Happy Lunar New Year to All!

The Lunar New Year is definitely not in the American calendar of holidays.... so it's pretty much quiet. But, when we have a group of Chinese together, it'll be celebration time. Well, at least we try to ;)

We had our reunion steamboat dinner with fellow Singaporeans in CMU... and not missing out the "鱼生" (raw fish salad), tossing to "学业进步" (advancement in one's studies). What can be more appropriate a wish to have than this!



Charis went in her little Chinese top :)

Honestly, we do miss the reunion dinners at home, gatherings with close family and friends, and of course the many Chinese New Year goodies too. It's really times like this that reminds us of how far away we are. In fact, we celebrate it only 13 hours after :p  

Well, this is another of our little attempt to build up the festive mood at home...



Chinese New Year is also the Spring festival, isn't it? For the first time, we're experiencing the coming of Spring (erm... not yet but soon!). Despite the lack of celebrations, we're having fun too, with the four seasons!

新年快乐!

Looks like you're doing quite well to celebrate the LNY over there.
Instead of Ang Pows, give Charis all our kisses and hugs.(Maybe she'll prefer the Ang Pows!)
