I know it's a few days late but 圣诞快乐(Shèngdànkuàilè)! That's Merry Christmas to you and me.
This is my apartment looking all festive. Needless to say, it doesn't look like that now after the big Christmas party...
It's been a pretty hectic month at the school(s) I teach at; preparing for the end of semester exams, Thanksgiving and Christmas activities, so I haven't really had much time for any sort of social life (beyond the occasional quick drink or meal with some of the other wàiguórén)!
But when it came to Christmas, I needed to have a break! Christmas isn't celebrated here like it is in the West. Here in China, it's just over a month away from the huge Spring Festival celebration!
This is what my housemate prepared for Xmas! A delicious Christmas buffet! (I must add I didn't take this picture, the pictures I took of that day are all too blurry due to the amount of mulled wine I drank that afternoon!)
Oh and on a final note; here's an hilarious Chinglish discovery a friend of mine found while travelling in the south of
China this month...
I hope everyone had a good Christmas!
