This was supposed to be published yesterday, but I finished editing this post right now. Here you go!

I was really surprised to know that Vday and Chinese New Year’s day are on a same day.

恭喜發財﹗大家新年快樂﹗*Happy Lunar New Year!*

情人節快樂!  *Happy Valentine’s Day!*

It’s Chinese New Year again, and (as always) I expected food! We woke up early in the morning for Ongpin (street in Chinatown where all things chinese are found). But we ate our breakfast first! Grandma prepared it.

for breakfast, we had:

Misua (I don’t really know how it’s called in english )

and

Sweet egg

My mom said that these food are very traditional to bring goodluck for the whole year.

I was excited to go to Ongpin! Last time we went there during the new year’s was when I was 8, i guess. I remembered how grand the celebration was. And so I brought a camera just to have a shot of everything we did

So when we got to Ongpin:

This was the first dragon we saw. It was pretty! haha! gold! But we were still in the car , so I haven’t had the chance to take a good photo of this dragon. And so, we went out of the car and started walking!

Yay! another dragon! and many people. haha After we bumped into this dragon, we changed route (too many people. eek! ) But when we reached Shopper’s Mart, we saw this dragon again! lol! There were many people in front of the shop.

After the dancing lion took the angpao, the owner of the shop were throwing candies and angpaos! We didn’t get the chance to get closer, well coz it was very crowded in that area. And all of a sudden, there were two sets of fire crackers (sinturon in hudas) that were lighted. It was nice when the dancing lion was dancing along with the smoke. Too bad I didn’t get a photo of it! I was busy covering my ears

This is how the street is crowded with people when it’s Chinese New Year. If you look at the right side of the picture, there are many photographers sitting on a car just to get a picture of every moment. ^^

Some people even bought balloons to make a wish before they let go of it.

After walking around, we ate at Wai Ying’s! Well of course! Who would forget the delicious food for such a special ocassion!

Siomai! The most common Chinese food!

Radish cake! yay! It’s very delicious esp when you put sauce on it. Well, since it’s only three pieces (with the four of us on the table ) We shared it! Like we did with the hofan noodles!

Yummy food eh?

After celebrating Chinese New Year at Ongpin, we turned to celebrate heart’s day! Since mom’s the only one to give our love on valentine’s day, it was sweet of father to buy her flowers

This flower’s beautiful, but not perfect LOL.

this day has been special.

1. I was able to end my first year of highschool well.
2. I discovered my new addiction! (kpop)
3. Got into a new section in school, and i made new friends!
4. I got more challenged in swimming and finally had fulfilled my dream of entering the school’s swimming team!
5. Our field trip in EARTH HAVEN was a blast.
6. It’s our second year in this house already!
7. Performed in front of lots of people once again last teacher’s day 2009
8. Broke my record of staying awake until 2am!
9. MORE SCHOOL BREAKS.
10. And oh yeah! I was elected class officer again as a class treasurer. again.
11. Though famous personalities passed away in this year, they remain the best in our hearts. RIP, Cory Aquino & Michael Jackson.
12. More natural disaster hit our country in this year, but unity was again witnessed.

To make 2010 a better year, I came up with a list of my new year’s resolution!  Hope it will help me become better too. And to add a mix to my new year, I decided to do the 365 project. Here’s my site!

• been busy.
• we already finished 1st quarter.
• i had satisfying final grades so far, except for MATH >.<
• we had many suspension of classes due to special holidays.
• we already had our field trip!

Our field trip was held in EartHeaven! SO FUN. Even if it was VERY MUDDY out there, it was a good experience. Activities we had were hanging bridge, fill in the pail, catch the piglet, spider’s web, mud crawl and rappelling!

Here’s a pic from the mud crawl.

It was yucky. But had a long rinse afterwards :lol:

Currently listening to:

Finally! a blog post

And YES, finally classes started just this monday Though I entered a classroom with different classmates this time, I thought it would be fun meeting new classmates :D. My first 2 days of school was fine. I was even elected as class treasurer! *thank you, classmates :D* lol. It’s been a while since I was elected as class officer :D. The school changed, ALOT. New schedules, activities, teachers, curriculum, and most of all, NEW FACILITIES . They finally removed Thursday classes! woot! But more after-school activities. They also decided to teach computer with MAC computers for the sophies! *yay!* :yay: In music, they’re gonna teach us how to play with the bunduria (some kind of Philippine instrument) . I hope it’d be a fun experience this year.

Sorry for the short post, but I’ll update as soon! ciao!!

Sorry for not updating for a while. Been feeling lazy, and my site’s been down for 3 days I think?

Anyways, school’s in a few days already! And there’s Swine Flu like everywhere! And I don’t think that our school’s going to move the school opening date. Things are finally ready for school We already have our shoes and school supplies. And they had me wrap all the books for school (including my shobe’s).

I’m already finished watching ToGetHer. Another Taiwanese drama. Super loved it! It starred Rainie Yang & Jiro Wang. I was really planning on watching this long time ago since it was airing on TV, because I wanted to watch it continuosly, so I decided to let it finish and watch in the internet. Thanks SI!

Coz I finally watched it! *yay!* I watched it with my whole family! haha!  My mom and sisters were really crazy about Meteor Garden (Taiwanese Version) *still haven’t watched it completely*, they wanted to watch Boys Over Flowers when they heard that this was the Korean version :)). weeee^^ go Kim Hyun Joong !
