Who wouldn't awe such a view? One can only wonder
But wonder no more, for dream can be come true
and true it is

Like You Haven't Got Enough from Melbourne

This city is just driving me crazy.. In a good way obviously..
cause just when i started to feel like i know this city a little bit more, kapaw kapaw boom..!!
Here you go, the city decided to throw an all night long extravagant event for the first time ever..

White Night Melbourne - A night like no other
A night like no other it was indeed..
I kept on saying that this feels like New Years Eve all over again to G.. but not till 6am in the morning, after i got my 4 hours sleep only, that i realise this is nothing like New Years Eve.. this is bigger!
People are still cramming up everywhere.. they are all excited, energized and most of all - still up for this whole from dusk till dawn.. i have to say am impressed, i wish i can pull an all night long like those every weekend..
owh.. and i cant help but smiling when i walked pass a crowd in front of Flinders Station at 6.50am cheering a mini orchestra to play one last song after they finished playing their - supposed to be last performance to conclude the event..
This whole cheerfulness, happiness, and just crazy act everywhere is contagious..
Am loving it.. thank you Melbourne one more time, for proving to be a what so called Most Liveable City in the World..

Anyway, i know that Facebook, Light projection all across city - Flinders Station

A night like no other

Free jazz performances, all night long - aka bad night sleep for some ;)

The year of the water snake 2013 ~ and good luck food

Say goodbye to the dragon year..

We've been busy cleaning the house,
getting fruits, buying new sheets, clothes and even new sofa cover..

G was such a great help too..
On the night at CNY eve, we went to have a whole fish for dinner and some spring rolls for good luck..
We ate our new year cake.. and a lot and lot and lot of sweets..
Funny thing, with all of this CNY stuff going on, G took me to this Spanish festival at Fed Square on saturday with the others..

Anyway..
I found this list of food that the Chinese believe to bring a good luck..
How many out of those did you eat?
=)

"Dumplings (jiao zi) are shaped like golden ingots, or  yuan bao, which were used as money during the Ming Dynasty. Serving them brings the promise of wealth and prosperity. The more dumplings you eat, the more money you can make in the New Year.

Noodles/ misua—for long life

Hair seaweed (fat choy) with dried oysters (ho see)—they sound like the Chinese words for “wealth and good business.”

Lotus roots (lin ngau)—for abundance year after year

Lettuce, in Mandarin, sounds like “growing wealth.”

Lengua—when the pig’s tongue is served, it symbolizes “profit.”

Platter of five meats or vegetables—“Five Blessings of the New Year,” referring to longevity, riches, peace, wisdom, virtue

Fish—symbolizes a profitable year ahead.

Vegetables—freshness means lasting fortune.

Balls: Fish (yu-wan)/ meat  (jou-wan)—the round shape of meat and fish balls symbolizes “reunion” and “togetherness.”

Radish/ Turnip Cake—Chinese for radish is tsai tou, which means “good omen.”

Poon Choi/ Big Bowl Feast—dish made of pork, chicken, beef, duck, prawns, tofu, abalone, dried mushrooms, Chinese radish, layered on top of one another, usually braised and served in a wooden bowl. Food in the bowl is shared, a communal activity, so dish promotes family relations.

Whole chicken with head and feet—boosts family togetherness, happiness.

Egg and spring rolls—shaped like gold bars, which connote wealth

Oranges, bamboo shoots and black moss seaweed—promotes wealth

Dried bean curd—happiness

Eggs—fertility

Chinese garlic chives—promotes long life.

Lychee, nuts—promotes close family ties.

Peanuts—long life

Pomelo—promotes abundance, prosperity, fertility and having more children.

Seeds, e.g. lotus or watermelon seeds—having many children

Tangerine citrus food—related to the mandarin orange and promotes good luck

Oysters, seaweed, abalone, and sea cucumber are added to the feast as symbols of good fortune."

Some sneak peek for you lovely people~

#365 - 2013 - #Month1

Here we go.. the first month for #365 - 2013
and 11 more to go =)

#365 - 2013

So.. its already 2013, and we are almost to finish the first month already..
Sometimes in Feb last year, i was browsing around on the internet when i found about #365
I felt incredibly silly for not knowing #365 earlier, and that I have passed the first month and become too late for me to start one..
I promised myself that I would start a #365 in 2013 and i will finish it proudly..
I really think it was a great great idea, and it will be such a sweet thing to do to go through it at the end of the year while waiting for the new year to kicks in..

For those who feel left out, just like me last year.. Dont worry!
I felt your pain but there's always 2014.. we've passed the apocalypse.. so giddy up for coming Jan =)

Well.. what is #365?
The original idea of #365 is to take one picture a day through out the year, while improving your photography skills..
However these days people all around the world has their own version of #365
Some were doing a gratitude note, one for each day through out the year instead of taking pictures..
Locked in a jar bottle for the family to read back at the end of the year.. (which i think is sweet as well)

-image from Google search-

Some were taking up challenges on doing new things every single day.. - this is so what am gonna do for '14
Some were baking - doesnt matter if it was small or big ones - but again, for every single day.. this is so not me.. i cant stand the kitchen mess after a week imo..
or..
Some were just like me,, decided to do the pictures, but just using my lovely reliable iphone.. no photography skills whatsoever, but i tried to make sure it was the highlight of my day...

I will post my pictures at the end of the month, so that i got 12 posts to go through at the end of the year..
Cant wait to see how it turns up on December.. =)
