverage and junk foods; and long queues by the cashier dotted with sour faces because the cashier is too slow to check out all the grocery item prices.
It happened to me the other day when I was buying grocery for myself in Aeon, Sunway Pyramid. I forgot CNY was near and I had to wait in the long queue just to purchase a few packets of vegetables. Bear in mind, everyone in the queue had a trolley full of junks and CNY is still like two weeks away. Ok, maybe it's wise of them to stock up first but it just made me slightly pissed at the festival.
The festival is always hectic, even for me because I had to help out with chores. And then I have to visit all my parents' friends, not to mention my annoying extended family members.
In summary, I have mixed feelings about CNY. Seem to have mixed feelings about a lot of things lately.
Anyhow, ciaoz :3
