Chinese don't celebrate New Year's on january 1st, but somewhere at the end of january according to the Moon Calendar. Chinese New Year is a family holiday: you have dinner all toghether and stay at home with those you love. Fortunately for us, the clubs do offer "international New Year" parties for us!
I went to dinner with Ivan, a vegan restaurant we had been before that cooks an excellent eggplant! Dee was supposed to join us for dinner, but plans got a bit messy... so in the end we took a taxi back to the university, picked up Dee and took the same taxi to the party at Vplus! There we met the others to celebrate New Year's all together. :D
The next day I went to the frozen lake at the university to take some pictures and send them home as a digital New Year's card. :)
