I'm so excited about Chinese New Year. When do I get to visit grandma? Grandma makes the best dumplings in the world.
Haha, right. Sounds to me like you're more excited about dumplings than seeing your grandma.
Of course I miss grandma too. I bet she's going to teach me how to play Marjon.
Hey, Dad, are you going to buy me firecrackers this year? We're going to have the best fireworks.
I'm really looking forward to lighting them. Sun, firecrackers aren't toys. They are dangerous.
No, fireworks are awesome. Wow. Don't you remember? Last year when I set up the firecrackers, you covered both your ears and hit behind your mother.
Dad, I was scared because I saw a bug. That's all. Really?
Oh, and I can't wait to watch the dragon dance. Dad, can I sit on your shoulders this time?
Hey, I offered last year.
Well, anyways, I was just thinking of the red envelopes. I want to make a list of all the things I'm going to buy with my red envelope money.
I can't wait. I'm going to have so much money. Mom, can I get a pen and a piece of paper? I want a new transformer now. Two transformers.
Up in the sky. Wheeljack. I'll get a PSP game.
Oh, I want to do that.
