Happy Chinese New Year!!!

Happy Chinese New Year I wish to you again! I hope you enjoyed your Chinese New Year holiday that you had last week. I am going to continue my previous blog.


I had done a lot of visiting on Chinese New Year. Too much that I have lost count. I became very tired from all that visiting. Although I am tired, I am very happy because I received a lot of ang pow/hong pow or also known as red packet.


On Wednesday, my mother decided to bring us to the Terengganu Palace(Istana Badariah) where my mother used to live at when she was young. We were only able to go in with the help of my aunt, who has a 'pass' to go in. My aunt has a 'pass' because she works for the ex-queen(I think that my aunt is SO lucky).


We went to the place that my mother lived, which is this small house. It might seem that her house would be grand, but no. My grandmother was poor and used to work in the palace last time. They had this really small house, with only one bedroom and toilet. It was nice to finally see the house with my own eyes after hearing all my mother's stories. It was very satisfying!

I am going to put in a few pictures:


This is a shot we took before we went to Istana Badariah. Let's just say that we are playing a fool.

I will put in the photos at Istana Badariah next time! I have to go now! Bye...
