    Or as the news and even the China Night performance I just got back from want to politically correctly call it, "Lunar New Year."

    Happy new year!

    ...wha?! O_O

    To think I thought that my $300 was a lot already. Heh.

    Anyway, I don't really like crowds (and socialising... and having relatives attempt to find out about your private life x.x), so I think having a small family's good for me xD

    Dude. I'm Chinese. I call it Chinese New Year; I'm just mocking the obsession of media in the US over political correctness. [...]
