Lovaholic wishes all lovables Happy Rice Dumpling / Dragon Boat Festival!!! 端午节快乐!
The Dragon Boat Festival, also called Double Fifth Festival, is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth moon of the lunar calendar.
The origin of this summer festival centers around a scholarly government official named 屈原 ( Ji Yeun ). He was a good and respected man, but because of the misdeeds of jealous rivals he eventually fell into disfavor in the emperor's court.
Unable to regain the respect of the emperor, in his sorrow 屈原 ( Ji Yeun ) threw himself into the Mi Low river. Because of their admiration for 屈原 ( Ji Yeun ), the local people living adjacent to the Mi Lo River rushed into their boats to search for him while throwing rice (believed to be in the form of dumplings) into the waters to appease the river dragons.
This festival is a day to commemorate the patriotic poet 屈原 ( Ji Yeun ) whom drown himself to show his love to his country & dis-approval of the tyranny Emperor of the Sung Dynasty.

Hi babe!
Chanced along your blog.. I'm interested in taking part in TNF this year! Just like to ask you, whether black enlargement contact lens and fake eyelash is allowed? I understand that the judges are looking for natural beauty, so I just wish to double check with you whether it's "allowed". Hope you can pass me some tips before sat! Thank you so much! :D

Halo dear,
Am really sorry as I seldom log-in to my blog to check.
I'm so late for this....
I'm not sure as whether it is allow but I can confirm that unnatural iris is a big no-no. What I suggest is that as long as you keep your own eye color it will be fine :)
Hope you have got into the 21st June round :)
My apologises for such a late reply :)
All the best lovely :)
