Sorrow of The Lunar New Year

I remember the days, back in my homeland
When I visited my relatives, played with my friends, cousins
and the best part was getting red packets.
I could even remember the highest amount collected:
1997, S$800++, but in rupiah.

This year, 2005, not even $150 collected.
all I did for CNY was sitting in my house, which i call a prison,
the only place i visited, was my neighbour.

CNY, 9-10 Feb, dad was out of the house for the 2 days.
Family rejoiced, celebrated the absence of freaking dad.
Visited so many people, at least,
got to visit one relative. I was so happy.
So happy in fact, I forgot about my dad.

Dad come back, shouts... AGAIN -_-
The sorrow continues.

Just when, o when, will my dad be gone??
or when will he ever change for the better.

i know its quite 'unhealthy' to compare with classmates about angpaos. but I think im the only one in my class who has the lowest amount collected. and of course that sucks. how can i save for my new handphone????????????????????????

most have 600 bucks++, highest i know was 900++, almost 1k. i just dunno where to hide my face. erm, maybe the toilet is a good idea?? any hands up??

aarrgghh... used to look forward to CNY all the time, but it actually sucks to celebrate CNY, especially in the presence of my dad.

i cant believe im actually blogging this up. this is so embarrassing. but i want everyone to know about my dad, so that maybe anyone out there, can help me, in some way, anyway.

please, anyone.

i'm turning into a Baudelaire.
