Chinese holidays are quite different with the ones we have back home. Philippines usually have short holidays whereas here, it sometimes lasts for a few days up to a month (e.g. Chinese New Year).
Working in a language school, we sometimes don't follow the exact number of days for some of the holidays because we usually adjust to our students' holiday schedule in their regular schools. Schools in China like doing make-up classes. Whenever there's a holiday and there's no classes on those days, they make sure to have advance make-up classes for the kids. When regular schools do that, class schedule in our school gets affected. So we also need to adjust our schedule to make sure that we still stay on schedule.
Since we're expected to work on May 1st, the school decided to give us a 5-day holiday from April 26 - 30. The first day of our break, the Aston gang decided to go bowling and had dinner outdoors.
