If I had won lotto :-)

Have you ever thought that you would win lotto someday?
 
This summer season, there’s a Japanese drama called “The man who won 320 million yen in Lotto 6″, the actor dreamed to win lotto and as a matter of fact he did win.
 
I have been dreaming to win lotto, but never happened to win yet
:-)
 
My best friend said if she could win 500,000 dolloars from lotto, after deducting tax, with the remaining money could only buy a house which is not so luxury while not big as well.
Oh, I don’t mind to have a small and not luxury house worth 10 million. I’d bew very happy if I could just win
:-)
 
Hearsay that good luck people don’t win Lotto, maybe this is a good way to comfort those who don’t win.
 
Everything depends on the effort we pay out, only diligent hard working can make dreams come ture, only the earnest people, be earnest, dreamisz!

Heartful for romantic

Thyme is my favorite food plant which

has the aromatic smell that I like.

Wrap around the thyme pot by a piece of fabric that has

small pink flowers on,

this Valentine’s gift forthwith turns to be more dainty.

Leave it by the window balcony, sunset light,

again the life fills in different color.

This year Valentine’s Day has away,

wondering Valentine’s day has actualized how many couples.

This thyme pot and vegetables accompany me and home.

Beautiful apples facilitate thyme to be more brisk.

Sometimes, it’s not compulsory to buy romantics deliberately.

Just add some imaginations into life, there will be

some little amazement and hilarity happened to be

 found in many little things.

Cut a beautiful pumpkin into a heart shape.

Make heart-shaped cookies,

put small hearts together for myself.

Love ourselves as well as cherish ourselves,

give ourselves a little exhilaration.

Let our heart fills by colors evermore,

with cheerfulness and ardency.

100% Valentine!

Spending Valentine’s Day alone? Can condition self with a nourishing facial mask,

 

moreover with singing and eating gourmet without disturbing. 

2 people spend Valentine’s Day together.

Dearly love each other, could do anything romantic

as they like, just remember don’t argue.

3 people spend Valentine’s Day together.

One of them has to rush in order to have time for two special dates.

Or married couple with a kid,

3 people are more busy to have Valentine’s Day together.

4 people spend Valentine’s Day together.

Having parents or children in the family are warm .

Havind a bunch of relatives and

friends together party celebrating Valentine’s Day,

it’s a kind of happiness.

No matter you are alone or celebrate Valentine’s Day

together with lots of people, remember, be happy!!

Wishing all the bloggers all the happiness on Feb.14.

I also wish myself a happy Valentine’s Day :)

Send Me No Flowers, Valentine!


Valentine’s Day is coming.

Businessmen think of all kinds of strategies to

promote flowers, dinners, and romantic resorts to stay.

Lovers, husband and wife, friends, and families,
 on this day will wish each other a happy Valentine’s Day.


I love flowers very very much,

but don’t send me flowers on Valentine’s Day.
Flowers are distinctively beautiful and
gorgeous on Valentine’s Day,  

as well as extremely expensive.

The petals blacken and the flowers wither in 2 days,

such a pity to see the money to be thrown into the trash can.

A little box of sage or thyme,

give me a rosemary pot, or

a plant will make me very happy.

At least within 3 months these plants

still exist and I can remember by seeing them.

One friend’s husband bought a big flower bouquet

before the sunset on Valentine’s Day and

asked to deliver immediately to his wife’s office.

His wife and her colleagues saw the flowers were drying up,

knowing her husband’s frugal habit and this

bouquet must had been given 30% discount.

The more she realized, the more she got upset,

so on her way back home she threw the flowers away.

The same scene happened for several friends,

and they felt they didn’t receive good enough

attention from either boyfriend or husband.

No flowers nor diamonds, I can’t see too small diamond,

I dare not to receive too big ones,

better let me choose the diamond by myself! :)

New Year’s resolution.


Xmas has just gone, here come the New Year.

Just finished eating the Xmas cake, as if the sweet chocolate hasn’t melt.

The most excited thing is to appreciate and to taste cakes in Xmas season.

This year, this is extremely beautiful, white chocolate made to be the half shell shape,

with santa thick chocolate melted in my mouth right away.

Wishing the coming new year will be better than this year.

Wishing the coming new year everybody will be healthy.

Though happiness cannot be measured.

As long as everyone with peaceful mind,

do well on what has to do, to me this is happiness Indeed,

to have more wealth and able to help the needed people and self,

this is the greatest happiness.

Memories and Xmas.

In Xmas season, luxury boutique store windows

are elaborately decorated and specially beautiful with warmth.


Xmas gift shopping has done,
I’m at an ease and feeling relaxed, slowly walked and looked,
wihtout enough courage to recall many memories, time flees too fast.


Often, before recalling memories,

new memories take in place!
 

Suddenly felt the most wanted thing to do for pleasure before Xmas is

to watch movie at home. Remember once used to watch 2 old movies about Xmas,

one was acted by Robert De Niro and Meryl Streep, “Falling in love”.

And the other movie was by Annete Bening and

her husband Warren Beatty, “Love Affair”.

Those stories ended happily with warm Xmas reunion,

during Xmas I always think of these 2 movies.

Xmas gifts shopping again.

Continued from Sunday’s gift shopping, here I’m again.

The wrap package of L’Occitane is graceful and refined,

together matched with the soft color of lavenders makes me cognizing this brand.


In these recent 3 years of Xmas & New Year’s gift lists,

for my friends and sister, L’Occitane is one of the must.

My sister said her hands are dry in winter,

she always carries hand cream whenever she goes.

Those 3 sets are bought from in-flight duty free.

On the airplane, L’Occitane’s travel set has always been my first choice

in selecting duty free products. Xmas & New Year are coming again,

once again I bought it as Xmas gifts for friends and sister.

These 2 sets are the most frequent that I purchased in flight.

Have myself a little Merry Xmas

Used to thoughtfully consider several Xmas presents to give to friends.

Successively received gifts from friends, while myself hasn’t buying yet.

On Sunday morning went to department store, slowly selecting from 1st floor.

I love to give books as presents to friends, or perhaps books are my own favorites.

Whenever a hardcover book is given by friends,

it will always make me happy.

Have spent a long time in the bookstore and bought a Jamie Oliver cooking recipes.

He is an adorable chef as I love his quick speedy cooking with nutritious recipes as well as natural attitude. It’s my first choice when I select books as gifts.

Subsequently, I bought a hardcover travel book—

500 of the world’s greatest trips by National Geographic.
Chocolate is also my favorite choice when give friends gifts,
 

just like thick sweet friendship. Crystal…not bad. When in Dhahran, a friend gave me a chubby crystal fish,

I love it and can’t let it go out from my hand. That crystal fish also accompanied me to several countries upon job. Watercolor, crayon and acrylic color is also my favorite choice

since myself loves painting.


I hope all my friends are happy when open the gifts from me.

Tomorrow will be another day to continue gifts shopping.
