Good days to start work in 2015 after Chinese New Year

The Spring Festival or more commonly known in this part of the world as the Chinese New Year is just days away - 1st day of the 15-day celebration begins on the 19th.

Some would have already called it a year and have started their trip back to their hometown over the weekend. Some are still not sure when to commence work after the long holiday.

If you are someone who sort of is concerned about starting the new year on the right footing (who doesn't anyway), here's a guide on good days or auspicious dates to start work after Chinese New Year.

That chart below provides not only the dates but the best timing as well, together with info on which animal to avoid which day.

I don't have info for best colour(s) to wear this year but I remember reading that red is the colour this year but then again, red is THE colour for Chinese New Year. You won't go wrong wearing red, right down to the unmentionables. :D

Happy Chinese New Year of the Goat!

Friday Frolics - What's Your Valentine's Day Personality?

Hah! Don't I know it! What's yours?

Happy Valentine's!



Your Valentine's Day Personality is Practical

As far as you're concerned, Valentine's Day is simply a commercial holiday.

You don't place any real meaning on it. You don't think it deserves too much celebration.



For you, Valentine's Day is just the day you avoid restaurants and candy stores.

If you love someone, you already show it. You don't need to go all out for a silly holiday to prove your love.

Friday Frolics - What's Your Feng Shui Colour?

Do colours play a part in Feng Shui? I've read an opinion from a Feng Shui expert saying no, it does not. What you do you think or know? Share your comments with our readers below.

But in the meantime, if you think colours influence us or perhaps character determines colour, then you can find out what IS your Feng Shui colour in this week's quiz.

On a different note, we are less than two weeks, or 13 days rather to the Chinese New Year, the year of the Ram or Goat, which reminds me I've not had the time to put together info (as promised) on best day(s) to start work in the new year. Don't you sometimes wish there are more than 24 hours in a day!

No matter, have yourself a lovely, lovely Friday ahead and a wonderful weekend whatever you're doing. Life is about experiences..



Your Color is Orange

You are a harmonious person with good communication skills. You draw people together.

You have a strong sense of purpose, and you're a natural leader. You want to make the world a better place.



You are honest and open. You feel like you can express your feelings and opinions without fear.

You are organized and find it easy to concentrate. You are very productive.
