Hi again. The weather in NYC has been beautiful in this season. It's not too hot or cold. It's just perfect - Autumn in NY!

What do you imagine when you hear "October?" I would think of Halloween. Or some people may think Oktoberfest that is a two-week beer festival held each year in Munich, Germany during late September and early October. Sounds good, right? I guess you would come up with something else, but there is one more important thing is going around in this month.

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month - an annual international health campaign organized by major breast cancer groups to increase awareness of the disease and to raise funds for research into its cause, prevention and cure. The campaign also offers information and support to those affected by breast cancer.

I see many pink products to help funds at anywhere such as candies, cosmetics, clothes, kitchen tools and even a vacuum cleaner. The money raised is donated to the organizers' choice of treatment or research programs.

I really think this campaign is brilliant, and I am happy to help buying some products for funds. Plus, I am sure these products make me happy too because pink is my favorite color!

Okay everyone let's get yourself in the pink for breast cancer research!
