My quick guide to Chinese New Year!

Happy Chinese New Year to everyone!!!

Are you ready to usher in the Year of the Goat? Here is a quick guide for you!!!

1) Go see a fortune teller

Consult a fortune teller to learn what the year of the goat has in store.

2) Spring Cleaning

This is something very common for all Chinese families. Getting organized and doing a thorough spring cleaning are required to be complete by Chinese New Year. Throw away the broken funiture and unwanted stuffs. Families also start to hang ChunLian  (paper couplets) around the home's doorway to usher in good luck.

3) Go Shopping

Before Chinese New Year arrives, the following items must be bought: food for the Chinese New Year celebrations, new clothes to usher in the New Year, gifts and Ang Bao (red envelopes) to distribute to family and friends.

4) Get a Hair Cut

Lastly a hair cut before Chinese New Year's is a must as Chinese believed that cutting anything during CNY is considered bad luck. And here I have my hair cut done at my usual Black Hair Salon!
