Project Fresh Air

This was a project similar to life transformer... except there are no wide media coverage.  The committee comprise of two managers and 2 members.  I am one of the members.  As the owner of the house wanted to keep this project utmost secret, i cannot blog too much of the details here....

I just want to document that we manage to complete an almost impossible task, thanks to the two resourceful managers who really put in a lot of effort for this project.

Project Fresh Air part 2... coming up soon.... Jia You!!!

This year's tomb sweeping activities, i get to visit my grandparents tomb.  It is the first time i went since they passed away and the experience was novel.  

We woke up at 4 am to get ready and reach the cemetery at around 5 plus.  It was still dark when we arrived.  We begin to search for my grandfather's tomb.  It was quite challenging to do so in the dark... luckily my cousin's hubby bought torchlight.  When we finally found the tomb, we began to clear away the grass that has grown on top of the tomb.  We begin to wipe the area clean, this is really "tomb sweeping".

Then we lay out all the offerings we bought.  We pray to the "Di gong" first, who is god in charge of "tu di", earth.  Then we pray to grandfather for blessings to his descendants. After that, we began to burn the incense papers we bought, believed to reach our grandfather in the nether world via burning.  We burn paper clothes, bags, goldbar, money etc.... at the end of it, we throw a little white piece of paper and shout "HUAT AH" for good luck.

We the proceed to grandmother's tomb. By then it was quite bright, the time is around 7am.  We repeated the above SOP again.  

I am hoping we all strike 4D today.  :)
