mid-autumn fest @ 09

3rd oct, 2009. 0141hour

Today is Mid-Autumn Festival or we called it TangLung Festival. In Chinese, we named it "Zhong Qiu Jie". It was one of the most important Chinese festival ( 3 most important fest = Chinese New Year, Mid-Autumn Fest and "DongZhi"* )
*During DongZhi, we eat glatinous rice ball @ tangyuan

Yesterday, purposely knock off earlier so that I can reach home and have more time with those children. We spent some good time where my nephew and niece were very happy. Though I was very tired after long working hours, is all were worth when I seen them smile happily.

As time flies, new generation will not celebrate all these traditional fest. To let them know the festival so that they can bear in mind was my another intention.

Still remember during my schooling time, we always have many activities like tanglung competition, traditional dance performance, even a "walk" on the street. This is one of the tradition, we have the responsibilities to pass it to our next generation and so on....

Wel, basically i m traditional man....haha....
