Chinese New Year 2019

Happy Year of the Pig!!! :D
This year's a very quiet CNY for me as my grandparents are kinda homebound.... so my parents are also homebound-ish because they are currently the caregivers for them. But that doesn't mean I can't dress up hahaha.

大年初一 ／ Day 1's:







Brother and I re-enacting our sofa shot for the N-th year hahaha:



And my #brunchdategirls' yearly tradition of CNY selfie collages! Can't remember how it even started... hahaha but we have been keeping it going!




大年初二 ／ Day 2's louhei session:







OOTD:





Windy and I were in unintentionally matching outfits again.... this has happened too often hahaha. I'm not even a fan of 'couple' outfits:





Here's the video that the #TRDOco did for CNY! Hehehe challenge yourselves to our tips if you'd like! ;)

And on Saturday (Day 5), my SDZ Modern Year 3s came over to bai nian! It's been more than 10 years since I've opened up my house to anyone. It's just not my family's 'habit' to invite people over, so it has always remained like that haha.
But anyway, because they kept pestering me + I thought back to how I used to go to my teachers' houses for CNY too it was actually pretty exciting so I decided to just do it for them :)

Our expensive louhei which consists of salmon sashimi, smoked duck AND abalone hehee yummzzz:



Anyway we had a fun time playing draggy card games and gambling hahaha.
They are graduating in 2 months' time.... nooooo :(

breathe.

Achieved a couple of dance choreography milestones this year (especially for SP SDZ!)... something that I didn't even want/think I would do if you asked me to before 2018. The above is one of them! :)

What was half-done and stashed away in Q1 of 2017 was finally brought back to life and completed in this little video project of ours... partly due to 1.5 years of constant nagging from Vanessa hahaha. The initial choreography was meant for the TRDO Youth League competition back in 2017, but the Tertiary segment got cancelled due to poor response so there was no point in me finishing it up. I was secretly glad HAHAHA because I was really lost and didn't know how to choreography properly.

So yes... the idea of turning it into a video sounded good, but it also took me awhile to tell myself that I could do it. I decided that I should really complete it by the end of 2018 if I were to say yes, thank you dancers for making it happen with just 2 rehearsals!! Hence everything is far from perfect... but as Li Rong put it (to comfort me and also herself...) - 不完美才是完美 hahaha.








And as you can tell, they were horribly dirty because of the floor hahaha. Thank you for tolerating the space!!! :)



They bought me these cakes from Châteraisé which were soooo delicious :D
