新年初三
如果我对你说我爱你，你会相信吗？

今天一早，华老师的学生去了她的家拜年。虽然我们约好十点在Kovan地铁站，我们还是等到十一点才出往老师的家。到了那里，我们发现到我们的班是最早到的。其他人都还没到。我们就在老师的家聊天，打麻将。在老师的家都留到差不多三点左右， 我们就离开了。

After visiting 华老师's house, I met up with the regular band clique and they came over to my house to for more visiting. Siyang tagged along since we lived close to each other. Hoiting and Yiang Shan met us at my place and they had their share of the 红包. After visiting my place, next on the list was Ray's place. So we all took a bus down to Hougang again.

At our regular hangout, we had the usual rotting session. But this time, the session was accompanied with cards and cash. Ray's room was immediately converted into a makeshift gambling den. Resident bankers consisted of Eugene and Chiang Chin. But I was really down on my luck and ended up contributing more than $20. Chiang Chin was a bit more generous than me though.

Having collected their share of red packets and blackjack winnings for the day, everyone was satisfied and went home. This was how 初三 was spent.
