It's Mid-Autum festival again. Can't believe we get break fot that as well. It looks like the people in HK is more into the traditional Chinese Culture than the mainland Chinese! But then again, I gues people start to apreeciated once they no longer have something, just like in the U.S. everyone's so into wearing ChiPao and the oriental designed clothes whereas in mainland, no body would go buy that kind of stuff unless it's for some special occasion.

 

Talk about Mid-Autum festival, there's so many different versions of myths about this festival, but I think one thing is for sure -- it's a time when we are suppose to unite with our loved ones. I've been in HK, living on my own for a month now, and just spent the first Mid-Autum festival away from home. Though whenever I want to ttalk to mom or dad, I simply have to punch some numbers, it's still quite different not having them there right in front of me, physically.

People have asked me whether I miss home or not. I guess it's not as bad as when we moved to the States couple years ago, but geting used to live on my own and replying solely on myself to manage my life still requires quite some adjustment. Then again, if I can survive this, I think that I'll have aquired another vital skill to succeed in the future. As they say: what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

 

So, I guess I'll stop right here for now. Until next time!

 

Hope everyone had a lovely Mis-Autum festival! Stay spirited!
