Celebrations are always very different when you read stories of them, watch movies about it, and on social networks too.
1. Fireworks
It's not like this all the time:
The reality:
Here's a more awesome video of some epic Pop pop playing.
2. Lion dances
This is nice isn't it?
The reality: we'll just pop over to the neighbour's to check it out.
3. New clothes
The reality: Nope. Just stuff no one remembers or haven't seen you in before!
4. Snacks
The reality: You're really just aiming one: your favorite.
5. Lots of money!
The reality: It gets less every year.
6. Lots of money! (again)
The reality: You're married and you're giving it out this time.
7. Don't clean your house on the first day of Chinese New Year
The reality: Seriously, you're not going to clean it after 50 people just came over?
8. Not washing your hair, cutting your nails..
The reality: I don't think so.
9. 14 days of awesome celebration!
The reality: You're exhausted of one already. Another 13 more to go?
