I guess....one of the best part of Chinese New Year is probably the REUNION DINNER.... Not only you get to eat delicious home cooked food ....prepared kampung style. You can also get together with the other family members exchanging small talks as well as share hot gossips...etc.
But as one grows older, the significance of Chinese New year seems to be just like any ordinary day. The exciment and fun usually decreases. You no longer feel like wearing new clothes, neither do you enjoy lighting popping loud fire crackers in the neighbourhood....nor watching gaiety Lion dance troop.
When you no longer get the chance to receive "Hong Pao" after tying the knots....guess that's the reason why many adults don't enjoy CNY. Digging huge hole in one's wallet....forking out Hong Pao to the eagerly waiting children..!
However, ushering the Lunar New year still maintained it's importance in every Chinese lives.
