Blow Up Your Future-Unknown-at-the-Moment Enemies Day!

Today is the 5th day of the Chinese New Year and on this day some very interesting traditions happen! My friend, Joel, knows more about it than I do and he wrote a great blog talking about this festival. Check out this link, http://chinahopelive.net/2010/02/17/its-day-5-of-spring-festival-time-to-chop-pinch-stomp-and-explode-your-eneimes. I really recommend you reading this one! As we speak, I am listening to fireworks going off all over the place (along with the accompanying car alarms) - it's so loud! I guess everyone wants to blow their future enemies to pieces before they get the chance to do something bad! Wow...just when I think I know all the cool stuff about this culture...
