Soon we will be in Muar at my Dad's place and the house which is normally just Dad and Mila will be noisy with most of the family. This time round, none of those overseas are coming back for the celebrations. So it is just Helen, Mary and Staffan; Peter, Siew Kee, Sarah and Victor; Richard, Dinah, Ben and Madelene; and us, the Goh family. Nonetheless, there will be 19 people in the house for the Reunion Dinner.

I'll be Home for Chinese New Year
It's that time of year again when we Chinese head home for the lunar new year. We travel on my 45th birthday, 2 days to the new year. These last 2 days, I spent doing little decorations in the house and garden. I also cleaned up the fish jars so that they are happy the next few days. The garden is nicely trimmed, the plants are doing well. Even the little bougainvillia plant has started blooming. Hmm... the simple things in life...
