Dear Diary,
First off, my blog is more than 1 years old >.< ! Wanted to post this on the day itself but that seems impossible now O-o. Anyways.... HAPPY CHINESE NIU YEAR! Year of the Cow HUAT AR! On Sunday, went out to have reunion dinner with my family and my relatives. Drank 3/4 cup of wine but the alcohol content is not that high
lar, so I'm not drunk =D.
Monday, went to temple to get blessings in the morning. After that headed off to another temple to pai pai. Joined in at my Ah ma house for gambling XD and dinner. No win no loss D=. I thought my luck had gone O_o as usually I win a few $$. Bettings range from 50 cents to $2. Kids blackjack only =].
Tuesday, wanted to go and attend a lion dance ceremony at my relative house but I turned it down due to lack of sleep. In the end, my parents and my brother waited and waited and it did'nt came LOL! They had to skip it as we had plans in another relative house. The lion dance troupe came after they left (suey) =D. I wasen't there and I grabbed a couple more hours of eye wink ^_^. To relative house where we play kids blackjack again. Lose $4. My luck just wasen't there D=.
Went down to watch to adults play si gi pueh (might have wrong spelling mistake) AKA 4 cards game. Basically, you have to pair up the 4 cards (known as the head and the tail) you have and make them the highest. A pair is the highest, followed by 9 and counting. If both have the same pairs then you see if your pair is bigger than the banker's pair. If both are same example, you have 5 pair and the banker has a 5 pair, banker wins. K, Q, J and 10 are considered as 0 and Ace as 1. If you still don't get it I'll explain it to you verbally next time.
Anyways, I did a side bet on my dad and win more than I lose. But the last few rounds took me back to the unlucky zone as I started to lose. In the end, I played the middle pai and won myself 1 round and a draw with the banker >.<>
In conclusion, totaly earnings = loss of $4 AGAIN.
Sigh.....
Went back to my other relative house to have dinner. After that watched the young ones playing PrivateMS...Kids >_>. Then they had a game of blackjack adult version $.$! But, maximum $5 XD, I still bet $2 haha! My auntie also lompang me $2 (like a sidebet) to win O_o. I don't want to go through the whole game but...
In the end, I won $20+ (cover up the $4 loss and $4 tips from my auntie for helping her win $$).
Haha, had a fun CNY. How's yours diary?
