恭喜,恭喜,恭喜你!

Just in case anyone get the wrong idea... No, I'm not celebrating chinese new year.

Rather, I wish to make use of this opportunity to congratulate 2 of my friends who will be making the short trip to Seattle come April.

Haha, on hindsight, it was pretty bad manners for me to blast out on my unhappiness before I congratulate the winners 1 day later. Paiseh paiseh.

I just came back from Can 14.

Walked through the NIE campus on my way back to my second home.

They put up light decorations in an attempt to inject life and festive spirit into the enviorment, I think.

The place was still very dark, and lonely.

But yes, it was pretty good to look at.

It ironic that everything Chinese New Year is supposed to stay for doesn't work for me.

Celebration, reunion, festive mood.... Damned!

Gotta keep myself busy these days.
