Congrats Curtis, still in Malaysia during this holidays?
Perhaps I shall get "ang pow" from you this time... stay in Serdang?

Hi Casey,
I assume you are not Chinese descent, correct me if I'm wrong.
We can only give you ang pow when 2 conditions were fulfilled:
1) We are married (I'm not)
2) You are younger than us

So how old are you? lolx...
Anyway, just in case you was not given an "ang pow" before, I can make an exception and mail it over to Canada for you, just PM me your address.... haha

Wow, I can imagine you suffered all the daily traffic Jam through the federal highway when you travel to your institution ...

Curtis, You are not Malay, are you? I thought "menetap/tinggal/duduk" is a correct word instead of "hidup"?

:lol:...but only if you send me Kijang Emas...and I guess when it comes to age, I shld be the one giving you ang pow.......the japanese has the same custom during the New Year- doling out otoshidama to kids...but I'm also not japanese....:D

Is very impressive that you know about Kijang Emas, I feel quite ashamed of myself, being a Malaysian, I still need Google + Wiki to explain to myself about this gold coin...

I need at least 4 months of my stipend just to gather enough money to get one for you.... lolx


yup, just back from CNY break... there are increase of quantity of "any pow", but the total amount is being lesser... ~50 USD in total.

Hope you had a good CNY celebration, Adrian....
and I may not know much about your SYBR Green, Texas Red or Pacific Blue but I definitely know my Bullion Gold.... :D

hmmm...4 months of stipend,eh..... how about I take a rain check now so that you can finish first your masters, then move on to PhD , afterwards a post-doc and finally a high paying job and then you can send me my ang pow (with interest of course :P)...so break a leg Adrian...
