    theirs acrobatic shows are really awesome. The performers all trained from very tender age. Too bad this art seems to be dying nowadays

    They have been trained since they are 2 or 3 years old. That's why they are flawless. :D

    Just before the Chinese New Year, the malls here brought in several dancing troupe from China performing in their premises, and we get to see them for free. I'm amazed at their talent!

    While I love the shows, I read some horrific articles about the way those little kids are forced into this career so I'm in two minds now.

    Saw you at Gattina's. Are you a cat girl?

Twin bananas

Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
