    ^yup mooncakes are expensive like 5 dollars each for the normal one here, it doesn't even look like 5 bucks, yea those piggies don't have the eggs and they are probably cheaper than mooncakes. that's a good thing buying mooncakes for your mom angie. oh yea it's like 1 day till mid autumn festival now so fast.

    ^lol you can probably say, "lend a helping hand" haha, but don't you see the traditional moonlight festival in movies and all, lovers go watch the moon, kids go play with lanterns and all that, scholars get all poetic and shit, but traditional values gone down the drain along time ago and i don't live in china, so ya nothing to celebrate lol.

    i think back then watching the moon was the shizz right lmao that was like lover's main source of entertainment or something, say something poetic and all, you watched tvb version of journey to the west right, what the pig character does all the time... but now that's boring. really boring haha.

    Moon Cakes are too oily and fattening. Can't stand eating lard and it's too sweet
