恭禧發財( Gong Hey Fat Choy) HAPPY NEW YEAR ^_^

-

It's that  time of the year again , and of course we didn't forget to  celebrate the start  of the Lunar Chinese New Year, although we don't celebrate this family tradition as we used too,  we still  pay respect to  those ancestors  who  had instilled upon us the value  of  having family  dinners or get togethers this  year and what is the true meaning of this celebration.

Chinese language was one of the languages  I wasn't able to  master ( I'm sure Apong would be so  disappointed ) , but I am contemplating in taking Chinese language again ( and hopefully this  time I'll be paying  more attention )... There are two  ways of saying it and these are:

 Gong Xi Fa Cai(Mandarin)

 and 

Gong Hey Fat Choy(Cantonese)

We got our Nian Gao  ( Sticky Rice in English &  Tikoy is the Filipino Tagalog term ) & some moon cakes yum yum . 

Of course mom gave me my own  HONG BAO ( those little red small envelopes with money that are given during this season to kids ) .... 

Yea I got mine and my bro got one too  , I  guess we are not  too old to be given these things 0_* . 

Me so LOVING it

And yes sometimes the window shopping ends up  in buying something  that  I  really need or it was really a good deal. .... However this one is a must  buy . I bought a JOSE MARAN's 100% PURE ARGAN OIL which can be use for  hair (although they  have a Argan Oil for Hair in a seperate bottle ) , nail cuticles, split ends and as a daily moisturizer ( yes as a moisturizer ) Now  now now before you  raise an eyebrow and ask yourself this question ,  " Why  on earth would you want OIL in your face when you are trying to get rid the freakin LARD building in  your  face (s...

 Last  March 11th at 2:46 p.m. Japan was hit with a  10 meter high TSUNAMI & then a intense earthquake hit  the tiny  island. . . Now  a Nuclear breakout.  When  it comes to  helping out I'm always  ready  to  lend my hand ... i really would love to be in this  Relief run, but  I'm out of  state right now :( and i  live in the east coast  ....   It's good to know  i can still  help  out without doing the actual  RUN RELIEF , and just  buying this very  cute shirt and exclusively made by  the TKDK designer Simone Legno with  the collaboration and fund raiser Josh Duhamel  ( famously  known and recognized in the hit film ,  TRANSFORMERS ) .  this  is not the   first  time Josh did a fund raiser, he did it also  last year with  the Haiti  earthquake victims and i t was successful  of course.... He is...
