Today is traditionally the big cleanup day before Chinese New Year.  I actually started doing some cleanup yesterday and just barely got my bedroom and studio cleaned up before dinner tonight.

My family picked tonight to have our family dinner before CNY, I was feeling a bit annoyed the whole night because I never really liked dining out with crowds of people on the streets during the holidays.  Besides, I kind of wanted to join a soccer game after dinner and the restaurant was particularly slow in serving the plates… ended up being late for the game.

Nonetheless, I’m glad that I have this little quiet late night in my cleaned up studio to gather up my thoughts and write this post.
