Hee this is pretty fun.
Came up with this myself.
I used to do all of these 20 things when im young.
But as i grow up, there are less reasons for me to look forward to CNY.
What i mean is that it doesn't seem to be as exciting as before.
But no. 17 is one thing i definitely miss doing still.
Used to be the norm until sec 2/3, which i stop gg over to my grandma hse to stay over n pray.
Not as if i will pray, but she would do the praying n stuffs n we would juz watch the tele n get amazed by how she pray.
