Happy Chinese New Year

[tanithryudo]

Got up at 3 AM to watch the 4x provincial spring festival galas.

I regret nothing. XD

The experience:
东方卫视 gets major props for having the best quality youtube livestream. (and fastest to update youtube with individual vids)
北京卫视 gets a + point for having a youtube livestream, but then a - point for laggy/choppy quality.
江苏卫视 does not bother with youtube as always, but picks the prettiest songs
百花迎春 ...eh, s'okay stage I guess. Point for releasing the whole show early on weibo?

The songs:
百花迎春: The nth performance of 《生活总该迎着光亮》 so nothing new there.
东方卫视: A happy-go-lucky medley collab w/ some operatic showoff. Then a very very "spring" song in 《和光同春》 with very beautiful CGI SFX.
江苏卫视: 2x Beautiful songs and stabs you in the feels.
北京卫视: Kiddie channel comedy hour, excellent coda for the "night". XDXDXD

Oh and also:
浙江卫视: Zhou Shen is not in our gala but we're gonna name-drop him anyway as going to be in our upcoming variety show.

In other news, happy new year!

I spent most of the New Year being bleeeeeeeeeh because I had the most inopportune time to get hit with the cramps. 😭 Glad to hear you had a better day than I did. 💕

Did you know traditionally the year of the tiger is considered a bad luck year? I can't wait to see how much worse things can get... 🙄 Maybe happy thoughts will ward off the bad juju.
