Hi everyone,
I love Chinese New Year I always have, I don’t know if this the colors, food or whatever but it always seems to carry this magic about it.

Hows cool is this, everyone can just get involved |
According to Chinese Five Element Astrology Calendar, 2012 is the Year of the Water Dragon. Water has a calming effect on the Dragon's fearless temperament. Water allows the Dragon to re-direct its enthusiasm, and makes him more perceptive of others. These Dragons are better equipped to re-evaluate situations and understand patience. Therefore, they make smart decisions and are able to see eye-to-eye with other people. However, their actions can go wrong if they do not research or if they do not finish one project before starting another. I think everyone can relate to this, plus patience was one of my ‘life resolutions’ so it’s all good :)

There were some CNY activates around Trafalgar Square and China Town so I had to check them out. Here’s what I got.

China Town |
Around Trafalgar Square they had the stage and loads of performances and stalls, but my pictures were so shaking and blurry, sorry guys I just didn't think it was worth putting them up. On top of that I completely missed the fireworks!

I have so many layers on under this coat and i'm still cold

Night guys x
Yayayayayayaya!!! I'm so happy you posted this! I am a dragon so it is my year. I wish the area I lived in had a stronger Asian community with such a blowout celebration as yours... but unfortunately we don't! I usually just spend it with the fam.
ReplyDeleteHaha I understand being cold with layers. I live in Michigan and it is snowing up the wazoo and freezing right now!
Hope you're doing swell, you've reminded me to write a happy new year blurb on my new post :)
no probs thanks for checking in :)
DeleteAw, thanks for the kind comment, dear. :] And your blog's pretty darn fantastic. (Mine just drips the sort of obligatory apparent narcissism a 'beauty' blog seems to necessitate. Haha. Vapid, shallow, and easy to manage: just the way I like it. ;P)
ReplyDeleteAnywayyyy, lovely pics! I keep seeing all these images of Trafalgar S. and it just makes me want to jump the pond even more. ; _ ; It's even better during CNY. <3
Also.... I had ot laugh at the poor earless panda. Haha. You're right- he kind of IS cuter that way. Especially next to his yet-eared sibling.
Thank you for compliments I really appreciate it, yeah you should come its so much fun :3
Deletehehe gotta love bald panda :D
This is really amazing! I am so jealous!!! It seems wonderful and people's participation is so cute! Hope being one day there!!! :))))
ReplyDeleteKeep up!!
