    today is the Lantern Festival ,happy Festival

    i still work at company now, have no any plans for this night . in my hometown and many other placesof china. we have lots of traditions ways for celebrate this festival. like eat glue ball 元宵 glue pudding,guess riddles written on lanterns .play paper dragon and lion. one other thing we must to do is go to visit forerunners' graves.

    on this day we need keep everywhere light at house,cant turn off the lights.keep candles at each door.eat a big dinner with family together

    it is really good and fun memories in my mind. but after i left home then work so busy in big city for years i have no ways and energy in this kind Festival.so pity.

    well,a litter bad luck i have today  i lost my key. i live with my boss' brother-in-law together. we have 2 keys in all. he keep 1 and i keep other 1. the day before yesterday he lost his key so we have only 1. yesterday night he go home first so he keep the key. i back home he opened the door for me so i dont check the key.

    this morning,he left first,but when i left i cant find the key. i dont know if he left it there or not. but i found these places we often keep then have nothing. so i closed the door go to office. but when i asked him for key. he said he keep it in somewhere but i found nothing. so we need think some ways to open the door and find the key. because we have some important keys with it together.

    i made a call to a keymaster  who good at open door ,he answered me that he will come to help me this afternoon 5 pm. hope it is work for me. if not maybe i need to broke the door

    hehe. cool day

    happy Happy  the Lantern Festival again

    that sounds like a great tradition.  I'm glad you and your mate got to go celebrate a little.

    I understand about the key! Mine is usually my car key. I keep more than one extra key.  I even gave a key to my dad.  hehe.

    Happy Latern Day, Jie!

    It sounds like a lovely tradition.
    I'd like to have this kind of tradition here. So pity we don't have it. :(

    Hope you worked out the key problem..
    I always keep 2 extra keys with me just in case.

    Egads....what a bummer about the lost keys!  I always have extra keys made....it's easy to stick an extra one in your wallet just in case.

    Good luck and Happy Lantern Day!

    Haha, I had to research that one Jetliang.  Those are RICE glue balls you eat on the Lantern Festival day.  You have to explain EVERYTHING to foreigners like me!  That sounds like such a nice festival.  It's a shame that the city folks are not observing these ancient traditions.  Traditions are the "glue" that keeps societies together.  

    Hope you worked out the key problem.  It's really easy here to get keys made.  Maybe at this point you should keep a spare at work.
