This week is gonna be really short for me since Thursday and Friday (7-8th February) are the 1st and 2nd days of the Chinese Lunar New Year, and hence are public holidays for me. I took leave on Monday to help Mom with spring cleaning, and I’m taking another day’s leave tomorrow, which is the eve of Chinese New Year (all because my company’s management is trying to be secretive as to whether they’ll release us early for the day). So in short, today is my one and only working day this week. Woo hoo!
Since this is the only working day for the week, I promptly popped over to the Ikea near my office to do some last minute shopping for Chinese New Year goodies and to check out their daily special, which happens to be Sambal Fish today (just right for my early start in Lent). Luckily I managed to grab the last bottle of Nonya Love Letters before they were completely sold out. I also got myself a bottle of Pineapple Tarts. Phew!
I just received a Red Packet from my manager (surprise surprise), so it looks like this is gonna be a good new year for me. Better be good and get back to work.
Meanwhile, Happy Chinese New Year and Happy Ash Wednesday (does anyone say that?)!
