It's 2008, Year of the Rat. That makes my 3rd uncle 48 this year and my 7th uncle 36 years old I was really looking forward to Tet this year...not because of the li xi I'd be getting this year but that I was really welcoming the get togethers that was going to happen that very weekend. It was going to be very celebratory and excitng....plus also I was going to have a 3 day weekend off from work!!! I so needed a break after having worked so much OT the previous weeks. So Giao Thua (The Eve of Tet) was actually Wednesday. I had to get up for work at 3am for my new promo training at work the 1st day of Tet. I tried to get it off but it didn't fall through because I needed to be trained that week.
