14th of every month (Korea)

Yesterday, Kawabata Sensei shared something interesting to us during the class. He was telling us about the culture in Japan during Valentines Day.

In the past, the girls were made chocolate for the guys that they were fancied for only.. But now, there is some changes, the girls will now give chocolates to almost all the guys they know...cheap and simple chocolate for male colleagues , brothers , guy friends etc.. hahaha..and for the one that they like, of cos will be either handmade or expensive and nicely wrapped chocolate.

Then on 14th of March- White Day, those guys whom did receive chocolate from the girls will need to return a gift. In the past, is only candy or marshmallow, but now there is more range like accessories, handbags etc. But i believe for the girls that they are not fancy for, should be only candy or marshmallow..and whereas for those girls that they fancy for should be more expensive gifts. Another way of expression their heart to the girl.

But The most interesting part is when he shared that in Korea, 14th of every month is special days for either those madly, deeply in love or for those poor singles...

January 14th "Diary Day"★
To symbolize the beginning of a new year, couples exchange yearly planners in which they mark their plans, anniversaries, birthdays and other important dates.

February 14th "Valentine's Day" ★★★★★
If a woman wants to confess her love for a man, or express her feelings for him, this is the day to give that special someone some chocolate. The streets of Korea begin to line itself with chocolate-filled lace baskets about a week prior to Valentine's Day. This day particularly makes a large profit in department stores, hotels, chocolate stores, bakeries, jewelry stores, and doll stores

March 14th "White Day" ★★★★★
This special day is in correspondence to Valentine's Day. On White Day, it is the men's turn to confess and express his love and affection for that special someone by giving her candies and gifts. The customary gifts on White Day are candy, not chocolate, jewelry, flowers, or dolls. Many men also highlight this day with romantic dinners and events. If one should forget this day and offer nothing to his significant other, he may not hear the end of it for a while

April 14th "Black Day" ★★★★
Black Day is a day for singles.
After the two romantic love-filled months, lonely singles surely are not in the best of moods. Therefore, Black Day is designated especially for singles. To console each other for enduring these past two months being single, people who are single will get together on this special day to eat Jjajangmyeon, black noodles.
Many people will also dress in all black, from head to toe including black accessories and black nail polish. Hence, the name "Black Day." Their sense of camaraderie will be stronger on this day as they declare "No to couples, and yes to singles!" but there are a few singles that find a suitable mate

May 14th "Rose Day" ★
On this day, couples exchange roses

June 14th "Kiss Day" ★
Kiss everyone you meet on this day

July 14th "Silver Day" ★
On this day, people exchange silver accessories

August 14th "Green Day" ★
On this day, couples seek nature and relax while singles drink Soju to drown their loneliness

September 14th "Photo Day" ★
On this day, take a picture together with your significant other in a romantic place and put it in a special place to look at.

October 14th "Wine Day" ★
On this day, enjoy wine with someone special.

November 14th "Movie Day" ★
On this day, couples go to watch a movie at the cinema.

December 14th "Hug Day" ★
On this day, couples hug each other in the winter to chase away the cold

Personally, I do like the HUG DAY cos Dec is winter ..cold cold and with the hug of ur lover , it will sure warm you up..hehehe..but now ..no lover so i think i need to hug all my teddy bears..........

Authentic 2010

１月１日　2010　金曜日

今日はとても楽しかったですね。はじめで甘いお酒を飲んたや、もちを作った。
Drinking sweet sake is for the blessing of sweet year ahead. Lunch was served with some of the authentic Japanese food. おいしいですね！
Pounding of mochi was so fun but was tiring...need a lot of strength. The mochi just taste so nice..don't know is it involve in  the pounding and rolling or is it because of 川端先生の汗。。hahaha...

After the party , I went to meet up with Nicky and Judy for some authentic India food. The restaurant was clean with nice ambiance. We had lot of laughter there. A lot of "authentic" conversation too..We brought our "country pumpkin" -Mr Nicky Goh to Mustafa Centre to shop too..

