My Four Weekend

My weekend kicked off with a movie at my friend's house. There was about seven people and we had a crazy time. That was the only thing I did that day. I also had a lot of homework to do. Chinese New Year was on Sunday. My family and I went out for tea. My dad said we have to drink tea and eat dim sum on the first day of Chinese New Year. I also get lots of Red Envelopes.

Chinese New Years also comes with lots of cleaning. So I had to clean every spot in the house. Chinese New Years is practically the equivalent of Spring Cleaning. So cleaning every inch of the house was really tiring. Chinese New Year also has lots of other traditions such as giving praise to religion and all the Gods. I don't know why I do it but my parent said it's for luck.

Praying is something I really don't really get. We have to pray at certain days of certain times and use specify things to pray with. In the of praying we also have to burn stuff for the dead. I really don't see why we have to but I was just told to do these things since I was little and so were my parents. My parents also believe in Fong-Sway. Which is Wind-Water. It is basically super sedition. All of that includes things like not washing you hair on Chinese New Years because it will wash away your luck. And sweeping the floor because of sweeping away your luck. There are more than hundreds of things and I have basically follow all those "rules".
