Happy Chinese New year

I celebrated chinese new year with my friend in china town. There was so crowded .
Fortunately one of my friend work at TV program company . That's why we could get into the new year's event hall .
There were a lot of singapore TV star , actor , actress and musician on the stage . When they counted down there was fire works, bakuchiku and tons of crackers .
It was very exciting and fun . I was feeling like becomeing a chinese .
But anyway I couldn't understand the story about the some of events .
Because mostly they spoke in chinese .
So I am thinking that I should study not only english but also chinese .
It's going to be fun .
