Was a Rabbit, now a Tiger!

I don't know what makes me browsing for this for there is no difference to me anyway? Am not a Chinese. But living in a multi-cultural society urges me to just get to know about it, well just for knowledge sake!

Further, it's essential for me to find more info about it so that I could blend in better and I would be able to join the conversation of my Chinese friends, colleagues and office-mates, and not fooled by them. Not that I think they've done so lah.. :-)

Well, all the while I have been convinced with the thought that I am a cunning rabbit for many of my batch right from my primary, secondary and tertiary educations friends do possess the rabbit's traits. It is off late that I starts to find more info on this as I was born on 1st Feb (which year huh.... ask me for it, aye!), which is either the Year-End of the Chinese calendar year or their New Year.

With my latest findings, as follows, I am now 80% convinced that I am a Tiger (that explains my traits.. hahaha). Perhaps I should regard myself as half-rabbit-half-tiger. That's more cool, aye!
