Will be in the Chinese church for the Christmas dinner at 6pm. Well, yes, without a family and friends, without a car, the only place to go for Christmas is probably the church.

Recently read about Xu Zhimo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xu_Zhi_Mo

Really want to find out why he found the States "intolerable." I really miss the church choirs in St. Paul's Cathedral, Westminster Abbey and Southwark. Well, just seeing the architectures from outside would be good enough.

So far, I won't say the States is "intolerable." To me, the States is simply not my taste.
