Chinese Moon Festival.

For the first time in my life, I celebrated Chinese Moon Festival. Some call it Mooncake Festival, some call it Lantern Festival, some call it Mid-Autumn Festival, but whatever you call it, as long as you understand which festival am I referring to then it should be fine. Ahahaha

So, I am a Chinese but an ABC Chinese (means has already mix with other races. Not pure Chinese. ^^).  My family still celebrate Chinese New Year. It's a must. But I don't remember celebrating any Chinese Moon Festival. I've no idea why. I don't even remember holding a lantern. Well, mooncakes, of course I've eaten before. It's a must to buy it  every year. But lantern, I've always seen it from afar. Sometimes I really feel like holding it but I don't have the chance to. At last, I managed to play with it this year and to be specific; today. I had a lot of fun!!! Thanks  to Lee Kaw Siang who invited me to join them to celebrate this festival. If not because of him, I'm sure I won't know what I'd miss. Thanks Kaw Siang!! ^^

We went around with the lanterns and sing and dance and laugh. It was a great experience. I even ate mooncake today. Eugene Lee gave me and it tasted so good! Thanks Zhe Rui. :)

Another amazing thing that happened to me today is that I got a Cheongsam from my lecturer!! Thanks Madam Jennifer! You don't know what it means to me. I mean, getting something from your beloved and respected lecturer is like WOW and plus I've been wishing to have a Cheongsam all this while so it was like a dream come true right? Extremely happy!!!!!

In conclusion, God has been good to me lately. I guess I know why. ^^
Thanks, Father! ^^
