小(xiǎo)年(nián)夜(yè) KTV
The 23rd day of the 12th month in the Chinese lunar calendar is called the Preliminary Eve traditionally. There is a little different between Northern China and Southern China. For south of Chinese, people have 24th as Preliminary Eve.
It is a time when Chinese people offer sacrifices to the Kitchen God. On 23rd of December, the Kitchen God is head up to report his sum of the year in the folk to the Heaven Emperor. People believe that the Kitchen God could bring them good wishes. They will make Tanggua, a kind of sugar snack, for the Kitchen God. Nowadays, most families just cook delicious food for themselves to enjoy. In some parts China, people also clean their homes thoroughly, including their clothes and bedclothes. People also maintain a tradition of cutting their hair on this day.
After Preliminary Eve, people often begin preparing for the Chinese New Year. This is called seeing the New Year in. For our Omeidians of Omeida Chinese Academy, we cleaned our school and classrooms on Preliminary Eve. We scheduled how to celebrate a Chinese New Year with all Omeidians from all over the world. We learnt that how the Chinese Spring Festival begins in a traditional way. After school cleaning, we went to Yangshuo West Street for a Karaoke celebrating Preliminary Eve.
