So Many Festivals Come Together
When it comes to the end of a year, we are immerged in the happiness of festival celebrations that come one after another. The Winter Solstice( around December 22), Christmas and New Year Festival come almost together.
Since we have already celebrated Chiristmas in advance, we don’t have party at the Christmas Eve. But we will have dinner on the Winter Solstice evening together eating dumplings like most Chinese families will do one the very day. It is believed that one can save his ears from frostbite by eating the ear-shaped dumpling. Cute excuse for having a good meal, isn’t it?
However, what I think is the most enjoyable factor of the dinner is to have a chance to get all the members of our class together to stay together for a dinner like a family. Because most of us are from other provinces far from Shannxi, we may miss our families very much especially on occasion of the traditional festival. It would be quite nice to feel like being at home on campus. What’s more, I think these sweet moments will become permanent memory planted in our mind ever after.
