Just passed a certification exam. I was thrilled when I first got the result. In the past weeks, I had been struggling to cope with studies, work and this. It was a great relief. Then, reality set in. I realised that with such lousy score, it was worthless. Another benchmark of my incompetence.
The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)
