Happy Chinese New Year!
Today is the Chinese new year. The year of the RAT. And I was born in the year of the rat, so it is a very special year to me indeed. However, i have been unable to keep up with the traditions of the Chinese new year... as i already had to wash my hair today. I will explain.
To my understanding, there are many traditions in the Chinese culture that have to do with luck. Good and bad. I have no idea whether this particular bit of information is true, but i heard that the year of the rat is bad luck. So this morning on the radio i heard that in order to keep the good luck in your house one of the things you need to do is NOT wash your hair on new year's day. OOPS. my brother and i discussed the possibilty of not washing our hair this morning and both came to the same conclusion... we were in need of an oil change... or that it might potentially cause a bio hazard if i did not wash it. All not good options. So i washed my hair...
i suppose i just washed all my good luck away...
Anyways, Happy Chinese New Year...
