The first full-moon-night of the year of dragon
Today is the fifteenth day of Chinese Lunar New Year, and tonight is the first full-moon night of this new year, it is the well known of Lantern Festival.
People eat yuanxiao (or tangyuan) today, and go out to celebrate at night. There are many kinds of beautiful ornate lanterns hanging outside. Children play under the lanterns and solve riddles on them. The celebration will last until midnight.
I remember when I was young, grandpapa would make a lantern for me by himself every Lantern Festival. The lantern was much more simple and crude than a store-bought one, but I liked it. I couldn't help lighting it even though the sun was still hanging in the sky. I would walk around my village and show my lantern all the night. In my memory, the surroundings were dark, but my lantern was shining……
The Lunar New Year is a proper noun, so each word is capitalized.
"much more simple and crude than..." or "much simpler and cruder than."
