hahahaha
so apparently it was my "lunar birthday" (mistakenly known as "chinese birthday) yesterday.
first off. it's not called "chinese birthday" cus. im not Chinese. i guess you could say "chinese birthday" if you really are chinese. but the politically correct term is "LUNAR" so get it RIGHT.
it's like saying "ORIENTAL" instead of "ASIAN"
i recently learned that "ORIENTAL" is degrading to asians so don't say it. use "Eastern-Asian" or something if you wanna talk about koreans, chinese, and japanese,
i have no idea how to follow this stuff(the lunar calender). my relatives in korea just somehow know it's my birthday on a certain day and no, it's not the same day every year. it changes as the moon changes. which confusees the shit out of me so i just stick to my REAL DATE OF BIRTH. 12/13/91
idk why asians have to make it so freakin complicating.. honestly. and did you know that if you go by your "lunar birthday" you gain a year or two on your age?!
trippy right?
idk how that shit works
i asked my parents
they explained it
literally went in one ear
and out the other.
lolll
gooogle it if you're really interested.
