“Whizzzzzzzzzz…BANG!” Yes, it’s that time of year again. A time where streets are lit up with bright flamboyant lights, sounds of crackling fireworks can be heard a mile away; smells of freshly baked moon cakes play with our nostrils, and the laughter of jovial people fill the air. No, it’s not Christmas, New Year’s Eve, Thanksgiving, or Labor Day. It’s the Chinese New Year! This is a time where all worries and sorrows are left behind and the only rule is to be merry and celebrate. Each year represents a different animal of the Chinese Zodiac and this New Year is the year of the Dragon. 

Why is the Chinese New Year so awesome? Three reasons: 1) It tells of an amazing origin of the Chinese culture, 2) It is when Chinese cooking and cuisine goes all out, and 3) We celebrate it with our own style and flare. Chinese New Year one of the most amazing holidays known to man and that’s a fact. When we celebrate the Chinese New Year, we are celebrating China’s rich, fascinating, acclaimed culture.

I’m not Chinese by the way but I always love to celebrate the holiday with my family and friends. Chinese New Year would definitely a great holiday for me since our company won’t be operational for two consecutive days which means I can have a good rest and hang around. I might also spend sometimes to develop the entire site. Conversing with my co-authors and editors so that we can come out and share more ideas on how to grow our site is the main important thing that I have in mind now.

Well, we just need to relax and cheerfully celebrate as we welcome the year of the dragon. Join me for fun and adventure during the holiday. Yours truly will have a short coverage in celebrating the holiday here in Singapore so watch out for the next article with exciting photos! Kung hei fat choi!
