i quote from it one paragraph which is funny.
"The fear of the number 13 has a strong grip on Western society. Many cities in the States don’t have a 13th Street or Avenue. Many buildings don't even have a 13th floor. And you’ll need as many four-leaved clovers as you can carry if you have 13 letters in your name, for legend has it you’ll have the devil's luck. Jack the Ripper has 13 letters in his name, see? (Though one suspects it might have been more than a bad luck day that sent him on a rampaging psychopathic killing mission. And there's the small matter that he was named after the er, events.) "
see the bold sentence. omg. i counted my name and there it goes. 13 letters!!! guess i need to find some 4-leaved clover eh. oh before i forget. it is mostly believed by western society. I am a Chinese and Chinese believe 8 is a lucky number. guess if i combined this 2 together i am just neutral. cos i got numerous 8 in my life- bday, ic number, address, etc. in fact too many to name all, so i am indeed living a neutral life.
alright i stop for now as i need to do some work before i do get unlucky on this day!
