Green Tea KitKat
Only Nestle in Japan make these special Matcha KitKat. Look, the chocolate is really green!
It's like drinking green tea with wafers *yummy*
There are other flavors of KitKat, but this is my favorite ☺
Fierce, Flawless & Fabulous
Sassy LA girl, who has insatiable desire to learn people's stories, discover exotic places & try out exciting experiences. Travel '1/2 the globe,' lived in different countries & been exposed to different cultures. I have crazy obsession with shoes & purses. After all, a girl should be two things: CLASSY 'N FABULOUS!
Carpe Diem... Wanna jet-set with me? :)
XXI Olympic Vancouver 2010
The 21st Olympic Winter Games is being held in Vancouver, B.C. - Canada starting on February 12th until the 28th, 2010. Some events held in the Whistler resort town. This is the 3rd Olympics hosted by Canada & the 1st in B.C. (previously in Montreal, Quebec in 1976 & Calgary, Alberta in 1988).
The 2010 Winter Olympics logo is called Ilanaaq the Inukshuk. It was unveiled on April 23, 2005. Ilanaaq is the Inuktitut word for friend.
The 4 mascots were introduced on November 27, 2007 inspired by traditional First Nations creatures:
✜ Miga is a mythical sea bear, part of orca & kermode bear
✜ Quatchi is a sasquatch (Bigfoot), who wears boots & earmuffs. He comes from the mysterious forests of Canada & dreams of being a hockey goalie
✜ Sumi is an animal guardian spirit, who wears the hat of the orca whale, flies with the wings of the mighty Thunderbird & runs on the strong furry legs of the black bear
✜ MukMuk is a small & friendly Vancouver Island marmot
Miga & Quatchi are mascots for the Olympic Games, while Sumi is the mascot for the Paralympic Games.
MukMuk is considered a sidekick.
I was vacationing in Vancouver in August 2009. I took the chance to meet with the cute mascots & purchase some souvenirs. MukMuk is my favorite! I brought a little one home.
Well, I really wish to be in Vancouver this week. LOVE the city! Maybe I move there one day...

WHAT IS L❤VE?
L❤VE is not infatuation,it is not simply a feeling,
but involves commitmentL❤VE is devotion, not emotionL❤VE is selfless,
it is other-centeredL❤VE is patient & understanding,
it is willing to waitL❤VE suffers long & is kind,
it respects others,
it creates happinessL❤VE is never jealous,
it shows secure & mature heart,
instead of possessivenessL❤VE reflects sensitivity,
it shows good manner,
and protects othersL❤VE is not arrogant,
it is not conceited nor boastful,
it is always humbleL❤VE is forgiving,
it forgets past failures & sins
L❤VE is more than just hearts, flowers & romance...
more than candlelit dinenr & dancing,
more than walks in the park,
and moments of intimate sharingL❤VE lasts beyond those initial stages...
It's understanding through the difficult times,
caring past the disagreements.
or laughing together to keep from crying
when things couldn't seem to go more wrong.It's patience & compassion,
compromise & healing.L❤VE bears all things,
believes in things,
hopes all things,
endures all things
There are three things that last:
FAITH - HOPE - L❤VE
and the greatest of these is L❤VE
because L❤VE never fails!

Wishing you a successful, healthy and prosperous Chinese New Year! (◕‿‿◕)
According to the Chinese calendar, 2010 is Lunar Year 4708. On the Western calendar, the start of the New Year falls on Sunday, February 14th, 2010 ~ The Year of the Tiger *rawrr!* This year, the date has special significance since it also happens to fall on ♥ Valentine's Day ♥ making it doubly auspicious day to celebrate!
Today is one of the special events (besides Christmas) when I feel homesick and longing to be close to my family. I come from a big extended family and every year on Chinese New Year's Eve (chú xī), we all gather together and enjoy the festivity. Family matters most to me, they always stand by me all these years. I truly miss my Mommy, my Sister, my adorable niece Catherine & baby nephew Nic. Well, honestly I also miss getting the red envelopes ('hong baos = $).
❥ PS: Don't forget to eat chow mein (noodles) today, which symbolize longevity ☺

Only in 日本!
Yup, these are official Hello Kitty stamps I purchased in Japan on my Christmas 2009 trip. They come in ¥50 (~ US$0.55) & ¥80 (~ US$0.85). You can actually use these stamps for mailing, but I'm gonna keep them with my other Hello Kitty collections.
Check out the ♥ shape one! Super kawaii, eh? ;)
