Merry Christmas! The Christmas Eve arrives.
I’d like to send my Christmas gifts to a lot of people. As the saying: “Friends are the flowers in the garden of lives.” I love all my “flowers”. Merry X’mas to them.
Merry Christmas to Carroll and Jim . You gave me most of the “Christmas feeling” for sending me may X’mas greetings and inviting me to the trimming tree party. Hope you have a wonderful new year.
Merry Christmas to my friends in San Jose – RC , Nancy , Yumi , Selim , Dan , Max , Erik , Tom , Richard, Rachael, Jacob… The list is too long that I cannot put all names, but X’mas means a lot and give me the opporunity to say how I am happy to be able to be part of this big family.
Also to my friends in San Francisco: Tom (BV Capital), other friends in BV I met in my last trip there, Andreas , Jing , Nina (KQED), Christ (Rojo), and Ginger (Six Apart). 16 hours later, the Christmas eve will shift to San Francisco. Merry X’mas to you!

My friends in Hangzhou – Huangwei and Pan Xiaowei (edushi)…
Last but not least, to Wendy . I don’t need to put it here, since we are just back from Christmas Eve Celebrate for only two of use.
Ops. It was already a long list, but it is only very small part of people I want share the happiness of a holiday with. (Sorry if your name is not here, or not in a way that you can easily discover. It is only the top of mind names at in a massy brain of about 1:00 AM). I cherish every day we spent together and expecting for great years to come. When I was at Carroll’s party, many of hers and Jim’s friends went to the party almost every years in the last 35 years! What an accomplishment. I cannot imagine that before to have close and sincere friends for that long period of time. What I learnt was, to cherish every friendship I have and maintain it as long as life lasts…
Look back, I am proud to see how many brililiant friends I have in my garden of life. I hope I am also one of the flower in yours.
Merry Christmas, Jian Shuo!
All the best for a healthy and happy New Year!
What a beautiful way to express your love and friendship for others, Jian Shuo. I have no doubht that 35 years (and more!) from now many of those same names will continue to hold a special place in your heart.
Holiday Hugs,
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas, Jian Shuo!
Dear Jian Shuo Wang,
I found your blog while trying to gather information on the Pudong Airport. I will arrive there in four days. You blog is by far the best source of information I’ve found, and I wanted to drop you a note thanking you for all the help. I feel a lot more comfortable about my first trip to China–I am very excited about visiting Shanghai
I don’t speak or read Chinese and hope that simply handing a taxi driver a piece of paper with my hotel name and address in central Shanghai is going to do the trick (written in Chinese).
Thanks again and Merry Christmas,
Tony
Merry Christmas Jian Shuo!
Merry X’mas, RC.
