its a rather funny combination.... to have valentines day fall on the same day as the first day of chinese new year.... of course, strictly speaking the first day of chinese new year was the first day of spring... which was on the 4th Feb 2010 this year.... lolz...

then again, a few years ago valentines day fell on the same day of the 15th day of chinese new year which was chap goh mei, also a day of love for the chinese community....

but i digress... how does one go about celebrating these two events?

as for me... having given up on valentines day, its easy... lolz... i'd must rather hang out with family and friends for chinese new year... of course, the lure of angpows is much bigger than spending money on a gift... although i've pretty much spent quite a bit for cny... which i do every year anyways...

this year just gives me a more solid excuse for not spending anymore on a gift of love.... ahahaha... although i've already bought the gift... wut a hipocrite.... hehehe.... well, my excuse was to lump both ocassions into one gift... heehee....

then again, retailers will do anything to sell their products.... its interesting.....

so how do you go about joining these two events into one day? spend the day with your partner then dinner with family? or spend the day with family visiting, then a candlelit dinner with your other half? hmm..... how about just bringing her/him home to visit the parents? this will prolly seal the deal....

if you're planning to propose, that makes it easier doesnt it? ask her/him to marry you then proceed to have dinner with the family and then announcing the good news? how cool is that....

anyhow, i look forward to the rest of the year... will the cupid come roaring into the year riding on a tiger or will a handsome angle flutter in with a kitty in his arms.... i'm interested to see...

wut do you think?

on an ending note.... i'll have to make time to blog out my holiday to bali soon....
