Chinese New Year and Astronomy

Chinese New Year is a bit of an event at Macalester, given that we have a large number of students here from China.  I went to a tea social today, the first one of this semester (I was a regular at the tea socials last semester), and I was going to go to the big event they were having, but today was the first day of an astronomy research course that I have that goes from 7 to 10.   I usually don't like doing night classes, as they mess up my schedule of eating dinner super late, but the course itself seems fun.  Unfortunately, these are the sparring days at Shoreview but I won't be able to go much due to my class being at the same time.  I have quite a bit of homework to do, and I am also about to go do a midnight gym session.
