Blog 2 the second month in Singapore


In this month, I experienced my first Spring Festival away from home.  Although it’s a pity that I can’t celebrate it with my family, this Chinese New Year is really interesting and special.

On the Lunar New Year Eve, we celebrate together with our seniors from Jilin University. They prepared many delicious foods for us, snakes, drinks, and dumplings.  We played games, watched movies and the Spring Festival Gala together.  Actually I thought this gala was not as good as I had expected. 

On the Lantern Festival, I and my roommates bought some rice balls and cooked them in the microwave oven.  We failed several times because all of us hadn’t cooked it in a microwave oven, but at last we finally succeeded.  Those were the most delicious rice balls I have ever eaten because we cooked it by ourselves. 

Besides, I also visited our host family during the Chinese New Year.  They are a kind couple with a little smart son. The hostess cooked very delicious dinner for us.  During her cooking, the host chatted with us and taught us how to play “Jungle speed” -- a kind of card game. It is very interesting and we really had a great time that night.  Before we were leaving, they invited us to join in a game on February, we accepted it and I’m looking forward to it.

This month is full of joy and I enjoy living there in Singapore very much!
