Me still being a Magikarp and wandering around Hong Kong, January - May 2018
一筒菲林16格,但都影了半年。
鯉魚王有天都會成為鯉魚龍。
A roll of film for 16 frames of photos took me half a year to finish.
Magikarp will become Gyarados someday.
昨天是農曆五月初五端午節(英文譯名是「龍舟節」),是紀念一位二千幾年前自殺死掉的男人的節日。龍舟原來是人們划出去尋找男人屍首的船,糉就是人們掉進河裏好讓河中的魚不會吃屍首的食物。到現在,端午節成為了舉行划龍舟這項體育活動的大日子,大家亦會在這天吃糉來慶祝。
Yesterday was 5th of May in lunar calendar. It was also the Dragon Boat Festival (more proper to translate it as Duanwu Festival) to commemorate a man who committed suicide two thousand years ago. The dragon boat was the boat people sailed to the river looking for the body of the man. The rice dumplings was the food people dumped into the river so the fish would not eat the body of the man. Nowadays, it is a big day to organize the dragon boat race and people eat rice dumpling to celebrate the festival.
