A card I have received
There is a beautiful card which I have been keeping for years.It was from my best friend Martina,my former colleague.I received it 4 years ago from overseas on Chinese New Year's Eve,unexpectedly.Oh what a surprise that was!When I opened the pink hand-made envelope,I saw a light purple card with "Happy New Year" on it in Chinese characters.And it was written by her!How sweet she was to do it for me and to make me this happy!Imagine a girl from Germany asking her Chinese private tutor to teach her Chinese calligraphy and then using it to celebrate Chinese New Year with her friend from another continent!This is wonderful and this is magic.Until today I can not forget her and her card with her Chinese best wishes.I think I will try my best to learn some German words and write her back before the next German New Year!
