seven early eight early?

there is this expression that chinese love to use, which is zi zao ba zao. i wonder why does it begin with seven not six or five. probably got to do with the ancient chinese history. waking up today is quite refreshing because i  am not disturbed by any metal drilling noise.

the first thing that comes to my mind is i have a good dream. the thing is i seldom dream and if i do, i normally don't remember it well. but this time around, it is a good one. in it, i dreamt of my late grandmother. she was telling me to eat "loh mai kai" which i find it weird at first. then she was telling me it is very late already and she can't cycle home. then i told not to worry because i can drive her back tomorrow morning and just stay at my house. weird but pleasant. i think i saw her smiling. i heard of stories of people dreaming about their beloved ones who have passed away. sometimes, if they want to let you know that they are doing well in their after lives, they will tell you in the form of dream. no matter how true it is, since it is good, i will just take it.

blogger feeling good.
