The Long Weekend

I am sure everybody looks forward to long weekends like what we just had in Malaysia, in conjunction with the Chinese New Year. This year, I feel the Chinese New Year celebrations were rather quiet. There weren't many of the Lion dances nor the firecrackers (I know these are banned, but it never stopped them previously). My Chinese family didn't really celebrate, due to the death of an aunt on the day itself.

The break was sooo good; although most of the time I was playing catch up with the housework, did a bit of reading, and a little office work.

Basically we stayed home, apart from the visit to a friend's house on Monday. Now, I'm looking forward to next weekend! Maulid weekend.

Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony -- Mahatma Gandhi
To see ourselves as others see us, it would many a blunder save us -- R. Burns
It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge - Einstein
A smile is a curve that straightens out everything.
If you look for what you need, you will find what you want.
They say, what say they, let them say -- Oscar Wilde
If you try to better yourself, you're bound to make the odd mistake -- Goethe
When one door of happiness closes, another door opens. But we often look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us.
