I'm sorry to hear that. Hope he will recover soon! And I hope both of you two are well when the new year's coming.

Okay so let it travel again!

Thank you Mia! I just added mine.
It seems like I'm unable to send all at once since I didn't collect the mana before.

Thank you to all who sent me the holiday cards on DC! I'll try to send mine back :)))
P.S. I'm trying to match the ID on DC and at here...

They are so cute!! And they had already expressed the feelings in the photos xD

Well, truth be told that since this is my first time to go to China for Christmas, I will admit that I miss the Philippine Christmas festivities and traditions like simbang gabi (listening to evening Holy Mass), Noche Buena (Christmas Eve feast that lasts until midnight of Christmas) and the like. In China, they do not celebrate Christmas at all! Well, perhaps some people but I do not know.

True, we don't celebrate Christmas... But I believe Christians will still celebrate it. It depends on where you look into. Those big shopping malls should have some related decorations, but only the decorations, or pehaps some musics, aren't they?
You should go for Spring Festival, which is the biggest festival (and also, the longest vacation for working people) in China :p

Just pop up to say a Hello to all
I was on holiday (and I believe everyone was/is as well) and just came back to home. Sorry for the belated welcomes but I still hope you will like this place here!

Btw, I'm curious about the meaning of puddingbrumsel, too :p

Welcome back!

Mia, that link has expired...

Merry Christmas!

If you used the extra options to move the cloud or water the plants (both water and raindance count), snail will not show up in the next 24 hrs.

Picking the snail up reduces 2 hours of growing time each time you do it, it's very hard to have the exact timing so in some extend it is useless...but I will still use them every time...

Yeah I found this : http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsNRvOl5DSM

That sounds interesting, especially with the picture of them
The first time I've heard Nikolaus was from this video :http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7izaAGD5LcA I got confused on what is the difference between him and Santa but then I just equalised them...
Actually I quite like this song but I know someone don't like it very much...

Oh I'm sorry they were just typos I basically can't remember where the 'n' is and when I capitalised the first letter, auto-correcting didn't work. Anyway, since that made you laugh I'm not going to correct them then lol
When something are translated into Chinese they will be in completely different characters

I guess 26th Dec is just the boxing day here in UK.

Thank you all!

We don't really celebrate Christmas but as LadyNova said, Christmas became worldwide due to over-advertise and beneficial for businesses. I can still remember when I was younger (6 or 7 perhaps), I used to get some Christmas gifts from my parents and was told that they were from Satan. I believed Satan was true that time. However no longer after that my classmates reveal the truth that there was no real Satan but my parents, I got very disappointed and stop getting gifts from them as surprises. Sometimes I still get some gifts from my parents as Christmas gift or New Year gifts but it is just occasionally. We have Chinese New Year (aka. Spring Festival) instead, which is considered the biggest festival in China.

I know that here in UK, Christmas decoration begins very early. All the decorations, at least for public areas (streets, shopping malls, schools, etc) have already been done. I'm not sure if the family decoration has started yet but perhaps? I can feel the Christmas atmosphere everywhere now

It's literally my first REAL Christmas but also it's a pity that I don't have a Christmas tree to decorate...

Btw, may I see your guys Christmas trees after you finished?

I sent you the gift, dustpuppy

Btw I just think that it's impossible to be compeletly secrete...We can always know who is the gifter from flower's history, isn't it?

Thanks for sharing the knowledge :))
I thought all the Western countries have similar, if not the same, traditions for Christmas and New Year...

I might have forgotten to mention that I will leave on 17th. Hopefully I'll have internet access all the way on my trip but just in case...I'd like to send it to someone on 16th in advance

When should we start to send the gift link (especially for those who is not around on 25th)?

Thanks for heads up! Btw the ingame news works.

All options look good to me! Just count me in

Btw I'll be travelling around to France and Italy this Christmas but I can always access to Internet so it won't be a big issue I'll be back on 28th Dec. It's just a little bit tricky when counting time differences in...
