Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! -- Shirley's 608th Friendly Greeting - Dec 25, 2022

Hi,Dear Friends

Merry Christmas and happy New Year!

Time flies, and a year will pass very quickly. What's the best and worst thing for you in 2022? What do you plan to do in the upcoming 2023?

On my side, the best thing about 2022 is that I got my Australian green card, and the worst experience of this year is that I had to give up the opportunity to study at the China National Academy of Painting although I had gotten the admission letter and paid the tuition. Now I have been quarantined for six days because the result of my nucleic acid testing was positive on December 18. Anyway, after experiencing fever, cough, sore throat and hoarseness, etc., I am feeling much better now and I will do two more nucleic acid tests tomorrow and next Monday, and if it is negative, I will be fine and can take care of my father again.

In 2023, I will have to do much, but the first thing I need to do is to arrange my father's life; then I will think of returning to Springfield, Missouri (if it is possible), and settling down in Sydney and trying to extend my cross-cultural and comprehensive art dream to Australia...

With a delight and grateful heart to God and all the people who have helped me in the past year, I would really like to wish you a merry Christmas and a happy New Year!

What about you? What are the best and worst things about you in 2022? Do you have any special goals and dreams in the upcoming 2023?

Sincerely, I am just a student on Arts of Painting, Music, English and Management,and work on the web site in my free time. I would really like to do something with what I have learned, to make this little web site to be a little Electronic Bridge of Cross -cultural and Comprehensive Art Study and Chinese Language Learning, to help the others while to improve myself.

I would like to appreciate you for your good understanding, directions, supports and help.

If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, you are welcome to write to info@ebridge.cn .
