Tag: New Year’s Tradition

Juliana's Lair tagged me with this New Year's meme about my New Year's good luck traditions. Okay, here goes:

Rule:
Copy the person and persons' names that sent it to you and add your own at the bottom of the list. It really helps to build community.

Let's start it here!

*My mom used to collect some coins and when the new year comes she put the coins in a bowl and shake it to create sounds. She said its good luck for money throughout the year. And also wearing dotted dresses on new year don't know why.

*My old folks always told us to avoid spending money on new years day. They said, once you spend on the first day of the year, you like to spend the rest of the year.

*I grew up believing that if you have some money on your pocket (whatever you're wearing) come New Year's eve it will ensure steady flow of income throughout the year. The other belief is that the main door of the house should be wide open come New Year's eve so that good luck will be ushered in. Juliana of

*I don't know if what I am about to write is a new year's tradition or not. In my place, most people will 'jump' into the sea or take a shower as soon as the clock strikes to 12 in New Year's Eve to get rid of all the bad lucks in the previous year. ;D ~

Amel's Realm: Yeah. More than 10 years ago, loads of people would follow this tradition, so, they'll set up a camp nearby the beach.

However, for the past few years some people would rather celebrate at home or some place else and in my case, I'd just sprinkle some water onto my face he he he... ;D
