“Dear resident,
If on 年初一,your room is
messy, it’ll be messy thro’out the whole year. So, if you want a clean clutter
free room for 2012, please do your final cleaning up B4年初一. Ok.

Even though
I obviously am reluctant to clear my room, I still find it very amusing that I
should find this note on my table, written by guess-who and left for me to read
on Friday afternoon. And for the record, my room has not improved very much
since then. I mean, I really think there are things far more important than
clearing my room!
SIGH. It’s
such a psychological thing, when we have 4 days of holiday, and it seems long
compared to the usual 2 day weekend, and then they each start piling us with a
little more work than usual, and all the ‘little more’ becomes ‘a whole load
more’, and bear in mind we only have 4 days, taking into account time spent
getting ordered around the house for spring cleaning and dinner preparations,
time for visiting relatives and friends, we have hardly any time left to focus
on work.
4 days is
such a short time! I didn’t even have this much homework for the whole year end
holiday!
This is so
not my style. I should stop complaining and go sleep.
Happy
Chinese New Year (Eve?) Everybodeh!
