Chinese New Year 2016

Chinese New Year

        On Sunday night (7/2/16),me and my family went to my grandma's house.This grandma is my mom's mom.When I arrived there, I greeted everyone. First, we had dinner together and talked with each other. There was one specific activity that was fun and to be honest quite stupid and you'll find out why it's stupid soon. That activity was when my uncle challenged me and my two other cousins that are quite the same age as me to drink beer and whoever finishes the beer fastest wins.The first round, I did quite great at the first few minutes but suddenly my other cousin drinks it really fast and he won and actually I was really close to winning. He kinda feel bad at his stomach but I think it's worth it because he received 250 thousand rupiah so he rests and my uncle challenges us again and my other two cousins gave up so I'm the only one left. So my uncle challenges me to drink the second bottle of beer for under two minutes. I was able to do that and this is the stupid part, when I finished the beer i threw up on the table because i drank and eat to much and I went to the garden to throw up even more but what's worth it is that I got 400 thousand rupiah. After that I ate cherries because my mom said it could make me feel better. Then we continued to the most waited activity which is giving angpaos. I am the last one in the line to get angpao. I did a mistake while I was saying the words before getting angpaos and I feel embarrassed. Then we took a picture together and we talked to each other again. Then we all went home.

Here's the picture we took
The next day, me and my family went to Tegal to visit my other grandma. The journey took about three hours and it's faster than the usual time to get there because we used the new highway. When we arrived there, we picked my grandma to go to the cemetery. We went to my grandpa's cemetery area and threw flowers on them. Then we went back to my grandma's house and ate lunch. Then we talked to each other for quite a long time. Then we went home and when we went home it rained quite heavily. Our journey home is longer due to the time we went home and the repairing of the road and the journey took four and a half hour. Once we arrived home, I took a bath and ate dinner and then sleep. Sadly we don't took any picture while we were there.
