Shanghai :)

So usually during this period of time, we would be going over to the US to visit granny and grandpa (daddy's mommy and daddy), and of course, to celebrate X'mas! :)

But this year's pretty special, and we're going off to Shanghai for slightly over 4 weeks! :) So I'm seriously looking forward to that, and so this year's X'mas will be kinda different... No large family gatherings, no countless presents, no homey feeling... :(

But still, "the other set" of grandparents (mommy's daddy and mommy) are there waiting for us, and they say that it usually doesn't snow in Shanghai, but sometimes it does, so I'm seriously hoping for snow! :) I mean without  that many presents and that many family members, you've got to be kidding me if there's no snow too...

So this trip is to seriously let me experience another culture, and have a different take on how X'mas is celebrated in other parts of the world except the US, cuz I've always been celebrating X'mas there... :) So yup, we shall see what they do there in Shanghai :) Can't wait! :P

And of course, I also need to loosen up, and relax while I can, cuz when school re-opens, there will be lots and lots of hell... So I'll treasure this. :)

Anyways, I hope that I remember to take photos, cuz I always enjoy ourselves and just forget about pictures, but that is precisely what I love about myself. (hehe slightly egoistic here, please forgive me... :p) Like I always get into the moment, and don't capture the good times on photos, videos, etc, but I think that's a good thing, because memories are supposed to be remembered and treasured in our hearts, not "solidified" and turned into something physical... Hard to explain, but I love intangible things more than tangible ones, cuz to me, the most precious things should be intangible, and once they become tangible, it's not that precious anymore, like the quality is gone... I don't know, but that's only what I feel :)
