It was a long time ago, wasn’t it? When the Jade Emperor summoned for all the animals for a selection to represent the Zodiac cycle, it was a tough race. Do you remember tiger was just one powerful paw behind you? Or rabbit who took the underground shortcuts? And mighty dragon soaring the sky above us but was delayed as he decided to bring rain to douse the raging fires of a burning village?

I was grateful that you were willing to help me cross the river by letting me ride on your back. Old horse was too proud for that. I knew it was not right of me to cut your line for the first spot but winning this race meant a lot to me. I thought I would have gained more respect if I won. It turned out that it didn’t work that way but I have improved a great deal since then. Although sad to say, I’ll never learn to be as honest and sincere as you.

Fortunately for your good nature, you did not hold grudges against me. That silly cat is still chasing me to this day for not reminding him of the race. I truly forget – honest! He’s such a revengeful fellow, unlike you, ever so patient and forgiving.

Anyway, it was an exciting and eventful year of 2008 for me and I could really use a good holiday now, what say you?

Have a blasting year ahead and all the best!

PS: Oh by the way, I’ll be joining mylittletail as the official mascot, you’ll know where to find me right?

Best wishes,

Old Rat
