I celebrated Mid-Autumn Festival thrice this year. Once on the 15th day of the 8th Lunar month itself, then on the 16th and 17th day of the 8th Lunar month respectively. Though.. coming to think of it, I didn't exactly "celebrate" Lantern Festival on the day itself. Unless you call hanging out with Jen, Cindy and May walking around Midvalley and watching the cheerleading competition then lighting up lanterns by myself, celebrating.
Speaking of the cheerleading competition, Pharmacy A a.k.a Electra, were really really good! But well, due to some "political" reasons (or so I've heard), they only won the Elephant Cup which is the trophy awarded to the group with the most supporters.. In other words, it was to make-up for them not winning first, second or third in the competition. Wanted to upload the video I took of Electra's performance but the file's too big.. Plus, I'm too lazy to edit the video.. Lols!
On the 16th day of the 8th Lunar month, I celebrated Lantern festival with my Seremban brothers, Ernest and Tek Jee. Though there were only three of us, we still had a lot of fun.. Prolly due to the fact that all three of us were pyromaniacs that night! (All Tek Jee's fault! LOL!)
 Tek Jee tried burning the overgrown grass on his lawn but not only did they refuse to burn, they made a funny crackling kinda noise that sounded somewhat like firecrackers. Ernest then followed suit, enjoying the funny noises the grass gave out when he tried to burn them. Soon, we were burning lanterns and well... total pyromania!

 Aha! Caught in the act! That's Ernest following in Tek Jee's footsteps.. Pyromania just beginning
 Three's a party
 Hmm.. Suspicious...
 Ooh! So that was what he was doing.. (Hint: Jee's pointing at a candle on a tree)
 And as usual... camwhoring with a fellow camwhore..
And to end the "ceremony"... Burning of lanterns! Bye bye RM4.60!! *Cries*
 Step 1: Use lighter to burn lantern
 Step 2: Watch lantern burning
 Step 3: Take picture of rapidly burning lantern before it falls to the ground
The next day I celebrated Lantern Festival with Tek Jee and his church friends. No pictures taken though.. What a waste.. Sigh.. Played a couple of games and had fun! Too bad Ernest couldn't join us coz he was down with the flu.. All-in-all, I'm glad this year's Mid-Autumn festival was a memorable one :) Oh and before I forget... HAPPY BIRTHDAY FREDDIE WEE!! May you have a blessed year ahead of you! Labels: Events, Festivals |
