More On The Hungry Ghost ...

Last few days I asked Uncle Tan to check my Chinese birthday as well as hehehe .... astrological luck. This is because my aunties said, as a Chinese (even 1/4 Chinese or 1/10 Chinese), we need to know our Chinese birthday. Not wanting to argue I just follow lor ...

Chinese calender is a lunar calender whereas our Julian Calender is a solar Calender, so my birthday in Julian Calender will fall on different date every year. This year, Chinese birthday falls on 2nd September whereas my official DOB falls on 7 September which happens to be the day all the hungry ghosts go back to Hell.

Uncle Tan came by this morning to tell me that my Chinese birthday is on 24th day of the 7th month and I have too much fire in my Patt Chee. I need water element to balance out my chart. Hmmm.... maybe I should put a small aquarium in the office. Talking about my "English" birthday, maybe I should offer a feast to my ancestors since it is the last day and to ensure they can go "home" in peace (and stop pinching me) hehehe ...

But the funniest part of today was after Uncle Tan told me my Chinese birthday suddenly my Auntie Daisy said in heavily accented Penang slang...

"So ini rumah ada 2 "hantu" lor ..." (literally it means 2 person born in the month of the Hungry Ghost). But sekali dengar ... quite funny laa.

But at least that explain why I am always hungry during this month hehehe

Awwww ... malu I ...

Bila lah agaknya bisa "dicubit" oleh "hantu" yang lebih manja. Hahaa

Jiwa u dikatakan lebih api, perlu disejukkan dengan air. Tip tu penting untuk diberi perhatian, J. Hantu manja tu mungkin takut dgn api, hehehe.

Norzah, mudah-mudahan akan dipertemukan dengan hantu yang jiwanya sesejuk air gunung yang jernih, meredakan api cinta yang terlalu membara (aduhhhhhh .... even nak taip ayat ni i rasa geli-geleman)

norzah said...

Kenapa geligeman ni? Patutnya menunggu hantu yang jiwanya sesejuk air gunung yang jenrnih tu mestilah penuh syahdu dan debran. Api cinta tu jangn biarkan membara sampai melecur diri sendiri, J. Dingin-dinginkanlah sikit dengan tiupan bayu pantai yang nyaman.

Bait-bait ayat tu yang buat geli-geliman Norzah bukan "the thought" and "the anticipation" of meeting the hantu hahaha .... the ayat is soooooo not me!

norzah said...

Hey, that's a revelation! You don't feel comfortable using sentimental and "feeling" words. It's so not you
because it sounds and feels alien. So, J. How can you share such feelings with the hantu berjiwa sesejuk air digunung when you can't appreciate such feelings? Sorry to push the point because I think it's very important in undestanding your own inner dynamics
of the most sensitive type. Undestanding it is the first step to appreciating it- ab imo pectore.

Norzah, I ni ibarat lagu Ronan Keating yang feymes itew ... "When you say nothing at all" as the lyric:

It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I can never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing

The smile on your face let's me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me wherever I fall
You say it best, when you say nothing at all

Best kan? Hehehe
