Chinese New Year!


If anyone wants to know, Chinese New Year is about the only festival I celebrate through the entire year. With all the publicity and reminders from my family, it is almost impossible to forget since there is no need to remember it at all (which is totally unlike my own birthday which there is always a 95% chance that I treat it like any other day). =)


Chinese New Year is a festival celebrated by all Chinese around the world regardless of their religion, which is unlike many of the other festivals such as Hari Raya and Christmas. Maybe which is why it is my favourite time of the year; a time where people and family are truely important and 'God' takes a secondary role.
