Chinese New Year Tradition

[Ed W]

In my Chinese class on saturday we had a long discussion about chinese new year and what happens in the family during this period. I found some good links that closely resemble our discussion and thought i'd post em to people could get an idea why we dont hear much from our lady's during this time.

Was going through some Youtube archives and thought I would share this commercial with you guys.  Petronas is an oil company from Malaysia.  Every year they release commercials for some of the major holidays there.  One of those holidays is Chinese New Year.  Now, the reason I bring this up is because the commercial I am posting I think represents something we could all benefit from.  I would suggest you watch it, especially those of you who have have not had a chance to talk to your ladies...There will be tests, but I won't be the judge...
