First day after CNY holiday. pretty quiet at work, both bosses were away. People were more relaxed. I happily went round the office (with reasonable limit, of course) and greeting everyone a good year. Got a few lai sees. All $20s. Even the one from office. Mean, yes. No surprise, yes. Same as last year.

Spoke to bb a few times :) she's pretty busy. I was ok. That stupid Richard played God again - telling me to do this and that and after I have done them, he'd be happy to look at them for me. I thought, "That's very kind" in a sarcastic way. He's so arrogant.

bb and I agreed to watch movie this weekend. We also agreed on the venue, Sunday for 2:30pm. As I'd be tied up for other things on the following evenings before then, I dropped by the cinema to get the tickets. Unfortunately, they only sell tickets 3 days in advance, which means I could only get those tickets on Friday the earliest. That include sale on the internet too. What shall I do? I'll be tied up in the following evenings !

Just went I got through the main door, I could smell Jasmine. I've been sitting in front of the tv tonight, surfing. There's soft breeze tonight. I could smell Jasmine from where I'm sitting, delivered by the soft breeze. How lovely, soothing and relaxing. I love it. Most of the flowers are opened now. It's been very warm in the last few days. I always get Jasmine during CNY when they are available in abundant. This year, I also bought Chrysanthemum. Purple and orange. I thought the colour would crash, but somehow they sit and compliement each other very well. It certainly adds to the mood of CNY.

Been thinking of where to go with my parents. Bangkok? Onsen? I feel a little uneasy going with them. I am no good at taking care of people. Worse still, I am so used to going with bb, who's smart, has an excellent sense of direction and great memory especially where streets and roads are concerned. Now, she's not coming and I have two dependents ... !

Finished the rest of bb's cooking - chicken coq en vin and roast potato - a portion that's probably enough for both of us. Then I had some sweet CNY cake from mum. I could think of one word now. Three letters. Fat.

Got an sms from sf. He just got back. Meeting up tomorrow afternoon. Would he have got me the book from Morrie himself that I dropped a hint? Probably not. :P
