What I Learned on Sunday

If you weren't already aware, Chinese New Year is this Thursday. I had always assumed that, like the western New Year, it is celebrated at midnight local time. Apparently, however, from what I gathered in talking to an international student, no matter where you are, the Chinese year starts when it's midnight in China. Although I'm guessing China has multiple time zones, so I'm not exactly sure how that works.

Nathan,
You need to update your blog! You haven't learned anything since February 3rd! :)

Goodness, you're right, I do! I have learned much, but life has come at me faster than I can process it into text lately. I'm working on it, though, and should have something tomorrow (I wrote it tonight, but I think I should proofread it, and I'm too tired for that tonight).

Thanks for the encouragement, though!
