My friend at work asked me when the Chinese New Year day is. I guess it was
yesterday or today, something like that. When I look around the campus I saw
some postings that advertise the Chinese New Year. One thing that bothers me
is that most American friends call it "Chinese New Year Day" rather than "The
new year day of lunar calendar". Looking again the postings, I can see that
Chinese students on campus have the initiative on the parties celebrating the
New Year Day. Yes, how the day has been coined originally is so important. I
know many other Asian students also celebrate the day. I know that Chinese
students are not very dominant in other topic as much as this one. One my
tiny resolution ^^ is that I am going to use the word "New year day based on
lunar calendar" whenever I have chances.