We went to  Harry's pub ( which I don't fancy at all ) for a chill out drink after the dinner. Tim joined us for the drink too. We chatted, laughed and made fun of one another. Great time !

The night was ended with our dear "country pumpkin" took the wrong bus. It was so funny that I can't stop laughing. He wanted to take N3 home but when he saw NR 3 , he just simply and happily hoped onto it. I didn't realized was the wrong bus until Tim said out that it was different. Luckily we managed to ask him to get down on time and changed to another bus number. But because of this , we also learned that N3 is by SBS and NR 3 is by Transit co and they go different places. So next time when you want to take night rider home, please open up your eyes big and don't just hope to the bus because of the number, the alphabet "N" and "NR"  ( the difference of the "R") makes a difference!

Tenrikyo Got Talent 2009 - Singapore

25th Dec 2009 - Christmas Day

Finally was the day for the year-end party by Tenrikyo Misssion Centre ( Singapore). Every year, they do have year -end party on 25 th Dec, but this year was a bit different. They had a special program called "Tenrikyo Got Talent". This program was suggested by the GTK( Great Teacher Kawabata) aka Kawabata Sensei aka Pop Star Kawabata..but now had promoted to Super Star Kawabata!!

We had 10 groups of people joining this event. Some of them sang japanese songs, some of them danced and for me I was the balloon princess..hahahah...I was doing the balloon sculpturing. I must thank Jessie chan for helping me to put on the make-up. It was hard on her cos my eyes were quite challenging for her. :P

The practise was hard as the balloon kept bursting and also the fingers can be quite painful after the whole day of practising. Nevertheless, the effort was being paid off when I saw the smiles of the people when they looked at my kawaii balloons..

This TGT had attracted 130 people attending the year-end party at Watten Estate!!! We rocks !!!!

This was a good memory for all the audiences, the performancers and also for our 3 dear Japanese sensei tachi. This made their 2 years stay in Singapore an unforgettable event when they go back to Japan. Will miss them a lot when they go back to Japan . Next event to look forward is the Children party on New Year Day. Sweet sake is to be drank on that day for  good blessing for the new year 2010 ahead!

Happening week.

The week was filled of laughter and fun with the celebrating of our Japanese November Babies - 森本先生　と　川端先生.

They had a lot of cake for the whole week...maybe it was the first experience of  having the most cake eaten ever in the whole week..hahaha.. but this also showed their popularity among the students.

Of course, as usually I made two lovely cards for these two lovely  先生。Spent quite some time choosing the individual present for them as it wasn't an easy task, especially for 川端先生. I knew he likes to perform magic so went to do some research over the net and also went to The Magic Hall and stared for almost 2 hrs plus before deciding on which magic tool to buy for him. Finally bought him something "WOW" and hope he can be able to master the magic.

As for 森本先生, went around shopping here n there and finally found one very lovely necklace that she can used it for accessories.

Everything was worth when I saw the smiles on them when they received the cards and the presents. We had great time at the Hong Kong Cafe at Marina Square on thur ( 12th November ) which was the exact day of  川端先生 birthday. Followed by a BBQ on the sat to celebrate again for 川端先生 and also for 森本先生 as her birthday was on the 15th November.

Although I lost the opportunity of staffing which some of you know what it means , but I found another door of happiness which I never thought that it could be so fun. So when a door closed in your life, there will sure be another one for you to open but is just whether you want to take the risk to open and see what is there for you.

On sunday, I also met up with some of my LP 79 friends. Seeing them made me feel so happy. Met up with Pin and Verdy for a ice cream session at Bugis first before going for the porridge buffet. The ice cream wasn't that nice :( . Next met up with Rebecca, Ivan, Fiona and Bryan for  the porridge buffet, also not nice..that made me even more sad :( :(
Apart from all the "not nice" food, I enjoyed myself with them. It had been quite some time I had last seen them.

I had a fulfilling week by enjoying with the people around me, appreciating the friendship that had been built, building new friendship around me etc..

ok..time for some beauty sleep and go to work tomorrow...
