Happy Lantern Festival


Happy Lantern Festival to all!

Yeah! Another fun-filled day for me. The once-a-year "Eng Kong Lantern Festival" celebration is here again. Can't imagine I was a small ignorant little tot last lantern festival and this year together with my "flashy" lantern, I participated in the annual Eng Kong Lantern parade. Without fail, every kids in the neighbourhood will turn up for this special ocassion. A day to show off (Oops, I mean parade) their cutie lanterns around, collect the goodies bag and not forgetting the almost-impossible-not-to-win lucky draw. Aha! You might ask what I won ya. Nothing! *Sob Sob*

The lucky draw simply took too long (you can imagine how many prizes there were for me to claim it's the almost-impossible-not-to-win lucky draw). It was well past bedtime and I got too tired and sleepy to wait for my lucky number to be shouted out loud. Well, it's alright. Give other kids a chance to get lucky... haha! *Sour grapes*

My "flashy" lantern!

The must-try traditional xiao zhu mooncake.


My lucky draw ticket which was not at all "lucky". Sigh!
