Memorable Monday

Today, I am going to share some of my experiences with family recently. Although I was unable to participate in atraditional family game night with my family, this past week, we had a lot of good times together in which we practiced effective communication. We didn’t play anyspecific games, but we shared a lot of great activities.

Over the last ten days, we celebrated the Chinese Spring Festival! My parents, my boyfriend, and my best friendever since collegeShafei, came to visit me. We cookedtraditional Chinese food together and talked a lot about the memorable things we each did within the past year.

We also found a Chinese dragon show in Chinatown andvisited the shopping mall where we saw a small concertwith performers playing Chinese music. We also saw a lot of Chinese cartoons at Disneyland and Universal Studios. Iwas so cool!

My father said it was his first time to celebrate theChinese Spring Festival in the States. There was no grandfather, grandmother and or other family memberssitting around the table. There were no fireswork after12:00 AMAnd there was no typical Chinese food on the dinner table. However, we still had fun because ourfamily could get together to talk and laugh.

Hope you had a great time playing games with your family! More importantly, I hope you got to practice your effective communication.
