As with previous years, the main theme of 2008 New Year's card is about our children, Phoebe and Ernest. Because, they spent a whole lot of their time away from their home country, I wanted something that depicted these international kids, enjoying themselves wherever they be. And where else can kids enjoy themselves most, but in the land of anime. Kids here practically grow up with their favorite TV characters. Frankly, parents here are fighting an uphill battle with these non too fictional characters which pop up ever so often in various forms as toys, children clothes, and even food (yes, food!) at the shopping mall.
Happy New Year!
