I found a dance studio that provided very affordable lessons at the center of the city. It definitely won't happen in the capital city. There are just too many learners in the evening. Fortunately, I don't work, so I can go there during the daytime. Despite appreciating the classical style in traditional Chinese dance, I really can't do any forms of ultimate art. Even though it's a very easy-to-follow class, I can't follow all the steps. When I can't follow some steps, I can't help but worry about them. The nervousness makes me unable to concentrate on the following movements, let alone body emotions. Fear of dancing started at primary school. I was too nervous when I attended a dance lesson for the first time, so I couldn't control my hands. The teacher punished me. And the second time was when I was at university; we enrolled in street dance. The pace was fast, and I failed my PE.

This is a special Chinese festival that we seldom introduce it to foreign feinends. It's the Ghost Day. Though its name sounds very scary, it's just a festival that we are in memory of our ancestors. So, it's nothing about ghosts on that day.It is also very different from the Hallows' Day which is celebrated for fun. On the Ghost Day, the relatives who have the same ancestors gather together and visit the graveyard where their ancestors buried. In Chinese culture, after people passed away, their offsprings think that something special and important are passed down from their accestors. These things teach them to work hard to have a better life or to be a kind person. It's just like a root of a family. All the offsprings follow the rule to do a living. In order to let all the relatives remember their ancestors' edification, all of them show their respect for their ancestors and share each other's interesting things about their life on that day. If it's possible, a picnic is necessary. So, the Ghost Day is not only for the past, but also for the wonderful future. The Ghost Day of this year is on the Lunar July 15th every year.
