Hungry Ghost Month
It's the 7th month in the Chinese Calendar now... Since young whenever we reached this month, I always have the eery kind of feeling. Why? It's the Hungry Ghost Month. You could see almost every Chinese Communities will setup some kind of temporary stage to have some presentation at the same time gather all the food and paper made items to pray to the hungry ghost.
I still remember my first time visit to the place that they have this gathering to pray for the Hungry Ghost. They have Chinese Opera and there were two rows of chairs in the front without anyone sitting on it. So i was curious and asked my mom why don't we go in front and sit... it's better view there. My mom told me, it's not for people to sit... it's for ghost.
Since that day onwards, the moment i saw the row of chairs in front which are empty. I straightaway think of the Hungry Ghost seats... Hmm... Is the first row seats in the cinema also reserved for you know what i meant eh~
Okay, i think i better hit the bed now... the more i write the eery feeling that i have... Ciao
