Happy Chinese New Year 🍊 🍊
Weeks ago, I told Xiuqi that she should invite me to her place for CNY and I would be there in a cheongsam. She thought I was kidding. Obviously not. I was dead serious about it. Even more serious about it the moment she texted me about making a CNY gathering.
It was soooooooo hard to find a cheongsam. Most of the cheongsam selling these days are the modern twist ones. They're basically normal dresses with the mandarin collar. So I made my way all the way to Chinatown to search for a real traditional one.
BUT OH GOD. I now truly understand why my Chinese girl friends are no longer wearing cheongsams during CNY. The one you see me wearing is already one of the larger ones. I would like to think I'm not THAT large. I have tried way too many cheongsams that are either too tight on the chest area or I can't even fit into one at all, thanks to my hips.
The moment I found one that I could fit... I bought it right away. Not thinking much.
Chun Li Style
This was the look that my friends wanted me to go for. I think I need to find new friends.
Kidding. I love them. My crazy fishballs.
We all have been too busy talking about school and how we're gaining weight at a very alarming rate. I'm just glad yesterday happened.
We stopped talking about school for a while and eat all we want. And then after a good 20 minutes of arguing on which movie to watch on Netflix, we settled on Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging.
A perfect way to end the night. Chick flick movies always bring you back to the wonderful secondary school days. I can't believe I thought the things I did when I was 14 was "cool" back then? Even now, I'm not any much cooler. But heck. Let's just wing this whole life. 💸
May this year be MY year. 🐶
More wealth, better grades and overall happiness. 💓
