Chinese New Year was a couple of weeks ago and I had the honor to celebrate this with my friend Hanna who's been in China for almost a year.

We ate good, drank delicious beverage and even got gifts.

This is some stuff that we learned about the holiday:

1. At the Chinese New Year there's a monster that rise from the sea and hunts all living things on land.

2. This monster is only afraid of the color red and loud noise.

3. So therefor you put up signs with this on your doors and dress in cloths with this color to keep it away, along with blowing fireworks for at least two weeks. (Also dress in gold for fortune)

4. Children achieve money in an envelope from their parents and relatives.

5. Chinese New Year is the biggest holiday in China. It's bigger then Christmas and even Birthdays.
