Are any of you guys movie fanatics? I’m sure most of you watch movies once in a while since almost all households have a dvd player now. Of course renting DVDs or pirating them (like me) saves you a huge fraction of the price of watching the movie in the theaters, but some of you may still like the joy of purchasing some popcorn and soda and sitting in the theater either by yourself or with company. These recently years have just been crazy though. Why do I say that? The prices of movie tickets here in the Los Angeles county went from around $6.50 MATINEE to $8.50 and $9 EVENING up to $12 just for one damn flick. People that purchase tickets to watch a movie usually purchase some popcorn and soda, which adds up to quite a huge amount of change. The result of all this? You probably just watched a crappy movie and spent anywhere from $15-30 for something you wish you received a refund from.

I’m sure you guys are wondering what the heck my title means, am I correct? Well, if you understood my title, you can basically disregard the introduction paragraph of my post, but if you want to know more, please make sure you read this. The phrase “Gong Xi Fa Cai” is Chinese (technically Mandarin pronounced) and it is translated into “Happy Chinese New Year”. I’m not going to be racist or anything like that here, but I must say that Asians are almost everywhere now and even the population rate is high for Asians. In Beijing, China, there is a law that is supposedly going to prevent families from having more than ONE child, but I personally do not think that this law will do much. Hey, I’m Chinese, so I have the right to talk about my own race here (I hope) and I’m going to dedicate this post to the Chinese tradition, Chinese New Year. Although I do understand that I’m late 2 days, I still want you guys to get to know this tradition (even Google/Yahoo’s homepage were following).

About 1-2 weeks ago, I posted a 3 part series called, “See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil” and it seemed like quite a hit to my visitors and subscribers. I even received a small spike in traffic from many social bookmarking sites, which included StumbleUpon and Digg. It may seem like I didn’t get much controversy around the post due to my comment count, but never let that fool you Anyways, instead of having it as a 3 part series, I’ve decided to have this post wrap it all up. I’m sure some of my readers can’t wait any longer since I took so long on this post, but it’s all below.

Many of you just like my wife and I have a holiday today, Monday, January 21 and do not have to go to class or work. Of course for some of you unlucky ones, this holiday doesn’t matter to the business you work at, but what is this Martin Luther King holiday anyways? This event has been discussed in schools and certain churches for many years and will continue for as long as human beings are still alive. What most of us remember about this day is that Martin Luther King Jr. was shot and that is why we have this holiday. To tell you the truth, this isn’t the actual summary of this Martin Luther King Jr.. Therefore, I’m going to take this post to have some type of remembrance of this great African-American man and how he made an impact for all human beings no matter what the race is.
