Chinese new year.

Yesterday was Chinese new year day. When I was young I quite liked this day cos there is a traditional that parents and older relative must give money to children in their family. It’s call “lucky money”, and we also believe that the more we give, the more we get.
Another thing that I like was the food. We cook lots of food and everyone in our family come to eat together. I love my mum food. I remember the boiled chicken with jasmine rice and fish sauce. It’s very simple but it’s so delicious.
But now I’m in London. And there aren’t celebrate this day except in China town. I wouldn’t have realised if my Chinese friend hadn’t told me.
Anyway I didn’t feel anything special, it was a normal day that I didn’t work.
I just enjoyed eating and shopping with my friends.
It’s just one day in a year.
