the 1st day of CNY - gambling day?

I was woke up by the pain of the muscles of my both hands at 5a.m.. The pain was just like the pain of the leg we could feel after we walked for the whole day....
I ate the panadol, and then continued my sleeping...
Woke up at 10a.m., it's the first day of CNY.
Luckily, my hands were not as painful as just now, and I had recovered from flu.
Normally, according to tradition, we would be visiting the mother-side-family members on the second day of CNY.
so.. We are a bit special, my parents always bring us to visit the mother-side family on the first day.
Visited relatives, aunties, uncles; Got many angpows from them ^^
Drank a tin of Shandy, 100 plus, JustTea, ate cookies etc... fat?!!! (normally, I seldom drink softdrink lor..)
We had a long stay at the third aunt house (my mum's third elder sister) and had our dinner there. There were many babies (all are my cousins' daughters and sons, the oldest is of 5 years old, and there were 3 under 1 year old babies) too! and hence you could imagine how noisy it was!
We were gambling (wanlup) for the whole day, so tired huh... overall, I won few RM.
eh... "CNY mar, sure gambling one", but we play in small amount of money only, and it's just for fun, ok? haha
do you notice one thing? the 1st day of CNY, is always a 'hot' day!
