Not Chinese New Year card, but invitation to Yuan Xiao Jie Celebration!Company had 5 exclusive passes to give away on Friday for the Yuan Xiao Jie 2008 Celebrations.
Date of Event: 17 Feb 2008, 7pm
Venue: New Bridge Road (in front of Lucky Chinatown)
Visitors can enjoy the highlights from the Chingay Street Parade as the floats and performers make an appearance at Chinatown. There will also be a strong programme line-up with overseas and local performances such as casts from 881 and firecrackers & fireworks display.
*Firecrackers & Fireworks*... I was very excited and signed up for my colleagues who were not interested in going to increase my chance of winning the tickets.
Because it was broadcasted that "Tickets will be balloted and winners will be notified to collect the tickets at 3pm.", disappointed that I wasn't one of the lucky winners, I left the office at 4:20pm for a site inspection...
Then, I saw the pair of tickets on the table this morning!!! What???
Turn out that Mr Ray-man was the lucky one but he couldn't reach me on my mobile phone... and then, put the tickets on my table!
Urghhhh!!!! I rather not know... ignorance is bliss...
What is Yuan Xiao Jie(元宵节)?
Yuan Xiao Jie (元宵节) is the 15th day and the last day of the Lunar New Year. It is also regarded as the Chinese Valentine's Day, for it used to be the only day in the year that singles in the olden times are able to see each other, through the pretext of lantern appreciation.
