The national day celebration rehearsal is held on this cloudy Friday. Traffic on main roads is blocked. People whose offices are near the Changan avenue don't need to go to work today. Our office is closed at 3pm. I went to the 7-11 at 4pm, only to find the door locked. Last year when the opening ceremony of the Olympics was held, we also had one day off. Special “holidays” – it's one of the priorities of living in the capital.
As the 60th anniversary approaches, cinema schedules are full of historical/political mainland Chinese films. They should be categorized as film rouge. We’d seen a lot of them at elementary school as part of our education. Two decades is gone. Are they still preachy? Are they more attractive with a cast of big stars?
The national day and the mid-autumn festival overlap this year. Moon cakes, red banners, red lanterns… the holiday is coming.
Oh…one more thing. Sally, my elder sister, a couple of months older than me, is engaged in Italy. Since she left for the UK, I haven’t seen her for how-many-years-i-don’t-remember. We just choose differently and grow so different. Congrats~
