So Chinese New Years is coming up (in a little less than a week).

Are you excited!? Scared!? Don't care!?


Regardless, it's a time of celebration for a number of people as we move from the Year of the Snake to the Year of the Horse.

I'm a Rabbit, myself. What's your sign?

I am the pig! I think a water pig to be more exact. I have read into the signs before and its really interesting stuff.

Ooh, Happy Chinese New Year to everyone who celebrates it! Should we be scared, Harry? haha.

I am a Snake... I didn't realise we were in a Snake year. The horoscope stuff is pretty fun to read.

I'm a Rabbit if I remember correctly. Though I never really pay much attention to it.

Excited because I'm Asian I can get red packets (aka $$$) and visit relatives and gorge on sweet tidbits ^o^

I'm born in the year of the Ox.

Chinese New Years usually means money for me, so I'm always excited, but I've always enjoyed the it personally. Chinatown in my city is always festive, sadly there wasn't any dragon dance this year at our weekend festival, but it's always nice to listen to the classical chinese music that plays.

I'm a rabbit, too. There's apparently a lot of them lol.

Years ago, my cousins (who are of Chinese decent, but mostly American) thought I was Chinese because my skin turned red while we were up in their play house-thing and they thought only theirs did because they thought only the Chinese turned red. It took us an hour to figure out that it was actually the sun shining through a red tarp-like cover over the play house.

And that's the closest I've ever been to the Chinese culture.

I'm a Dog. Not bad, considering my brother ended up as a Rat. XD

As for Chinese New Years, I don't really pay too much attention to it.
