Yesterday, the whole country celebrated the new lunar calendar year or more popularly known as Chinese new year. Sounds of gaiety and live music echoed in most streets where people enjoyed the celebration with their families. This particular celebration has been adapted worldwide as Chinese communities can be found on almost all parts of the world. My aunt, who always celebrated Chinese new year gave us, her nephews and nieces with red envelope coupons. She secretly placed it in our pockets while we were all having fun. It was our youngest cousin that noticed my aunt’s present and to our surprise, we received bountiful gifts when we opened the envelopes. We shared dinner together as we share funny stories.
