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.

????????????*Happy Lunar New Year!*

?????!  *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! x.x ) 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 :hehe: ) 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.
