How was your mid-autumn celebration?
Got a box of mooncakes courtesy of one of my ex-students' parent. Was pleasantly surpised as I totally did not expect it. Thanks!

Whisky waiting patiently for his share~
Heard a lots kids downstairs of moi block playing with wheezing sparklers and carry lanterns of all shapes and sizes.
Made me think of the time when I was in pri school tottering with my mum and younger bro at AMK Park or around my neighbourhood with my assortment of lanterns.
It was always such a joy to shop for lanterns. So many to choose from!
From the traditional paper ones to the battery operated lanterns in the shapes of well-loved cartoon characters, cute animals, vehicles and more!
I will always remember my fave lantern carried when I was in p3 or 4. It was a battery operated one in the shape of a peacock. Lovely big lantern!
My bro favoured those in the shape of buses, aeroplanes and the like.
Now at the grand old age of 24, lantern carrying is a thing of the past le. Probably not too bad if it was those paper one but carrying a battery operated one in the shape of a disney princess looks a tad hilarious.
Anyway, I for the first time in my 24 years, played with a sparkler last wk. Yah, I know what the hell was happening to my childhood :p
It was pretty fun and I was a lil afraid those sparks might burn me but of course it did not. Nice but I would give those wheezing ones a miss though, the sound freaks mi out. Reminds me of a whistling kettle on the verge of boiling pt.
*shudder*
Hope you guys had great fun last nite! :)
