Chinese New Year Eve in Aussie

Goodness!!! It's the first time I am not staying with my family. I just finished phoning to my parents. It is the holiday beginning in Taiwan now, so I am a littile bit alone in Aussie. Although I can hear from people that there are many celebrations in China Town or Sunny Bank( Little Taipei ), I still prefer living in Taiwan rather in Aussie.


However, my sharemate, Carol, and I have been making a Hot Pot Party in our House. We invited our own classmates and went to buy some ingredients of Hot Pot in supermarket. Unfortunately, it was raining cats and dogs after school. Therefore I called Carol and asked her if we made a party today or not. Unexpectedly, she told me that it wasn't raining in the city. Suddenly, I made up my mind to continue this plan.

Aussie bus system always confuses me by their punctual conception and manners. In Taiwan, if the drivers have been seeing you running to catch up the bus. They certainly would stop and wait for you. I have never ever seen this circumstance in Aussie. Even I was one of the victims. Once...oh no...twice, I had arrived a bus station at 8:10am, but it was really exaggerated that the electronic board showed buses' arrival time 8:15, 8:20, 8:30, 8:40am. All of them weren't coming until an office lady called the Transportation. Few minutes later, they sent another bus there. Today I confronted the same condition again, so I went to the city late.

Eventually, we bought everything and cooked and ate in out house. In Taiwan, we need to have a dinner together. Therefore, we just set up this atmosphere of Chinese New Year Eve. It has been passing 12:00 to 7th Feb. In convention, we always hold our age until next day. In New Year have new hope, I will be better and better.^_^
