CNY and short week with 3 guard duties in it.............

It is the annual chinese new year and a new year of the ox. But it is a sad opening to a new year with me doing guard duties 3 times this short week. Anyway, i already knew i was doing wednesday's complex guard duty which was on the third day of CNY. Anyway, there's still another which i volunteer in doing which was on the first day of CNY night which was a 12 hour shift as it was CNY. I thought i was not going to do another one but to my surprise, i found out last week on friday that i will be doing another guard duty on sunday( the seventh day of CNY). Seventh day of CNY is so-called another important day in the 15 days of CNY cause the chinese will celebrate the birthday of every born chinese. It is therefore known as human festival. So this year cannot celebrate with my family as i will be doing guard duty tomorrow for the third time in a week. As the guard duty thing settling down after a talk with our sgt that is planning it for us. Now the guard duty planned is more fair and we are all clear abt it. Anyway, i don really blame the sgt that much as on my part i also long time did not do a weekend duty lol. So this will be a short weekend for me as i will be booking in tonite. Anyway, hopefully there will not be any weekend duties for me in march. Or i will complain and see that something is done. Back to CNY, the ang baos collected was almost equal to last year's. This CNY, i planned carefully as i knew i had to do my duty in camp. So first day of CNY, my family and i went first with my 3rd uncle's family in his van to my 2nd aunt's house for a visit. After that, went to my grandma's place in toa payoh. Ya, all the morning, my family has been visiting relatives from my mother's side. After that, we went to my father's side relatives starting from my 2nd uncle's place to my grandma's place which houses her and my 6th uncle's family. After that, it is abt 5pm and we went back to my grandma's place(mother's) to collect my bag containing my stuffs of army which i left there earlier. My family also had dinner there. My family and i stayed there till it is time for me to go back camp for my guard duty. On the second day of CNY, i finished my guard duty and one of my sgts sent me home in his car. I reach home at abt 9.30am and after waking up the whole family. We started visiting again with visiting my first aunt's house(mother's) a few blocks away, the time was then abt 11am when we reach her house. After that, we went to my first aunt's house(father's) in redhill taking bus 132 from hougang bus interchange. Then after, we went to bedok for a visit to my second aunt's place(father's). After that, we decided it was time to go grandma's place for another visit. Anyway, it was almost a practice for my family to visit grandma's place 2 times in CNY. Anyway, in the end, we separated. My mother and i went to my mother's side grandma's place while my father and brother went the other side to the other grandma's place. In the night, my father and brother went to look for us and we were reunited before i went back camp for wednesday complex guard duty. So there's this year CNY for me. As for thursday and friday were normal days in camp. Book out yesterday night for this short weekend. Actually i planned to stay home as it was book in day for me today, but my torchlight was not working and i needed one for the upcoming outfield next monday, so in the early afternoon went to beach road to buy one before heading home. Anyway, my cousin came over to use my computer at abt 2pm. I saw him and talk before heading to beach road. I reach home abt 5pm after buying the torch and heard my cousin left my house at abt 4.30pm. Ya, this is my short weekend ba! Update again next weekend..........................
