1. You suddenly realise that CNY is nearly upon us.

2. But you know what that means…

3. PUBLIC HOLIDAY!

4. You start thinking about all the awesome things you’re going to do.

5. Like getting a tan on Sentosa…

6. Treating yourself on Orchard Road…

7. Drinking like there’s no work tomorrow (because there isn’t!) …

8. And stuffing your face with all the CNY goodies.

9. You spend four days living life to the absolute fullest (which basically means 72 hours of solid partying).

10. Because it’s god damn CNY and four days off work is not something to be taken lightly!

11. But before you know it, it’s already Sunday.

12. The thought of work tomorrow is enough to drive you into immediate depression.

13. Even your friend’s invite to Sunday brunch can’t cheer you up.

14. Eventually it’s time to go back to work.

15. And while your colleagues pass round photos of their long weekend away in Phuket/Bali/Maldives…

16. You are hungover, sunburnt, poor, and 10lbs heavier.

17. Because do you know how many calories are in those pineapple tarts?!

18. Oh well. You’ll be better next year
