It was past 12am, it is also the 9th day of the Chinese lunar calendar, and it is also a ‘big’ day for the Hokkien Lang (people). The sound of the fireworks has not been silence since 12am. I was sitting in front of the laptop hearing the so called ‘music’ playing repeatedly.
I hope that I could join them for the celebration. It looks just too tempting, the fireworks playing non-stop. :)
As time goes by which mean I am growing older, this kind of celebration is just getting less and less involve. I remember when I was a kid and a teen, I used to have a group of friends that we will meet up and go to each friend’s house, gathered with their family during Chinese New Year. In one way you may say, the purpose may not just greet but is to get more ang pow. (That’s right!!!, I totally agreed.) ;) On the other hand, I think it is good that we go to our friend’s house to gather with their family to received ‘blessing’ (ang pow), because it shown that we remembered them. and yet it is also part of our culture. :)
I miss out all the funniest thing in my teen life, time will not go backward. Therefore, I will try to available myself in the future so that I won’t miss out the fun in life as I am heading to my adulthood. :)
Cheer, life is still bright even without the funniest stuffs. :)
It is now 12.30am. The firework’s sound is dimming. :)
