I can’t remember when was the last time I’ve spent New Year with my family or received a wonderful little red pocket (maybe seven years ago?). Being away from family and many of my close friends, Chinese New Year has little difference from any other day, except maybe it gave me an excuse to shirk from works and enjoy a movie borrowed from a friend. Luckily, the movie was very nice. It’s a French firm called Les Choristes (The Choir) and has a fairly simple and elegant plot with a beautiful soundtrack (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0372824/). Well, having indulge myself with plenty of ‘tasty but not so healthy foods’ and a lovely movie, I guess I should be satisfied with this Chinese New Year and put my heart back to studies.
Happy Chinese New Year to all my friends.
