February 28th 2010
Today is Chap Goh Meh which marks the fifteen day of lunar calendar and also the last day of Chinese New Year. Not only that, it is also the last day of February for the roman calendar. During my school days,a party was held to gather bachelors and spinsters together. Having the intention that they might end up being husband and wife.
It was also a belief that on the night of Chap Goh Meh, bachelor who throws apple into the lake will get to wed good wife and spinster who throws orange will eventually weds a good husband,LOL. I never believe in such a thing. Only an old tradision or maybe not.
