I wonder if Malaysian Chinese are using the wrong translation for Diwali or Deepavali for all these years? The direct translation for Deepavali in Chinese means “Festival of Demon Killing.”
The interpretation is not entirely wrong, as Diwali is the celebration of light following the killing of demons by the Hindu gods. However I felt that we should have a better official terms in Chinese that show the true meaning for “Festival of Lights.”
Festival of Demon Killing or Festival or Lights, whatever.. to all friends and readers that are celebrating the festival, Happy Deepavali.

Netherlands are out of FIFA World Cup 2006 after losing to Portugal 1-0.. no more Dutch flag in World Cup.. no more orange jerseys.. T.T
A bit of consolation though, I can watch a few less matches, proceeding with some better sleep perhaps.
I will be mourning for the Netherlands, I will blog in Orange until the World Cup ends.. ermm or until I’m bored with the orange color.

All my bags are packed,
I’m ready to go,
I’m standing here,
Outside your door,
I hate to wake you up and say Good Bye.
But the dawn is breaking, surley morn~,
The taxi is waitin, blowin his horn.
Already I’m so lonesome I could die.

Will be going back hometown tonight to avoid the traffic in the next few days. So the blog will be in hiatus for a while until my CNY holiday ends.
To all Chinese friends and readers, Happy Chinese New Year.

I pretty much rewrote the whole CSS, changing layouts and the blog organization. Glad to announce I am using my own designed template (with some reference from Beccary’s).
