HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone! x)

heh` well. this is it.
finally celebrating the new year with my parents.
hehe-
didnt really do anything much out cus' it was
FREEZZZINGG cold outside.
went out to get some last min groceries and
hurried home.
- 12 deg last nightt!! OMG//
its way too cold to bathe.
but had to of course.

gee. havta go visiting today.
like our chinese new yr except
they do it on the first.

but it differs.....
1) they start visitation at midnight. (gosh! its -14deg and up at late nights!!)

2)they prepare their table with sumptous meals.
-all the local armenian food.bread,all the meat, salads, cakes, fruits.

3) mostly only the women wears new clothes.

anyway,
aww- gonna have to go visit them later and tmr.
NNOOOOOOOO!!!!! i dont wana step out of the house anymoreee!
its almost like stepping into a freezer.
argh. actually, it wont be that bad if its not for the wind.
the wind is annoying.
it spoils the fun.
makes the face and hand numbb.
makes the skin peel all over.

hmm. guess im fattening up.
its WINTER. duhh.
eating almost every hr.
aha.

gee. dont like to go out too cus
i cant stay out in the cold too long.
end up vomitting.
madness- stil cant figure out why.

this place is too cold for me.
furthermore its on a mountain.
far up from sea level.
the air's so thin.
lack of oxygen.

hmm. but the food is not bad.
yummy.
haha.
but think i'm getting used to eating salty food.
everything we eat, we add salt.
heh.
especially love the soups here.
they're GOOOD.
but havta wait ages for them to arrive at the table
cus' its cooked as ordered.

hmm.
the pple here are really nice.
they set their tables with the best of what they have for the guest.
so sometimes my mum doesnt wana visit them otherwise they'll
have to spend a fortune just to set the table for us.
many of them are not rich yet even if its not the new yr,
they'll still ask us over for a meal.
and they'll say its not gonna be big but it always turns out a feast.
and we can't really invite them over cus' my parents are average cooks.
and i cant cook.
only just basic food to go past.
so when my mum asks them over, she cooks only her famous beehoon.
haha. that's the nicest home dish to eat.

anyway, gonna dress up and off we go..
