Chinese Horoscope for the Year of the Rabbit 2011

Posted By Michael Yip / January, 4, 2011 / 1 comments

It’s that time of the year again where we reflect on what our Chinese horoscope ‘advice’ us for this year. Again, I’m just sharing what I received through email. Whether it really reflects on you is purely on yourself. Have a great 2011. The Year of The Rabbit begins on February 3rd 2011. Most Rabbit years are quiet, positive and inspiring and 2011 looks to be heading in this direction – a refreshing change after the fast-moving and quite dramatic Year of the Tiger. Family, diplomacy and personal development will all be highlighted in 2011. Once again alternative sources of energy and green living will be under the spotlight.

Overall, it should be a fun and relatively peaceful year. Even though aggression, violence and war zones will still be in evidence, the Chinese Rabbit year favors peaceful solutions and diplomacy, so there will be a feeling that all is not lost and that hope is still very much alive. Let’s take a look at each animal, their major personality traits and what the prospects are for 2011, the Year of the Rabbit. (more…)

Chinese Astrology fans out there must be starting to surf around for next year’s forecast as we are less than 2 months away from 2010. Here’s something I received in the email for you to read about.

The Year of The Tiger begins on February 14th 2010. Drama, intensity, change and travel will be the keywords for 2010. Unfortunately, world conflicts and disasters tend to feature during Tiger years also, so it won’t be a dull 12 months for anyone. The Year of the Tiger will bring far reaching changes for everyone. New inventions and incredible technological advances have a good chance of occurring.

For all of the Chinese horoscope signs, this year is one to be active – seizing opportunities and making the most of our personal and very individual talents. Everything happens quickly and dramatically in a Tiger year – blink and you could miss an important chance of a lifetime! Let’s take a look at each animal, their major personality traits and what the prospects are for 2010, the Year of the Tiger. (more…)

Monkeying Around

Posted By Michael Yip / June, 26, 2009 / 1 comments

These bunch of monkeys was monkeying around and grabbing crumbs of biscuits thrown by an old lady. With my camera around, I can’t pass off this opportunity to snap some photos and also to take down some notes of the shots I like while I’m at it.

The funny thing is, this malay couple drove by and saw the monkeys and stopped, the lady approached me while her “Abang” wait by the car and asked me what type of monkeys are they in Malay. So I gave her a quick answer along with their behaviors so that she could keep a distance and not be attacked (They do attack when provoked). (more…)

One of the classic games I used to play at the Arcade in the school days. At a time Michael Jackson’s Moonwalker was the biggest thing to hit town. Everyone was into it and game consoles at the arcades in town was practically flooded with machines featuring the Moonwalker. Check out this video to reminisce the Good ol Time and for those of you too young to know of such game, here’s what people in the early 90s before Internet and Cyber Cafes plays.

Great fun Great fun, wonder where I can find the computer version so I can download.
