chinese new year is......
......when you meet relatives and friends whom you have not seen over the past year,
and for some strange reason, they feel obliged to say that they will be coming over to visit you in your country this year.
people whom i cannot remember their name, or faces, nor their relation or their background.
i cannot comprehend why all of them feel compelled to say it, when statistics prove that 99.9% of the time, they do not.
do i look like i'm starving for some company from some distant and not-too-familiar relatives?
maybe they do not know of a better way to end the conversation and bid farewell?
they always say they will come, (eventhough i have not extended any invitation), and i always reply with a, 'that will be great'.
who says i do not know my manners?
i too know the art of bullshitting.
