Every year memang bisi stalls tu di gaga prior to CNY, but I never get to see what is so happening out there.. parking space are full, cars parked at the road-side enda iboh kira...aku blkg kedai meh parking "illegal", amai maioh mensia datai, ukai aja bangsa cina, bangsa laut, iban, tambi semua bangsa enda ngira anak mit, tuai, biak... bisi enggau kia.

It's Rabbit year... ko cina, sapa orang ke ada ba taun Rabbit tu.. panjai umur, pemalu enda maioh jako... amai nya kini?? mmmmm ko cina. Bah, nama enda meh nasip kitai ba taun Rabbit tu neey? Aku ada taun kuda... in 3 years time baru taun Kuda, taun 2012 (taun Dragon/Naga), taun 2013 (taun Snake/Ular) and taun 2014 (taun Horse/Kuda). From what I read this year manah meh nasip orang ke ada ba taun Kuda, let's see how true the prediction....

May this Rabbit year brings joy, peaceful, happiness, prosperity to all.. "Happy Lunar New Year 2011".
