Modern praying method

Today is the tang yuan festival and also a day when we get older....i dono how it works...are we considered a year older today or a year older on the first day of CNY? i dono, im a bit confused..can someone pls explain to me? anyway, today is also the day where people go to temple to pay their respect to wong tai sin for the wishes they previously asked for...so today, i made it a must to go...it was really really crowded...everytime i go...for several reasons:
1. u usually gets what you ask for;
2. it's a touristy place..flooded with hundreds of tourists everyday;
3. it's under renovation...space become even more limited;
4. it's the time when people pay back their respect....
i saw from the news the other day that the authority encourages ppl not to go to the temple physically especially at this time...coz they forsee that the temple will be flooded with people...and there are also a lot of people bringing food like roast chicken, roasted pig, fruits, roast pork etc....so these foods will be laid on the ground, making it even more difficult to walk...talking abt difficult to walk, i was burnt TWICE by other people's incest coz these people werent considerate enough to hold their incests high up!!! To avoid overflowing crowd, u know what the authority did? u wont believe it..hahahah...remember the singaporean movie where this guy visited the temple and made a wish and this guy asked the monk something and the monk asked him to visit http://www.guangyinio.com/ for more information? that was hiliarious...and guess what? it's happening in real life...HK authority just launched a website for WTS where u dont have to be present personally...you could put your wishes online and they will make your wishes for you...so guys, u don really have to be in HK to make your wishes at WTS...you could do it ONLINE...yahoOOOooo....but i wanna tell you guys that i havent found out the link yet...hehehehe...
