Shopping For New Year

Just back from a night market in TTDI. As usual, this night market gathers crowd from different races including Caucasians who stay nearby but the majority comes from the community of TTDI itself. Please bear in mind this is not the TTDI in Shah Alam, which was flooded last time (maybe a punishment by The Almighty God - nobody knows!).

This night market is not the focus point in this posting. It is just an introduction just like a starter before we have our main course while dining. Actually, I went to One Utama before that, just to accompany my friend for his window shopping. I never expect such a big crowd like today and 90% of them are Chinese. Each and every one of them carried at least a bag or two showing that they are serious to celebrate this coming Chinese New Year.

This year according to Chinese Calendar is a pig year and my Chinese friend said this is going to be a lazy year. Well, it is not me who said that but it came out from a pure Chinese guy. I cannot say nothing much but to agree with him. Yeah, pig in Chinese community is always been referred as a lazy animal.

Back to the shopping extravaganza, I would say that now is the time and worth to buy personal stuffs especially clothes. For every shop in the mall, this is the time for them to make a big money. People are eager and excited to prepare for their upcoming celebration; the biggest celebration for Chinese community. So, for others (other than Chinese) you can also grab and take this opportunity to buy one or two clothes with cheaper and very reasonable price.
