一路顺风

I know I haven't been diligently updating my blog for the past 10 days. Told ya i was busy! Even on valentine's day, i had meetings from morning to night. At the end of it all, i was totally drained. On the night before my flight back to singapore, my clients had an interesting dialogue.

Shanghai client: Esther, 我们祝你一路顺风,干杯!
Suzhou client: 你这个人怎么那么没学问?她是坐飞机回去,怎么可以说一路顺风? 这是很不吉利的! 你要说一路平安嘛!

I then realised the meaning of the words. Yeah, the wind was meant for the ancient times when people sat ships across seas. Now everyone, please remember not to tell me 一路顺风 anymore when i'm flying out! :)

Oh yeah, wishing one and all a very happy chinese new year! :)
