Silly superstition stuff. 4 sounds like the word death in Chinese. 8 is similar to the character for prosperity. 9 is similar to longevity. That's just about it. Even numbers are usually preferred over odd, too. 9 and 4 are exceptions. I don't know much about the other numbers though.

Yep! CNY is ridiculously busy for my fam.. on certain days we have to stay up till 3 just to pray, on certain days we have to visit the temple, on certain days we have to specifically cook a number of dishes @_@ Today was the last day, actually....

Good luck anyhow, friend!! Hope you don't get into any mishaps.

Aw, a music teacher sounds adorable! I was never into music and I still can't read notes, heh. What kind of stuff do you learn?

Tomorrow is a leap year! We get to live an "extra" day! How will you spend it?

I heard there are supposed to be some great travel deals on the 29th,

Interesting fact about me, I was born on 1992 which just so happened to be a leap year. lol

I wonder how the Chinese Calendar incorporates the leap year
