Hey ho! Today is the 5th day of the CNY. Well every year is the same, nothing special.
It's more like a gambling festival. Had gathering with my relatives over the past few days.
RECESSION!Economic shrink. Number of ang bao shrink too.
Indeed, if at all possible we would implement the "five-second-rule" -
smile,
shake hands,
offer a new-year greeting and then
disappear. It takes all of five seconds before the inevitable question gets popped:
"So do you have a boyfriend?" Well, my answer is
NO and they'll continue:
"Are you sure?" My answer: "
Yes I'm VERY SURE!" Worst of all, some even asked:
"When are you getting marry?" I simply couldn't control my laughter.
The fault lies not in our stars, but in the unnecessary pressure on those among us who prefer to stay happily single, or who are happy to choose life partners at our own leisure.
My message for all: Don't force the issue. You're not helping the cause of true love, which is priceless and one which will take its own couse - in its own time.
