Spent the day with the family at home like I do every year. Didn’t get a chance to go out and see the Lion Dance in Chinatown but I did catch up on my sleep this weekend.

Till this day I still don’t know how the Lunar New Years work, apparently they are a little over a month later compared to the regular calendar. I’m not a traditional guy at all. I know very little about the values of Chinese culture, my parents didn’t really teach me about it. I use to ask and they would tell me I was too young to know so I just lost all curiosity. All my friends tell me that I’m not even Asian, in a way it’s kinda true. I have more Hispanic friends than I do have Asian friends. I’m a disgrace! LOL

Yep, this year is the year of the Pig. Google does a good job of keeping up with Holidays! Well, it’s time to hop back on the trains, next post from Stony Brook!
