Lunar New Year: Year of the Horse

This past Friday was the beginning of the Lunar New Year and I was fortunate enough to be home with my family for the weekend.  We did the usual; lots of food, gambling, and family.  Needless to say, we had a good time.

Predictions about this Year of the Horse:

It is their order to encounter the Year of Birth (Benming Nian), a year to

offend “Taisui’, the god in charge of people’s fortune. In 2014, their fortune

in all aspects will fluctuate, so will require great care. They may feel more

stressed out, in which case they are advised to talk about it with close friends

or councilors, and take part in group activities. Faced with any difficulties,

they should be strong to overcome them all. If they treat people around

them friendly and behave righteously, they will get through the year smoothly.

It's always nice to be home for the start of the new year, but it makes it that much harder to get into the mood for school.  I'll be sure to let you all know when that happens.

But as for the readers, I wish you all happiness and success throughout this upcoming year.
