My first overseas Chinese New Year
Entering Singapore with a vivid dream, I find everything around me is totally new, fantastic, but also unfamiliar. Although there are many Chinese in Singapore, I notice that the Chinese New Year here is not that grand compared with it in China. To be honest, I felt very lonely and all that in my mind were warm pictures when I was celebrating the Chinese New Year with my parents in China until one day my host family asked me if I was willing to join in a party to celebrate the Chinese New Year with them. I was so happy and came to their family with my friends. Their house was so big and nice that I could not believe my eyes. The whole family were really enthusiastic and treated us with a buffet which included an unfamiliarly special dish named "Lao Yu Sheng" that we should eat while saying some lucky words. All the dishes were really tasty and after eating we sang many Chinese songs together. We all appreciated a lot because the whole family treated us as their real family members. The way back to my hostel, I was surprised to find all my loneliness had dissolved and aware that how lucky I was in such a good country with such good people during my first overseas Chinese New Year. 
That is also the first Chinese New Year that I spent overseas. I felt so sad when it was coming， but finally I had a good time with my seniors.
