Year of the Rabbit

White satin blouse - Ann Taylor; Shorts - Zara; Cardigan - Zara; Boots - Clarks

I wore this outfit during the Chinese New Year parade at Flushing, Queens. It was an amazing parade in that aside from the Chinese parade participants, a lot of Koreans also participated. Maybe I should ask a Korean if they also celebrate their New Year on the same date as the Chinese. Koreans, do you hear me?

Hubby and I are only starting to explore the "real Chinatown" which is Flushing. Canal Street you are an impostor. It bothers me that the people there talk to me in Mandarin and I could just smile or nudge my husband to reply for me (hubby can speak Mandarin). So, just over the weekend, I decided to order the Rossetta Stone Mandarin. I just hope that before I start residency in July, I can converse in basic Mandarin. I know I wouldn't have time for anything by that time.
