02.09.2012 | 膽小馬騮

[Volume 7 Issue 9, #1525]
時值農曆七月十七, fing-fing聽到週圍話呢個月鬼門關大開, 搞到佢呢隻膽小馬騮都怕怕添.. 怕到喺自己屋企睇恐怖片都要拎張被蓋住, 而且最怕就係屋企附近有喪禮, 見到都要兜路走, 夜晚仲要唔敢瞓覺添, 呵呵!! 不過fing-fing爸爸話, 大個仔就唔怕喇, 其實大家喺同一個世界裡面不同空間共生共存, 相信只要大家能夠互相尊敬, 你不犯我我不犯你, 應該都可以相安無事嘅.. 其實七月盂蘭節, 本來就係普渡同超渡亡魂, 係好多人繪聲繪色先模糊咗佢真正嘅意義啫.. 阿彌陀佛 :)
it's the 7th month of the chinese calendar, when fing-fing heard everyone saying this is the hungry ghost month, he becomes a scared chimpanzee.. he is so scared he need to cover himself with blanket when watching horror film at home, and especially afraid of funerals nearby until he finds other path to bypass and do not dare to sleep at night.. but fing-fing's daddy says, grown up and no more fear, we are all actually existing in the same place but just within different dimensions, if we can respect each other and do not cross the line, it always can be a harmony co-existence.. actually the 7th month of lunar calendar is to pay tribute to the spirits, perhaps it's those many who had exaggerated some strange incidents that have blurred the actual purpose.. namo amitabha :)

      Good afternoon, SK, everyone! You too, Fing-fing. Yeah, the 7th month can be a scary month. But then again, any month can be scary with your Papa's scary band of bloggers haunting his blog. Oops! (I mustn't say that because they'll haunt even more..)

      Meow, guys can't get any advantages by bringing girls to watch horror movies. The most is, the girls will scream their heads off and hold the guys' arms tightly and leave bruises on it :p

      And nowadays most girls are very daring, dare to sit through the horror movie, let out some panic mode in between only.

      Very suspicious post. I am wondering whether it is the daddy that is scared or it is fing fing scared.

      fi.g fing watching scary movie or is it the daddy who watch.wanna watch and wanna scared.. I think fing fung would b watching banana in pajama rather than watching scary movie la. hence must be the daddy who does that

      hehehehe, it's up to you to guess whether it's the daddy or the daddy when young lah.. actually can guess quite obviously what.. but then one thing, i think it's very common with everyone that the more they scared the more they want to watch!! hahaha~~

    6. yvonne3/9/12 11:47 AM

      I reckon fing fing's daddy is the one who scared him badly. Being a parent, we tend to warn our children (unknowingly scare them) sometimes, like, "If you misbehaved, the closet monster will look for you tonight".

      I'm guilty of doing that, but I don't mention "monster", I merely say "the bad fella".... and they are still afraid, especially darkness.

    7. Small Kucing3/9/12 11:57 AM

      LOL.....what for Fing Fing watch the ori one? Of course la the cartoon one. If ori one sure Fing Fing wont watch already. sure sudah masuk mulut :p

      Yvonne, ya lor it's the parents fault. Usually the parents scare the children

      But then now also got TV fault la. a lot of nonsens e in ttv.

      Like my son. He was not scared of ghost and monster punya but a few months ago when lights out, he dare not go out of the room. Asked him why? he said got monster/ghost outside. We tarak teach him about ghost and moster. Guessing it's from the tv. those caryoons. say got monster in the closet and stuffs like that

    8. [SK]4/9/12 9:45 AM

    In my house, my kids don't really feel scared, as we filtered most of the ghost and horror stories from them.

    Mak Yan is the on who scared most, as I know this month has the highest death rate, and accident rate.

      So, I am kinda of phobia to drive alone at night. I will feel a bit uneasy too if my husband is on night duty during this month.

      I just wish this 7th month can pass soon. I like 8th month more. Moon cakes and lanterns are more harmony festive to celebrate.

      Anyway, don't bad things and say bad words, we will be blessed with better things. I try to comfort myself this way.

      I did praying at the road side and went to temple to pray respect for my late parents.

      hehehehe, that means Mak Yan is the one who is scared lah.. that's why she said she "filtered" all the horror movies from her princesses so that they won't be scared.. yalah, very true lah, i think sometimes we just think too much.. most importantly is behave ourselves and try to be moderate, and then respect each other.. that should be fine i guess.. :)

    2 more weeks to go to 8th lunar month. I just treat the 7th month as another month, don't think too much of it and don't curse, in case we might "tak chui" some restless spirits.

    Everything is over, now it is the time for fing-fing to have more fun. Playing candles, lanterns and eating mooncakes. But then year end exam is coming here. Don't just play play, must study also. This is what I told my girls every time. I am a very kiasu, tigress mom la! Sk, i think you are a better papa to fing-fing.
