See. Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, Duan Wu Jie. My Mommy got herself some ingredients and leaves to made my family some chinese dumplings. So since tomorrow is a traditional chinese festival, we ought to remind ourself of the origin of the festival.
Qu Yuan, a chinese poet drown himself in a river. Being noble as he was, the people started throwing packets of rice to feed the fish so as to prevent the fish from eating Qu Yuan's body.
I'm guessing that there were piranha and large amount of rice were waste throwing into the river. I bet no one will carry on with this tradition tomorrow since we're already facing rice shortage.
