Compare and contrast : Larry( with Christmas and Cny )
Comparing: Chinese New Year and Christmas:

->The difference with how Jess and myself together with my family celebrate starts with we normally visit the relative which has the biggest , most unique , or the most elegant one when we celebrate christmas, normally then, we would be consuming a huge feast to fill out big appetite. Then when the clock finally strikes 12am , we would finally gather our presents and sometimes even open it secretly! This is totally unlike Jess who does not even celebrate it! This is very surprising, such a celebration should be celebrated by most of the world. Perhaps it is the distance which prevents him and his relatives to be celebrating christmas. It is such a pity that Jess does not get a chance to celebrate such a wonderful event.

chinese new year - Elroy
i would go visiting on that day and get alot alot of angpaos , this would be added up and worth up to couple of hundred dollars!! Normally i would save and purchase something of my desire with this amount of money. Now back to Chinese New year we would visit relatives and respect them by giving them oranges , those married would give us ang paos ( red packets ) =) !!

Comparing how my family and I celebrate Christmas differs from Jess.
During Christmas, we usually go to someone's house and celebrate Christmas together with food and snacks..
The one thing I love most about Christmas is that, I would get presents!
We usually celebrate with all our relatives! My father's side on the first day, and my mothers side on the second day.
But Jess, however, only celebrates Christmas with his family and not his relatives...
Thats all :D

About Chinese new year (Mai Sheng)

I can think when the last time I celebrated Chinese new year was very fun
I eat traditional things like bak kwa and pineapple tarts. On the first day
of new year, I collected red packets of up to $110. I bought some games
with it so I’m left with none. i had gathering with my whole family and we
had a great time together. Doing these things made time flies very fast and
in 15 days, new year was over…. It was sad but I had to let new year get over
because I was having examinations. I wish that new year could be longer as
I love them as they are very interesting and fun.

c) 2 Festivals which we all have celebrated
Well, we are all Chinese in this group, so we don't celebrate some festivals..
Two festival we all celebratebre is Chinese New Year and Lantern Festival.
On Chinese New Year, we celated it by going to friends and relative house.
We had fun at their houses and we collecting red packets and ate traditional
food like bak kwa. On Lantern Festival, we had fun eating mooncakes and
playing lanterns. We also go to relatives house and ate a feast over at their
house as there are lots of fish and meat. Sometimes we even had steamboats.
We even got things like abalone and shark fin. Some of our cousins are young
and they like playing lanterns so we had to join in because they would feel
lonely. So this is basically how we celebrate Chinese New Year and Lantern
Festival.

Well, comparing how my family and I celebrate Christmas is different from Jess..
During Christmas, we usually go to someone's house and celebrate Christmas together!
We first have dinner after that we all hand out around the younger one's go to a room and talk and stuff.. After that, we all would go down and give out presents! But for Jess, he don't celebrate Christmas with his relatives.. Maybe its because they all live far away..

A festival that I celebrate - ryan
Chinese New Year is a festival that I celebrate! Usually going around and collecting red packets.. And this year my parents allowed me to spend a small sum of my collected money, and if you know me well enough, you will know what i'll be getting :D
On the first day, my family and I would go to my dad's family's houses and after that, around evening, to my mother's side.. On the second day, we usually go to my Mother's aunt house where I see people I don't know..Usually thats all we visit on the second day.. But this year, on the second day, we visited my Mothers old friend! Usually we visit them sometime later..
Two days ago, my mothers side, came over to my place, and we all had a great time.. They came around noon and stayed till night around 9... My cousin wanted me to teach him some recording of music stuff, so we spend most of the time in the study room, where the computer is.. On the third day, we had a family dinner at a restraunt.. We told jokes and stuff and had a great time!
Until today, although 10 days after Chinese New Year has past, there are still some people whom we've not visited and who has not visited us too! I look forward for them to come and to visit..
I also look forward to Chinese New Year next year!
Chinese New Year is fun!
And another reason why I like Chinese New Year is because I don't have to go to school!!! Haha.. And unlike other years, this year Chinese New Year was on Thursday so after Friday was Saturday.. Well, I think thats about it :D
