It seems holidays are never too long, now my spring festival holiday will finish in two days ( we will go back to work on 27th). How relaxing and cozy to stay at home, free from burden of work, no worries about complicated relations, just indulging yourself in a carefree long holiday!
Recalling the past days, I realize that I have almost done nothing else but stay with my family, watching TV programs or movies, playing cards, or going to a few spots in the city. Frank, my son, has learned how to play tractor during the days and becomes so crazy about the game. Every day, he just kept pushing us to play it with him. Obviously, the boy’s skills are improving after days of polishing.
Another thing we have done together is that we finished Cambridge English for younger learners, III(Flyers). The official test will be due in late March so we don’t have much time left. We finished the book yesterday, the last day of my spring festival holiday. It was a bit hard for the kid because we had to finish one unit every two days, but so far so good. He has mastered most of them. Most importantly, he enjoys doing it though he also complained a little sometimes.
Many things will be looming ahead of me when I go back to the office. Meetings, and preparations for our conference in the Maldives. All of these will take up a lot of time. However, as an old saying goes, well begun, half done. It’s good for me to get myself busy at the beginning of the year. As a foreign friend greeted me in his mail, “Gong Xi Fa Cai!” I’ve got to work hard, I’ve got to make more money, I’ve got to enjoy more of my life.
And I do wish every one of you would enjoy your daily life…And all the best. Just take it my late greetings for your year of the pig.
Health and happiness in the new year, my dear buddies!
