I have been missing you all on ifgogo.com. Is there anything I can do to help you think of topics to discuss? What happened to everyone? I've learned that its hard to stay blogging, it takes self-discipline and a love for whatever it is that you are blogging about. With group blogs, its hard to figure out how to focus the blog on a specific style or topic so readers understand what the blog is about. We are going through some hard thinking about this topic over at CNReviews.com. Should I sign up as an author and post some questions for people to answer? It seems like there is a lot of willingness to comment here at ifgogo.com once someone has already blogged.

Surely you young generation won't face those hard days again！

However, everyone has his own problems or issues, as life is an experience for which the more you bump into, the more you gain the knowledge or feelings. Right?

Hi Mum. I have read the whole story, which I have heard from you when I was yound, and I am moved again. I think those hard times that peopel in your age have been through can also be a fortune dispite its negative impacts. You should tell us more about that and show how tough and tenacious your generation is. I would like to show my respect to you all.....

Life goes ahead as it is, from the past to the future.

So, the important thing is to spend well on each day with your own management and its achievements. Thus, you can have a nice course of life without any regrets. I am feeling this, so I am happy although I am coming into the old age.....

Welcome Lee! :)
Actually, I knew some other Malaysian Chinese too, they are very kind and smart.
Chinese people are smart, kind and however, very glad to help the others. It's not concluded by me, but told to me by a friend of mine who's from Zambia :)

Finished reading in minutes, it was very real experience. However, the first CNY that I could remember was about in the 1990s. I loved to play with my sisters.
My mother used to tell the children some "horrible stories", though we were all afraid of the content, we still enjoyed them in some special way. That's also very funny when I looked back upon them now.
Anyway, we are still living on this world and we are going to enjoy any kind of life. Just enjoy it.

Ellliott,

Thanks a lot for your attentive reading and your comments. I surely agree with you that the more trials and sufferings you have had, the more experience of life you will get!

Though it is no longer existing now, I should still admit that I ever had a good attention and a camera-like memory in the past. So, I could remember a lot of impressed things and whenever I recall them, all the scenes at that moment appears as a old movie on... haha. However, it seems not a good thing to me. I need to forget some bad things.

My mother was an old soldier. She joined the army led by Chinese Communist Part in early Anti-Janpanese War when she was only 13 and then grew up in the troops. So, after liberation and during the early stage of social construction, she answered the Party's call and bought quite a lot of National Notes in 1950s. But I guess she never thought then one of the notes could save us in the bad days.

Anyway, that special local product named "Fried iron Sparrow", I could never forget the nice taste, though I never had it again, and I never know what it is called of "Iron Sparrow " .

Celia, you are always welcomed!

And I also found something from you what I am very familiar with. I guess it's the favorite to Literature and English. right? lol

Let's use the language to tell our own stories, which will enrich not only the colorful world, but also our own minds.

Lee Ching, Thanks for your comments! Hope you come here once more!

We Chinese people are now all over the world. No matter you were born in china or overseas. We have the same root of nation, so that we would get something in common, I bet.

Now, China is playing a more and more important role in the world affairs and this let our Chinese people feel prouder than ever before. However, it is also ask us for more responsibilities and concerns.
