My Spring did come....
In a few more days, it will be Chinese New Year again.
At this time of the year, I will be extremely busy.
Spring did come, but it will be .... spring cleaning!!!
Can't help but feel that most daughters will be physically 'abused' by their mom during this time of the year. =P
Mom will forever be breathing down my neck.
'.. after cleaning the room, help me carry more goodies from ntuc later.. then you need to... blah...
blah...
blah blah..'
All my sibings are married, so that left me the only one and young one to help her with the chores
It's either to scrub the floor in kitchen, or the corridor or.. well, i dun want to know.
This time of the year, mom will be extremely particular about every single speck of dust in the house, and how the plants must be displayed and placed at certain angle, and how you must transfer the cookies from the bigger container to a smaller one so that its freshness will be guaranteed and so on.
In the end, instead of looking neater, I have more containers placed on the table than before.
And on one side of the wall, a few photos of my family were nailed awkwardly in an attemped look good positions.
Some parts of the house were given a new brush of paint, but... err...
Did my dad paint the sockets on the walls with the white paint again, so that it will look white instead of yellow??
At the rate he is painting, I hope he has not painted my toothbrush white too.
And as I scrutinised the living room further, I saw 2 to 3 different pots of flowers being placed on the same cupboard at the same time.
Some vases even contained 3 to 4 types of flowers being 'decorated' together and their sizes and colors do not complement each other at all.
I thought my mom's taste is bad, but on second review, it was.....
My room was in a mess. Days of laziness of piling things onto my study table, has made it looked more like a shelf in the storeroom than a table used for studying.
All tables and cupboards need to be wiped and polished. The pine wood has already lost its shine.
And the shoppings that I have done... err... I am still trying to find space to squeeze them out of sight.
My wardrobe was already tightly filled with clothes, bedsheets, towels, and... more clothes =P
In order to accomodate the rest of my cardigans, I will definately need another basket to store them in.
And the piles of untouched newspapers in my room...
Arrgghh...........
As I was pulling out some boxes under the table, there were dust flying every where. I sneezed as if I have not done so for the last century as I am allergic to dust.
I was thankful that I was not a chamber maid. Otherwise with all the cleaning and the dust flying everywhere, I'll probably pull out my whole nose due to over blowing.
The favourite part of CNY is when I get to tie those little red strings onto the plants in the corridor and those in the house. It's like decorating a Xmas tree.
This coming new year, I hope the tv programmes will be good. For last few years, the movies shown were so old that I thought I was watching an historic clip taken during WWII.
Even my mom's hair looked better than maggie cheung's one in the show. =P
My Sunday is going to end soon. But I have more cleaning to do.
Am going to leave it till the eve to finish up then.
In the meantime, let me enjoy a few episodes of sex and the city...
hehe.
