So That’s What We Called Chinese New Year

admin — Mon, 26 Jan 2009 23:51:05 +0000

Family, friends, fireworks, dumplings — That’s what we called Chinese New Year. As you can see, Chinese New Year Eve is like a battle zone. Fireworks everywhere. You would never feel alone since everybody was sharing joys with you at that night.

The food is just like other day’s food but the quality time you spent with your family makes it the best day of the year. On the first day of the new year, people visit each other to say hi, give their greetings over the phone and sometimes you receive greetings oversea… and yeah, that’s why i like Chinese New Year.

Black Market for Currency Exchange

This is the place if you are looking for a large mount of currency exchange. The address is 解放路166号 ( Jie fang lu 166 ) Here is the coordinates

So how to spot those people who do the black market business? Most likely they sit on the couch, look around, look like they are expecting someone. They usually carry a big bag with them.

Another concern is security issue. In my opinion, it won’t be a problem. They have CCTV in every corner. Some of them i knew have been doing this business for a long time. It’s a business based on reputation. So basically it’s a great way for currency exchange. Just be careful with those bills. They might have fake bills mixed with other real bills.

Lost Season5 Episode1 sneak peak

You Found Me – The Fray

As a big fan of Lost, this video really gets me excited. One of the best feature of Lost is that it keeps giving you clues and makes you wonder. What does 4 8 15 16 23 42 mean? What is the black smoke? Where did the island go? The show will on air January 22th, 2009

It will probably take me hours to find out what actually behind the scene of this video.

Anyone here is a Lost fan?
