Happy MidAutumn Festival!!

2 all u chinese ppls, and 2 all those not so chinese ppls :P , 2day is October 6 and that is zhong qiu jie...or sumthing like that. in english, Mid Autumn Festival. 2nite, there is a full moon, and this yr, the moon is 12% bigger than it evr was, which makes it especially special. on this day, china overthrew the mongols by writing the note: 2nite we will kill the mongols, on their hands, and passed on the message by handing each other moon cakes. now, it is celebrated by watching the moon and eating moon cakes, which are not only really unhealthy, but they taste really good. so, if ur sky isnt all cloudy like mine, look outside and see the moon.
ok. that wuz a random bit of info that probly none of u will use, but still, i think its awesome.
