Happy chinese new year everyone!

I'm Chinese, so I guess I'm obligated to wish everyone a happy Chinese New Year. :icon_wink

 

I'm Cham too and it's our new year too! plus i think it's also Vietnamese Tet new year so Chuc mung nam moi!

You can take out the numbers, I thought they were important till my friend explained that you don't need them.

 

I'm 1/4 Chinese! Happy new year! I don't celebrate it though but ya!

 

The numbers are actually quite important, as they indicate the tone.

 

Sorry I mean to say most people don't know what the numbers mean.

 

Happy Chinese New Year!
