the tail of 2011 has barely slid into hibernation and i was hurled into cleaning out to prepare for CNY.
To us Chinese, CNY is a huge affair (used to be more so when I was a kid) - Packing away old clothes for donation, clearing out clutter, storing away knick knacks we no longer need, and major dusting and cleaning.
I have been nagged and bugged at already :p - to trim my hair (I missed the golden window last week and now we need to book in a slot for this week); to buy new bright colored clothes (in my opinion, I shopped and bought so much these 2 weeks both in and out of SG but none of my purchases fulfilled the standard of "bright colored"); to buy new year goodies for parents.
To date, I've polished the mirrors, packed wardrobes, cleared out old clothes for donation, cleaned the dust off cabinets...
Next CNY, I will need helpers. And we'll have to make sure there's enough lead time to cater for "within-a-month" festivities like Christmas and CNY.
