luck, happiness, prosperity, longlife, fortune, and success

Chinatown (or Binondo) was awesome. Even though the streets reeked of garbage stench and was strewn with spit, I was so happy that I got myself a lovely red silk cheong sam. The dress length was just mid way from my ankles and knees but the slit was pretty high up to my mid thighs. My dad who paid for it said I should wear pants or stockings underneath and I am like “DUH!". I really look good in it. After walking around , we decided to have lunch at this Chinese restaurant . The meal was great and two dragons even danced their way into the restaurants complete with drums and cymbals. I never saw anything like it and the “dragon” had to reach for the red envelope money taped to the ceiling of the restaurant. Then we brought a few sparklers , dancing fountains and these fortune fountains which we plan to light up tonight at the stroke of midnight.

firecrackers in the Philippines

Tomorrow, my dad and I will troop to Chinatown (Binondo) and buy those spectacular fireworks. It’s better than firecrackers anytime. Did you know firecrackers in the Philippines are of an amazing strength - like real little hand grenades? About a hundred amputated fingers are reported for Metro Manila alone on New Year’s eve annually. The worse part is these local manufacturers add cow’s dung to make it more shattering. And so, there is this chance of getting infected with tetanus or something. Ahh New years eve will have the usual noisy racket and explosions here and there.

flatfooted

Aspens and I have one thing in common. We are both flatfooted. And it sucks…I get backaches all the time. When I was 7 till 9 years old, I wore orthotics but that didn’t help one bit. It just makes it more comfortable to walk. Maybe I should order that flatfoot insole. That reminds me. My future husband should know how to massage my back.

spelling test

Take this Spelling Testof 50 commonly misspelled words and see how you did right away. Ah, I missed 15 words. I don’t know if that is good or bad.

smilies

This Guide to Emoticons will come in quite handy when I add more clickable smilies at the Protagonist Boards. There are so many million things I have to configure but it’s worth it.

lele

See how out of touch I am? I just found out that Lele redesigned. And this time it’s a collective of all her sites like journal, gallery , webcam and weblog. Wow, and to think a few months ago, she started out with a blog. Great work, Lele.
