Chinese New Year Celebration

I woke up at 8.30am in the morning on the first day of Lunar New Year. Do you know why I woke up so early? Because I will be collecting red packet on that day and I was so happy. We leave my house at 10am sharp and we took about half an hour to travel to my grandma house. When we reached there, almost all of my cousin had arrived. So we start our annually gamble that is black jack. It is so fun that I and my cousins gamble about 6 hours on that day. We play about a few hours and I won about $3. I asked my mum:"Have you called the Lion Dance to grandma house?" She replied,"No." She immediately take up his phone and called the Lion Dance.
Soon, the Lion dance arrived and we gathered at my living room. They had start performing and my house corridor was crowd with my neighbours.
I hope that the Chinese New Year will come soon and collect red packets again.
