Facing forward / facing backward

对！朝前 cháoqián and 朝后 cháo hòu

Ooh, that hurt! >.<

But I have to cry some anyway because I live in the northern part of Sweden, and my house doesn't have TV3.

God fortsättning :)

dunderklumpen,

I think you might have been studying Chinese for too long and have begun to forget about our Swedish traditions ;) Ivanhoe and Skijumping is for New Year's Day, of course!!

I can't seem to remember any Christmas concert, but there will be a New Years concert on New Year's Day with the Wiener philharmonics. Oh, and if you happen to live in the southern parts, you can watch the skijump on Danish television...

God fortsättning!

Hi simon and dunderklumpen

"Chiristmas Eve" is translated as "平安夜" (Silent Night) in Chinese, but in reality it isn't a silent night anymore, hehe. Have good holidays!

Hehe, changye, I had an overdose of social gathering yesterday so now I'm back at my place just relaxing :) Simon is right; -no traditions attached to Christmas Day in Sweden, except for watching Ivanhoe, skijumping from Garmisch-Partenkirchen and the christmas concert of the Wiener philharmonics. All of which have been discontinued in swedish TV. 哭死了！

Changye: I don't really have much to do on Christmas Day. It's a holiday in Sweden, but there aren't really any traditions attached to it. All the actual Christmasy things like presents, big meal with the family and all that jazz was yesterday, on Christmas Eve. Only chumps celebrate on Christmas Day.

haha..I was going to say the same thing.  I thought I was the only one here "messing around".

Hi guys

What on earth are you doing here on Christmas day? Learning Mandarin?

yes cháoqián

Don't you mean "cháoqián"?
