weirdest Christmas ever
i called it "weired", purely bacause i actually felt the Christmas this year--at least much more than before.
in China, we don't have Christmas, for the resaon everybody knows. but Chinese, especially young Chinese seem quite crazy about Christmas celebration.
I was ready for the party on 24th, but those who are supposed to "have wild party" told me it's the time to stay with family rather than going out. Yes, Chinese just use Christmas as an excuse. :)
today, we went to Tas (a AIESEC trainee in Beijing)'s place. I went there a little bit late, when i arrived, everybody's already exchanging gifts (so sweet~). people were drinking, talking, eating until late night. afterwards, we planed to go to luch to chill out, but the ever lasting Christmas song drove us crazy--Christmas, Christmas everywhere, even it's 11:00pm on 25th.
but one thing i really like is that through constantly talking to different people from different country, i am actually getting to understand the world from different perspective--though it's sometimes tough, and annoying.
Juan, Birtan and I have been watching movies for 3 nights while other people in our team are enjoying their holidays all around the world. i just learned about a word coming from taiwan called "zhai nva"(宅女，girls who stay at home all day), it's sad to find myself part of this group--am i too lazy? am i anti-social? should i force myself to go out more???
he's having his Christmas holidays at home, where there's no internet access, too bad, but i will survive.
we are having MC Christmas holiday as well, but i felt extremely guity to having this holiday. i feel like going to the office, and i actually did it this afternoon.
planning to go to Shanghai this weekend for new year party with Primrose, it's going to be wild ;)
i hope it won't be that freezing by that time, good luck
