Saving up:

Some knowledge u SHOULD noe:
Sunday, August 27, 2006
Yesterday a & m suan me, i chinese yet dunnoe own tradition. =( They were saying tis year Chinese 7th month is 2 months. It kinda shocked me because i never heard of such thing be4.. (lolx)

They were not right but not fully wrong either. I wasnt satisfied with their answer because i dont see ppl make offerings on the street already. Even my flat below has removed the small shrine for offerings to the God.

So i went to ask my mummy about tis & she say, " siao? where got ppl pray 2months of chinese ghost festival one?" Later then i found out, some mistaken its 2months because of the way the chinese lunar calender writes. Every 3 years, the chinese calender wrote 7month like as tho its 2 months BUT the fact is, the whole ghost festival thing is only 1 month no matter which year it is.

And if some of u thinkin why am i makin such a big deal abt tis?
Heres my reason:
I'm a chinese, if i dunnoe a simple chinese tradition thing like tis, am i ought to be ashamed of myself? Next time (if)ur kids or some other races who wan to noe abt chinese culture ask & u dunnoe anything, dont u think its veri paiseh?

Summore, i have some incidents with this festival thing be4, which yq noe abt it. I think got time or if ur interested in my real life "stories" then i tell.

Oh and u can choose not to believe in such things but u should always respect the dead!
