First off, questions from thefridayfive

1) If you had to build a Christmas tree with just items around your house, what would definitely be part of it?
Paper bags? No idea on the design and buildup though!

2) What's your favorite holiday to decorate for?
I don't really like to decorate for anything. It's all fun and exciting when you decorate, but then there comes the day where you have to clean up and revert, then it's no more fun. That being said, in our place, the Chinese New Year is pretty easy to decorate for: No decorations per se, but we have an extra bowl of Chinese New Year -centric candies.

3) What are you best at baking?
The family secret recipe Midnight Cake!

4) What memorable gift do you still appreciate?
Fancy gifts are cool but the best are those that you get to continue to use for a long time. My cousin gifted me a cow patterned mug that I still use to this day just for milk, LOL.

5) What would be a good reindeer name?
I've been brainwashed to consider Rudolph a reindeer name. I haven't really thought much about it. Here, "Bobo" is a common name for a male dog. I have no reference point for reindeers. I know the song Rudolph the red nosed reindeer has a couple names in it, but I never really paid attention.

Followed by questions from F.riday5.com

1. If you owned a new professional sports team (pick any sport!), what would you name it, and what be its team colors?
This is so random, I have no idea at all LOL

2. If you owned a new restaurant, what would you name it, and what kind of cuisine would it serve?
A bit of a traditionalist, I suppose. If I were to open a restaurant, I'd want to serve Austrian cuisine (because there are 0 Austrian restaurants here in Macau). As for a name, it'd have to be something German... and since I don't speak much German, I only know simple phrases, so I would name it a tongue-in-cheek "Alles Gute".

3. If you owned a little independent retail shop, what would you name it, and what would it sell?
I've thought about that before and it would be pet supplies. Didn't think far enough for a name though. Dunno. Paws and Toys?

4. If you launched a charity, what would be its cause?
What do you know, I AM a founding member of a rescue in Macau!

5. What kind of recreation is sorely lacking in your town?
There probably actually IS, it's just that I don't go out much so I don't know much about it, but I would like to say boating and such water activities.

What kind of a rescue is it? A pet rescue? That's cool -- I hope you find it rewarding!
