i think chinese tradition, teenagers like us now are not really catching up with it. i mean, ya, for me, even the basic of chinese new year about exchanging the mandarin orange
(yucks. i so wanna get rid of those in my house. i find it stinks. so, still need me to elaborate more on the taste?), i didnt know until like....
recently. call me dumb, i admit i am. i mean perhaps my mum arent really sooooo into such tradition, more like she's into simplicity which is very good. only my dad. but well, i love him, so what to do? i so remember the fact that his face will blacken when he saw my outfit being
BLACK on cny, just to go along with my clothings perhaps. i love black because it makes me slimmer. but ifi can, i would rather have my clothings in varied colours like
purple red white pink blablabla. ok. is not like i arent wearing them now but errr. okok. whatever. i dont know what i am typing.
as what i was about to mention, i only love chinese new years because of
mainly new clothes sponsored totally by my parents dear and the yummy yummy goodies.i dont really like visitings though especially if to some stranger house.
anyway, yeah, last night was some err. festival? or i dont know. just some prayers session my dad had cos of some chinese new year custom of his religion?
i remembered me and my mum ever joked about my dad praying to the moon. :X of course my dad werent around to hear this. if not, oh no. no offense to anybody who is also into such stuff. ok. seriously i dont know anything about it, or why its a need to pray.
but anyway, i find it rather interesting and took some photos of it. :X
some i admit looked rather creepy. :X especially how my camera the effect turn out. (i purposely didnt use the flash, btw) i feel its like praying to the dead... :\ though i think its to the god, no? i dont know.
hmm. anyway, my olevels art i did something like this. about such prayers because i
was seriously praying and hoping the ang mohs are interested in such things. hmmm. rather proud of my work because my art teacher was surprised that i managed to use acrylic paint to do out that effect. he commented its nice after my paper!!
if only i could get it backok ya, i doubt i will follow my dad's footstep. but i feel kinda sad in a way, like i arent respecting him. but i just wanna save the hassle!
the ceremony was like my dad lighted up a jossstick. then i just kneel in front of the praying table (
its my dining table actually but he go shift it yesterday for that praying thing) and i just errr. said my prayers. and my dad waved that lil paper doll girl in front of me and back. he claimed it/she/dont know will give me luck.
HOPEFULLY AH. I REALLY NEED IT. MAYBE LAST NIGHT MIGHT NOT BE A RIDICULOUS THING AFTER ALL?i guessed thats about it. shall sleep early tonight!!!! for exams sake.
I am bleeding inside.
