2015 CNY OOTD~

Hello~! I'm back again this time with just a real quick OOTD post on what I wore for this CNY.

Starting of with my balik kampung (directly translated to "return to village" which really means "going back to your home/hometown")  OOTD.

#1 Here I am wearing my new Ti:zed Ladies cardigan blazer, Padini Authentic tee, Padini white shorts and Typo duffle bag (old)

#2 For CNY Day 1, I wore this Padini red knit shift dress _ which is still kinda baggy 'cuz I didn't have time to alter it _ and  a cinch belt from Taobao. Pumps are from Jelly Bunny.

I really wanted to wear heels but I'm just too lazy to carry more stuff back :/ And please ignore my messy hair in this pic...

#3 For Day 2, I totally forgot to ask my sis to snap a photo but this is really what I wore except with the white belt like from the previous photo instead of the mustard one. I bought 3 colors (the other one is black) from the same Taobao seller (⌒▽⌒)

OK, last OOTD photo. Yea, this is a really quick post ( >__< )

#4 On Day 3, I wore this Nichii lace dress with a matching cinch belt I bought from FBlock. Took this photo from the porch so you get to see part of what my home looks like~

CNY Day 3 OOTD

Mom loves her garden and has lotsa plants including lotuses. One time I counted she had more than 20 different plants and over 50 of them in the porch/garden (=v= ) I'm not sure how many she has now but definitely lesser.

I'm not going to take photo of every inch of the porch but here's a close up on what's in my background. Largest pot we have in the house compound for lotus which hasn't flower yet and you can't see them but we have guppies in there too.

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!!ヽ(*⌒∇⌒*)ノ

Wishing you all a joyful and prosperous new year!

Happy CNY~!

Went back to home sweet home last Wednesday for CNY and had the most relaxing time. It was just for 4 days but can you believe it if I say it's the longest I've been at home ever since I started working?!! By Sunday morning, I'm already back to KL since I followed sis back even though I took a day off today. This is also the longest break I've taken fml (=__= )

Work + study life *sigh* I really ought to take more breaks and spend time with family more often. Need to make this part of my 2015 resolutions!

Took the train home and got this photo on the way back~ I'm sorta obsessed with looking at the colors of sky especially when the sun is setting or rising #simplethings

Sunrise at CNY Eve 2015

Got back home and mom just kept feeding us wth. I think I gained weight already crap (T▽T) Time to brush off the dust from my running shoes...

Here are some of the stuff we had for meals at home. For cny eve, we had roasted duck and pork, soup, Hokkien jiu hu char (fried vegetables with dried squid, a must every year) and curry chicken. Day 1 since we went out, we sorta tapau-ed. Forgot to take photo, my bad.

For day 2, we have more veges, vege soup, chicken and curry fish head~

CNY Day 2 Meals

Non-stop feast even on day 3 wth. Mom prepared steamboat since we were expecting visitors.

We don't usually do steamboat so YAYYY (((*°▽°*)八(*°▽°*)))

CNY Day 3 Steamboat

A lot right? This didn't include the fish, prawns or greens yet. We were like, "how to finish?!", but thankfully our guests can eat hahahah. Btw, took this photo while standing on a stool LOL

The exciting part of steamboat, waiting for the soup to boil (≧◡≦)

I brought back a bottle of my favorite Umeshu to share~ It's my favorite alcohol beverage because it tastes sweet though I don't drink often (ღˇ◡ˇ)~♥

Choya Umeshu for CNY :D

Homemade chocolates my friend gave when he came to visit~
