          - Festivals
          Chinese New Year is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays.

          In China, it is known as "Spring Festival," the literal translation of the Chinese name 春節 (Pinyin: Chūnjié), since the spring season in Chinese calendar starts with lichun, the first solar term in a Chinese calendar year. It marks the end of the winter season, analogous to the Western Carnival.

          The festival begins on the first day of the first month (Chinese: 正月;pinyin: Zhēngyuè) in the traditional Chinese calendar and ends with Lantern Festival which is on the 15th day. Chinese New Year's Eve, a day where Chinese families gather for their annual reunion dinner, is known as Chúxī (除夕) or "Eve of the Passing Year."

          Because the Chinese calendar is lunisolar, the Chinese New Year is often referred to as the "Lunar New Year".

          The Marina Bay Area is located right in the Business District of Singapore.
          You can find many art activities, exhibition / convention centres and even a casino, 
          all in close proximity to many commercial businesses. 

          A case of Work hard, and Play harder after work?

          It's the time of the year when new year resolutions are made...

          "We will open the book. Its pages are blank.  
          We are going to put words on them ourselves.  

          The book is called Opportunity and 
          its first chapter is New Year's Day."
          ~Edith Lovejoy Pierce 

          This year, are you going to finally finish your portrait?

          A new year has begun. 

          While memories of 2011 will remain with us always, we look to the horizon and begin the new year with fresh hopes and aspirations, with renewed strength and vigor, to cope and overcome,  and eventually to achieve.

          HAPPY NEW YEAR and may 2012 be a wonderful year for everyone!

          Beautiful image capture! 
          Did you know that in some Asian Countries, they breed bugs and sell them as snacks?
          Have you tried the deep fried scorpions and bugs bought off the sidewalk vendors from the streets of Bangkok?
