May Holiday China SMS

Filed under: Chinese Multi Media — Shanghai @ 9:59 am

The National [tag]May[/tag] holiday is almost at its end. Friends in [tag]China[/tag] send sms messages to wish eachother a happy holiday. Many of them consist of a funny short story that make light of life. It happens that the more popular ones are received more than once as everyone forwards them.

Here a translation of one of them (my translation so a rather bad one)

I wish,

Your joy becomes more and more, just like fake goods do

Your sorrow becomes less and less, just like interest does (interest from the bank)

Your income increases very fast, just like the price of oil

Happiness surrounds you tightly, just like advertisements surround you everywhere

Relations with your family become just as strong as the way you are stuck in the stock market

Bad luck disappears forever just like Binladen
