Ghosts are amongst us this month!

Hello!!! How are you guys?!
I just got back from my 2 days off..
It was pretty great....hehe..


Recently, I was reminded to go back early or by 11.30pm since this month is also known as 'Ghost Month'....
it sounds scary, isn't it?!
hahhaa....
Seeing may not be believing in this case, but many chineses believe the gates of the underworld fly open on the seventh month of the lunar calendar. During this month, we chineses called it as Ghost Month, the spirit of the dead are said to return to roam the Earth.

In case you don't know what is 'Ghost Month'..
Ghost Month is a traditional chinese festival which celebrated by chineses, because we chineses believe that the Ministry of Hell will release the ghost on the entire seventh lunar month.

Furthermore, the 14th day of seventh month in the lunar calendar is called Ghost Day which chineses believe the ghosts are more powerful on this day....hahaaaa.... So in order to prevent them from pursuing any unpleasant business during THEIR brief stay, the living (we people) offer various of appeasements such like paper money is burnt to keep THEM happy while opera performances are staged for THEIR entertainment...and many many more things to be done during the whole month.



hahaaa.....actually, I'm not so well-know about this festival...
every year during this festival, I will just help my mom to burn incense, joss paper and so on to the 'Brothers' and hopefully everything will still go smooth.....
My grandma also always remind my siblings and me to be careful while this month is around, and try to avoid any outing at night, because if you were unlucky, you might get injured or any other unlucky matter will happen to you, and usually all these matters are caused by THEM... (yer~all my bulu stand up already...)

Believe it or not, an evidence can be shown by the following guy:Let's introduce first, he is Guo Liang (hehe...you've shown up).

He got into an accident last week since he didn't follow the rules of Ghost Month.

Thus, his leg is broken now....I think it is considered lucky for him la, at least the ghost didn't claim his life. >_<

So he is going to carry his cemented leg for 1 month... pity him...

Wish that he will recover soon...

For the rest of you, take care ya!!
