On October 7th, there was a moonfestival which we Chinese celebrate each year. The actual moonday is on 6th October, but since that was on a Friday, many Chinese wouldn't be able to go to this place, called "White Lotus" , to celebrate it.
On that faithful night, there had been a lot of bad luck! That day sucked like something! Reasons:
1. The whole country didn't have electricity, which let the world out cold! >_< I hate it when that happens. Mom told me that just a few minutes after we've left the house, there was no electricity. Everyone who went to watch the festival, had been disappointed because of the belated shows. But eventually, they had continued the shows no matter what. I think they're gonna disappoint a lot of people if they tell them to go back home.
2. A friend of mine had been robbed off of her carlights. The ones on each side of her car. She'd cried and I felt hopeless. I didn't know what to say nor do to calm her down. No one knew who did it and no one could do anything to help her. I feel so bad for her. My night was almost ruined because of some stupid person who stole her things. I can't believe that they'd steal something from her. There was another car there which hadn't been locked and such thing, and nothing happened to that car! Ugh! I hate such people who steal things from others and people who are really bad! But what can I do about it. The organisator had called the police, but they'd arrived long before she'd left the place there. She was totally hopeless and couldn't do anything. And there's one other thing too, my cousins were there and one of them was busy talking with me. He'd joked about taking the lamps, which the Chinese use when there's no electricity.( I don't know how to explain.) He told me to go get it, but I joked and told him to take one for me instead, but then I heard that thing about my friend. I don't want to go into details anymore, because I don't want to think about it anymore. It's bad enough already that I'd heard it with my own ears. I feel so bad towards my cousin. I'd apologized and told him what had happened. Luckily, he listened to me and understood. Oh, I love my cousins very much.
3. When the show ended, we got stuck with the car. My sis couldn't start the engine. Dad had almost left the place, but he had to come back again. I'd called him, because it was getting creepy already there. On the way out, dad was the one who drove. The exit was too high and it resulted that the front of the car bumped hard on that some angle thingy. The car's scratched there, I bet.
4. When we were finally out of the place there, my sis had somehow 'knocked' the car on a high cement thing and the front tire got two big holes. It freaked me out. I thought we could just drive away, but just hearing some weird noise made me worried, so I told my sis to park the car on the side. I called dad immediately, but he didn't pick up. He knew there had to be something, because he felt his cellphone vibrate and saw the car
*sigh* I can't believe this all happened on one day. There's even more. A friend of mine had hurt himself, because he couldn't see anything and stepped on something and fell down, he scratched both his hands and I felt pain for him Dunno why. He also told me that he only had bad luck y that night, because he'd called someone and that person didn't call him back and he was looking for that person.
And there's Peter, a friend of my 2nd eldest cousin, David. He told me this and that. About what happened and it wasn't fun and such. I forgot what, but I still remember he said that he called someone but the person never answered him.
My cousin told us that he'd accidently spilled his drink on his clothes, because it was dark and there were a lot of people walking up and down.
*sigh* That night is a night to never forget.
But there were happy things too.
My friend and performed her 3 dances with some other dancers. My cousins joked around with me and talked about this and that. Peter had talked to me a bit. I remember that I'd hit him on the shoulder somewhere, because he'd said something which angered me. But when I saw him in pain, I apologized immediately. I massaged the place where I'd hit him out of guilt. He joked that he could fall down sleeping and mentioned that Jimmy, my cousin should wake him up when the shows ended, and Jimmy answered that he'd just let him sleep there and forget him. *laugh* They are so funny, but after a while, he left to go find some girls.*LOL*
My other cousin had given me some meatballs and I like them. But there was this baka who had stolen something out of the plastic bag. >_<
Well other than that, there wasn't anything fun. The performances were ok. At the end of the night there was a karaoke contest and a man had won the competition. I think he'd make a good singer, because I like his voice. I like the way how he sang and how he'd control over his voice. The 2005 champion had sung a pretty funky song. But there was one thing, his dancing was funny! But I like his singing too.
bad,
