The Implication of Red Egg to A Chinese Family

Red is a energetic and a very blithe color. More than that it is significant to all Chinese people, whether customary or present people. Colors are not plain to any Chinese because each hue has its own significant meaning. As a matter of fact, this out of the ordinary color signification has reached even the agile international community. Aside from the color of red, Chinese are also particular with assorted shapes, uncomplicated objects, and symbolic food.

Specifically speaking, red eggs are important to all attractive expecting Chinese mothers. The traditional Chinese family celebrates the so-called Red Egg and Ginger Party for the upcoming recent member of the family. This customary celebration is the same as the American baby shower that we celebrate on the third trimester of the dear woman. In China, the apprehensive family waits for thirty days before the shivering delivery of the newborn to celebrate the Red Egg and Ginger Party.

The Chinese celebrate this out of the ordinary custom to prevent death and sickness of the ignorant newborn. The color of red indicates good luck and happiness for the immature life. During the happy party, the host family gives red eggs to their frenzied guests and serves them a delectable ginger chicken soup. The egg connotes a change of life from a tiny fetus to a loving newborn.

The Extraordinary Oriental Garden Of A China Home

Plants, water, and rocks -- these are the three necessary architectural elements in a exquisite Chinese garden. For the archaic Chinese homes, a serene garden is a place for relaxation and for the family's private enjoyment. Garden, for Chinese people, is a distinguished art just like the celebrated Ikebana of Japan. Having a garden is the best way to add a lift of exquisiteness and style to any Chinese home. Fascinated Chinese people treat their garden as one exquisite masterpiece.

What makes a uncomplicated garden design into an magnificent piece of art? For the customary Chinese people, homes that have a pleasant garden surely house an elite family---family who is in the royalty or in the higher class of the society. This is the fundamental reason Chinese people put a immense effort in their garden design. A masterpiece garden design, for the Chinese, emanates naturalness and unique beauty. It is assorted from the typical garden of Europe or even of America that has a green scenery and various buildings. A Chinese garden needs a small lift of design inspired by nature, and it must have the three elements to fulfill the standard of art. The most substantial thing for the Chinese gardens is its refreshing scenery and its gentle aura.

The Resort Of Softhearted Chinese Women Is Divorce

Women's standard in the ample history of the world remains secondary to those stiff and macho men. This is a fact -- written in decrepit books, read in magazines, seen in dramatic soap operas, encrypted in the bewitching images of billboards -- that no one could ever deny. All women feel this way wherever they go, whether in a bustling office where most executives are respectful men or in a car where most drivers are inconsiderate men. This prosaic issue has never escaped the energetic culture of China.

Many Chinese women are calling for divorce because of assorted reasons: sex, romance, affection, and horrible husbands. It is discordant in a Chinese culture that women initiate sex; that's why Chinese women, like Mrs. Lan Ding, suffered for 10 years, waiting for her husband to kiss her even on her smooth cheeks. Her husband, who is a giant officer of China Air Force, never did that to his despondent housewife. Customary Chinese women had sex for child-bearing purposes, but today Chinese women are divergent and much stronger. They want to get married and have a ecstatic family life both for pleasure and for good health.

Another reason of a melancholic divorce in existent China is philandering husbands. Any woman, Chinese or not, would always want the greatest father to her children, a responsible son to her parents, and a engaging man in bed. True or not, agree or disagree, I realize that Chinese women recently just have to kick their husband's ass out of their life to be able to pick up the pieces of herself and make it bewitchingly whole again.

Not Just an Conventional Gal

Zhang ZiYi is such a stunning and unbelievable gal. I really marvel at her because she's not only stunning; she knows how to protect herself by using her knowledge in martial arts.

Since I first saw Zhang Ziyi in the motion picture entitled Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, I was charmed with this famous Chinese actress. Man, she's a world apart compared to other Hollywood actresses that's why I unquestionably love her. I find her cute and at the same time first-rate in terms of her ability to present her skills. OIn her latest motion picture, Memoirs of Geisha, she looks so different compared to her other films; still, I like her performance. However, I would still prefer to see her in martial arts motion pictures like Hero. With few actresses willing to take action motion pictures, I am looking forward for more motion pictures from her.

Even if it's terrifying to have a date with her, I would not have a second thought given the prospect. I would be more than willing to know her persona and feasibly ask her some tips on martial arts. Given her capability, I am unquestionably sure that Zhang ZiYi can be a good martial arts teacher for me. I bet many would feel resentful if this fantasy would become reality.
