luck in games

This year's Lunar New Year I had as usual, had many rounds of mahjong in marathon style. Each session could go on for 4 or 5 hours at least and the game is addictive for those who still does not know what this game is all about. There is a lot of variations and it tests your wits and reaction time and of course luck if you want to survive the rounds intact.

Luckily I'm already at expert level I dare to boast *lol* because my mom trained me since I was 11! All of my relatives are experts so our games could be serious sometimes yet boisterous to other extreme. I also like to impart my knowledge to those younger ones who are still learning and it delights me to spread the fun around.

I think my luck is year was not as good as previous. Probably I was feeling not that well. However, I will manage to win overall as Marie Callas say my astral luck is still shining well. Thanks for Marie's talisman and pendant again! *grateful*

A day of game

Spent nearly 8 hours playing mahjong at my auntie's place on Vesak Day. Gosh...time ticks fast and by the time I stopped the game, it was already nearly 8pm. All of us were feeling hungry and drained. Funny is, somehow during the midst of the game, all of us did not feel tired or anything.

Yes, people in this area likes this game a lot and almost everyone knows the rules, even the 10 years old. It builds up family camaraderie spirits and bonding, gets relatives closer to each other and brings lots of laughter to all of us, irregardless of winnings or losings. We play mahjong in a friendly family spirits! Well, in the end, you know who makes the most winnings! The person is me! But it's not much, just over RM100. The players got nice shares this time and it's not as one-sided as during chinese new year. Right, not bad for a full days' 'work', yea?
