happy chinese new year!
typing this really quickly while waiting for my family members to get ready. we're heading back to my mum's hometown today, and i will be there all day - gambling, eating, gossiping. i will break away from all that in the afternoon - my uncle heads a lion dance troupe, and i like trailing them from house to house, with my camera.
its too bright and too hot. every morning i get shocked by the brightness of the sun. i've been eating too much - and it really isn't chinese new year if you're not stuffed to the max with food.
i grew up getting to know many interesting animals in my grandfather's house. he loves hunting. and he always comes back with weird pets. mostly because he shot the mother and found the babies. this year it was a flying fox. an awfully adorable, affectionate flying fox! i love eating their meat which has a very intense gamey taste. but after bonding with this little fellow, i no longer can eat them.
time to go, gotta dash. happy chinese new year all!
