Chap Goh May

"Huh? Chap Goh May?"
"Tomorrow? So fast?"
"I thought still have few more days to go"
Part of my conversation with my younger sister yesterday through phone call.

Happy Chap Goh Mei
(snap out your holiday mood immediately)

That means CNY 2008 has come to an end! Ohhh, gosh! I didn't celebrate it to the fullest though. We did hang out with friends during CNY at Portland Chinese Garden, but still, it's different, I miss my family and friends!

The garden is awesome. Views are great, but I was home sick. My smiles seem fake in those pictures. Sigh...

liondance+me
This one looks real, I mean my smiley face because I love lion dance.

Yeah~~ Nice one! But still, you know, the feeling of staying abroad without familiar faces. For me, CNY is about reunion and gathering. Hmmm, it's ok, at least I try something new and I figured out my CNY plans next year.

Thanks for those who cares about my existence still.
cards
I'm so thankful for all the CNY and birthday greeting cards. It warms up my days.

去年元夜时,花市灯如昼。
月上柳梢头,人约黄昏后。
今年元夜时,月与灯依旧。
不见去年人,泪湿春衫袖。
