[Videos] Queensbay Mall CNY Decorations and Chinese New Year Eve's Reunion Dinner

Above is an awesome video shot by yours truly and the clips compiled into a movie. The decorations at Queensbay Mall were superb, with giant kois and even a water pipe with running water out turning a wooden wheel for fortune. Chinese New Year celebration is indeed a big occasion. It is celebrated yearly with loud bangs of fire crackers, giving out of "ang-pows" or red packets with money to the unmarried people, and young ones. It is time to rejoice and have some reunion dinner with the tossing of "yee sang" or salmon salad with crackers and honey.

See the video below, also done by yours truly.



Here are ordered food from "Foong Wei Heong Chinese Restaurant" during CNY eve. Let the video speaks for itself. Below is a nice Instagram picture of CNY eve's dinner theme where the family get together for meal fellowship.

Above is a video assembled by me with free chosen Chinese music that I gave credits to at the end of the video. Unfortunately for Instagram video, it was cut to only 1 minute at the most, unless it is IGTV where you can watch for a longer time. This was a series of photos and videos taken at Cititel Hotel during the 2nd day of the CNY. We also tossed yee sang, a small plate enough for the remaining 4 of us, since dad is with Jesus now. The CNY decorations were awesome and I took the liberty to snap a photo of the decor for posterity. It was a buffet lunch with half price for senior citizens. Mum's best friend and a church member, Eng Kooi, had passed away recently due to old age. According to mum, his wife went to bed early not knowing that her hubby had passed on in the sitting room by the next morning. It was a silent funeral, not many people knew about it and he was eventually cremated.

Anyway, CNY is supposed to be a happy occasion and I shall dwell on pleasing kinds of stuff this lunar year of the rat. Below are my pictures that you can take your time to swipe to the left by clicking on the ">" button on the right side of the photos of my Instagram account. I am aware I am not popular with some readers here and some of you may be stalking this blog of mine, but who cares? I cannot go around pleasing everyone. You are bound to make foes out of people especially when they see you doing well and want to imitate you but hate you at the same time.

Here are the pictures below: Enjoy my friends!

I was in Queensbay shopping mall yesterday and took the liberty to video record the awesome decorations of an ocean theme. There was a giant inflatable oyster with a shiny pearl, even the floor has an ocean theme and such. I was there during dinner time to drink avocado mixed with pineapple juice, and 'Hokkien' beehoon. I am also trying to lose weight, and have gone down to 72kg from 80kg. I still need to lose some weight for a healthier BMI. My doctor had advised me to avoid sugars and complex sugar like carbohydrates present in rice, bread, and noodles.

As you can see from the video, the decorations filled up the entire central atrium, with giant bubbles hanging from the ceiling and sea creatures with seaweeds and algae, etc. When I recorded this splendid video and put it on my Instagram account, I was followed by QueensbayMall Instagram. Apparently, they like my video of almost the whole decoration taken from the 2nd or 3rd floor, I cannot quite recall. Anyway, enjoy my work.
