As the Spring Festival celebrations end, many Chinese are finding it a struggle to cope with a return to regular life. Li Lianxing reports.
As the Lantern Festival looms, officially marking the end of the fortnight-long lunar new year celebrations, many Chinese are struggling to shake off the holiday mood. Qian Jiale, an engineer with a Beijing construction company, says he is finding it challenging to concentrate on his daily routine and finds he can't fall asleep until late at night.
"It feels really awkward," says the 26-year-old, who spent the Spring Festival in his hometown of Wuxi, in East China's Jiangsu province.
