{ Bonfire }
Yesterday was bonfire night, one of the most celebrated non-holiday festival here.. And it has a fucking cruel origin. 5:00 PM • Sunday, November 06, 2005
In 1700s, there was this idiot trying to bomb the entire parliment house. His gunpowder plot, was to kill everyone inside including the King of Britain. However, this plot was foiled and he was caught on the 4th of nov. The King's followers started a series of torture until he was half dead but not dead yet. Then on the 5th of Nov, the poor man was tied up and stretched by 2 horses. He was torned apart and that's how he died. But it's not the end, they set him on fire after that. So the 5th of Nov, Bonfire Night, from that era on was a celebration of kiling a]the man who tried to kill the King.... By the way, apparently the guy caught was not the one who plotted it...
Fireworks everywhere. I could see it from my room, massive and extremely loud. I thought that it's a pretty cruel thing to celebrate a day when a man was killed in such a grusome way. So instead of going with my housemates to catch it, I rather stay home wathcing my beloved Korean Variety programmes.. hehehe
Welcome.
Loves.
