Blog
Welcome to my web site. I've put a lot of work into this site for my family and friends and anyone else passing by to see what I've been up to out here. The biggest and best part of the site is my photo album which has been buiding for over seven years now. My newest hobby is videography. I used to work a camera for a big pentacostal church years ago before I was Orthodox, and I recently got a used miniDV camera and picked up on it again. All the videos I've done so far are in the blog, click on the video catagory to see the list. Please leave a comment to let me know what you thought of them. The newest feature here is a pop-up music player just below. Please feel free to e-mail me with any questions or comments.
Enjoy it,
Seraphim

One Year

I just noticed that I've now been blogging for one year. All that time, and this is just blog #20. Not much happen around here for me to write about. Some times I feel like when Homer Simpson read a fortune cookie:

"'Today will be a day like any other day.' D'oh! It just keeps getting worse!"

I really don't like to spend that much time on the internet. After I spent a full month making the web site a year ago I've hardly touched it. I haven't even changed the Greek and Russian spellings of my name, both of which are wrong. Changing it is more work than it sounds like.

Chinese New Year and Lantern Festival

Chinese have a word: "re nao" that they use often to describe a good celebration. It's one of those words that doesn't really translate in the fullest sense. I think it would literally translate as "hot time" but it seems to be used for the concept of "noisy fun." To have both a good Chinese New Year and Lantern Festival a lot of re nao is needed. I've left both videos with the soundtrack mostly untouched, edited only for smoothness, so you can get the full sense of a Chinese celebration.

Both holidays were last month so I'm a little late getting this done.

Enjoy!
