In this sophisticated world, one often finds oneself in a struggle with power, fame, money,
attention and many other unnecessary entities of life. I seek to find a simple life, uncomplicated
yet meaningful. A lot more important elements of life are waiting to be discovered. Live your life to the fullest.

Mid Autumn Festival
Whatever you like to call it. Mooncake festival or Mid Autumn festival or even Yue Bing Jie. When I was really really young, I used to buy those battery operated lanterns. Because it is too bright during the day, me and my brothers would arrange to wake up during the middle of the night to just play with the lanterns. Walking around the house in the dark with the lantern on seems so much fun. Some years I would cry because I failed to wake up and miss the night of fun. When I was slightly older, I liked to go to the playground with my friends to play with candles. Each of us will have one big box of candles and we will just find one spot to light them up and form different shapes and letters. Seeing them melt into wax is such a joyous act to us at that time. When I get even older, sometimes I would arrange with some friends to go to the park to see people play with candles and carry lanterns. I think I spend two years of mid autumn festival at soen's house where the group of us have so much fun over the lantern competition and stuffs like that. Today is mid autumn again. Don't seem to have the mood this year round. Hope to be able to spend it with my beloved one the next year. TOP OF PAGE |
