For as long as i can remember, the Mooncake Festival has always been celebrated by the team. It's funny that this is the only Chinese Festival that we actually celebrate, when we have never once commemorated the Dragon Boat Festival proper.
The only explanation for this has got to be the fact that the Mooncake Festival swings by September/October every year. Right in the middle of the semester. So it's a perfect excuse to break away from the books, get together and pig-out on mooncakes.
In 2000, in an effort to get both mens and womens teams being more 'friendly' to one another, both teams came together to celebrate the festival. It failed miserably. So 2001 it was just us. Duo team celebrations were then revived and continued in 2003, ok, that failed miserably too. But things seem to be slowly getting better as the years go by. Which is probably a good thing... or not?!!?!
