Coming Saturday 18th.Feb'07 is Gong Xi Fa Cai-ushering in the Year of The Pig. The year before was the dog. It was all about the animals' attendance upon Gautama Buddha. First to arrive will be the first in the calendar, next to arrive wil be 2nd, and so on & so forth. Well...rat (my animal calendar, although I don't like the sighting of rats!) arrived first, followed by the bull, and lastly the pig. I know how rat became first, bull 2nd. and pig last, and why cat was not in the calendar. Go ask your Chinese friend (if only he/she knows...)

Maggie from Swiss Garden shrieked out " u also rat? me too lar! kakaka! 4 year of pig, male rat (that's me?) is d best esp come to health n career! but hold on 4 all d invest! there will be a male helping us!"
I aked myself "career" does it got anything to do with my future posting?" "invest?""what 2 invest?where to invest?" "male helping us?"" of course this is a male dominated world, my dear!I did not enquire Meg on those issues...
Office colleague Jamal was always annoyed at me saying "you were born in the year of the pig!"C'mmon;... pig are friendly and hard working" I'd said."just look when them pigs producing babies! "(erk, I have never ever like the sights of them pigs! :-))
Redza the 13year old said "Pig(referring to those born in 1995) are in Std.6 this year". Redza's Chinese calendar animal is the rooster, while sis Nina is rabbit.
Wear red and enjoy Gong Xi Fa Cai!
