A bit of a new year’s rant?

Duh... Back then, when the internet was a new thing... and the aunties, or, the older generation had them, they (I really mean one of my aunts), simply kept forwarding chain emails. So much so, that I actually gave up on my first email ever (it was a hotmail account) and started another, without giving her my new email, so I could just, not receive her spam.

Many years later, it seems like the email hype has died down.

Then, it was Facebook. But it wasn't too bad. The same aunt had tagged me in some posts, but it really wasn't too bad, so yeah.

Now, we have an extended-family WhatsApp group, with all the aunts, uncles and cousins (in Macau, so Mom's side of the family). And last night was terrible....

This aunt just kept forwarding and forwarding all these New Year's wishes, videos, fly-throughs, photos.... NON-STOP!

Gahhh!!!!!!!! Stop it! Stop it pleeeeaaaaassssseeeeeeee! The same happened during Christmas! It's like every new image/gif/greeting she received she had to send it to the group!

JUst please stop!!!!

Last day of the year 2020

First off, thank you deepseasiren! Your Christmas Card made it within this year! LOL! I was actually surprised any mail came in today, because for all government agencies, it's a half working day today.

I decided to skip work today, and went with my friend C over to Coloane (what I like to call the "outskirts" or "countryside" of Macau... but they've started to develope that island, so it's not "countryside" anymore). First, Yuki, the Shiba you will see in photos later, went to the vet to get her eyes checked. Then, we went to this... old shipyard village?

I thought being a good Catholic is do good during your day-to-day living, and not just doing "facade" work such as "show people you go to Mass and do confessions". I'm sure God would love us more if we actually do good during day-to-day activities. But anyway. I'll skip religion, lest I start a war or some sort here.
