straight outta this Chinese astrology website:
Dog is the symbol of loyalty and honesty. People born in the Year of the Dog possess the best traits of human nature. They are honest, friendly, faithful, loyal, smart, straightforward, venerable and have a strong sense of responsibility.
Does this sound like you, if you are born in the year of the Dog? My boyfriend, Kevin a.k.a. @eatingwithhop on Instagram, is actually the Year of the Dog too! I guess I can agree on the honest and straightforward part.... and most everything else in that description.... (;

ABOUT THE UVSA Tet Festival
The UVSA Tet Festival attracts over 60,000 guests annually! This is probably the most popular event to celebrate the Lunar New Year in Orange County, attracting people from all over! There are going to be cool vendors selling merchandise and food, performances and shows, fireworks, parades, carnival rides, contests and more! It's definitely an event I look forward to every year that is fun for everybody! I've probably been going to it ever since I was little... no lie!
