Two special occasions during this mid-autumn festival:
On Tuesday, party at my office building with all the international students and teachers. some of them did great performances, and after that had a look at the American pie with Matt, Thomas, Alina, Mita and Aryuna.
Yesterday, the real "moon-party", sky bit clouded, but the moon was just the way i love to see it, so round and powerfully bright. So the very special thing about this night was that me, Julie, Florian and Steven were invited to join the typical celebration of this evening together with a Chinese family. The tradition is to be outside, praising the moon, and eating (also moon cake) and drinking. We were at Dolphin´s house, with her parents and brother, and we had barbecue.
(Oh my God, do i have to mention the fact that we had to eat as if we were going to war, they prepared too much food, and i almost exploded)
Her father is a great singer, and he sang a traditional "love" song normally sang in this evening. It was really really something special and interesting. And at home, i could not avoid to further stare at the moon....
PS.I have tried different kinds of moon cake but, hum, always no luck, couldn't enjoy it.
